Quinnipiac Poll: Biden Crashes All the Way Through The Floor, Hits Lows Not Thought Possible-- 33% Support

Because 38% of the country is lockstep straight-ticket Democrat, one would think that 38% or so would be the absolute rock-bottom level of support for a Democrat president.


The Q-poll had Brandon at 36% last time. It was thought then he could only go up from there.

Nope.

Let's Go Brandon, indeed.


Joey Garrison
@joeygarrison

New from @QuinnipiacPoll:

Biden's approval rating is down to 33%, with 53% disapproving of his job performance.

That's a 3-percentage-point decline from his 36% approval rating in the same poll in November. The new poll was taken Jan. 7 to Jan. 10.

It's a triple-whammy for Biden. His handling of ...

- the economy: 34% approve, while 57% disapprove;
- foreign policy: 35% approve, while 54% disapprove;
- the response to the coronavirus: 39% approve, while 55% disapprove.

And this is from the very, very left-leaning Quinnipiac, as reported by the "Let's Add the P" Groomer Advocacy Newsletter USAToday.

The poll, conducted Jan. 7 though Jan. 10 and released Wednesday, found 33% of all 1,313 adults surveyed approve of Biden's job performance, while 53% disapprove. Ten percent did not offer an opinion.

That means they also disapprove but are dyed-in-the-wool leftwingers who don't want to add to the negative ratings.

The poll found wavering support among Biden's own party, with 75% of Democrats approving of Biden's job performance and 14% of Democrats disapproving. More than half of political independents, 57%, said they disapprove of Biden's job performance, while just 25%in that crucial voting bloc said they approve. Biden is getting virtually no crossover support from Republicans, with 95% saying they disapprove of his job and 2% approving.

That 2%? The professional grifters of NeverTrump and assorted other whores and shiftless criminals, perverts, pederasts and sex-pests who are paid by Democrats.

For most of his presidency, Biden's handling of the COVID-19 pandemic had been his top polling strength. But the new poll found his support in this area has cratered, with 39% of Americans saying they approve of Biden's response to the coronavirus, compared to 55% who disapprove.

I just got a statement from Covid: "I'm going to shut down Joe Biden."

The poll also shows growing Insurrection Disaffection.


@ggreenwald

"Fifty percent say the storming of the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021 was an attack on democracy that should never be forgotten, while 44 percent say too much is being made of the storming of the U.S. Capitol and it's time to move on."

So basically just Democrats care.

Americans don't like 1/6, but clearly aren't anywhere near as obsessed as the media, and it's declining.

In August: " 57 percent said it should never be forgotten and 38 percent said it was time to move on."

Now 44% say: too much is being made, move on.

More from Greenwald:

Biden's unpopularity spreads across almost every demographic group, except self-identified Dems. Even 27% of Black voters disapprove. And he's deeply unpopular among independents, young people and Hispanics.

More Americans believe the GOP is more committed to principles of the Constitution over individual politicians (36/56) than believe this about the Democratic Party (30/62) -- so the exact opposite of the primary media narrative about the GOP waging war on the Constitution.

In the same poll during the same time in his presidency (Quinnipiac, 1/2018 ), Trump's approval rating was at 38/57 -- 5 points higher than Biden.

48% approved of Trump's handling of the economy after his first year versus 34% for Biden: a 14-point gap.

Among other lessons, these numbers show how quickly the dominant wing of corporate media is losing its grip on power and the dissemination of information. The business model they chose worked for awhile - let's talk only to Dems, feed them what they want -- but now it's a prison.

Boy, Sinema and Manchin must be really sweating that political pressure Biden's bringing to bear against them, huh?

Biden tried to pop by mcconnells office but McConnell just told us they "did not connect"

The president with the most votes in history can't get a meeting with McConnell, and can't get Stacy Abrams to show up for an event with a free buffet.

This was why Biden tried to declare victory over covid last summer.

It's also why I find the whole thing so hilarious now. It wasn't Republicans who denied him the easiest layup of a massive political victory in the modern era, it was his own base that refused to let go.

And because of that, Biden's dead in the water politically. It is to laugh.

Tester is the biggest mystery in American politics to me. I can understand winning the first time by pretending to be a centrist, moderate Dem. But he got re-elected TWICE as someone who voted 100% of the time with Obama and 100% against Trump. How do you do that and win 2 re-elections in fucking Montana?

And yes, Montana has trended more liberal as California locusts started invading. But still it is a pretty red state overall. Trump easily won it twice. And then they turn around and vote for Tester?

This shit makes no sense to me and never will.

Likewise. I like the guy, but I don't worship him, and I never trusted the vaccines because (a) rushed*, (b) given a pass on safety testing due to public fear and political pressure, and (c) immunity to liability. That was just ordinary public choice thinking, before we get into any Rainbow Six scenarios.

*or so I thought at the time, though now I think they may have some years to work on them.

Trump is stuck on the "vaccine" being a tremendous accomplishment, unfortunately for him he still doesn't see the totality of the op that was run against him.

And what Ann is erroneously alluding to is a fiction created by scumbags in the MSM to drive a wedge between him and Ron DeSantis.

I've run into people like this as well. Trying to split the power in government isn't completely ridiculous - but you have to understand the state of congress and the president.

I remember in 2008 exit polling found that most D voters thought the Republicans controlled congress AND a major reason for the vote was to throw the bums out. And this is the idiocy we have to deal with.

We should have a simple test to vote: Name the President, the Speaker of the House, Majority leader in the Senate, all of your current representatives AND at least one SC judge or...no voting.

But he's awful on Covid. Always has been. Just as anti-science as anyone out there. "Masks are patriotic." His inability to modify his position on vaccines even after they've proved to be a big disappointment. Etc.

And if Trump had won re-election and the roles were reversed - and we had massive Dem resistance to vaccination, as Dems promised - I don't doubt for a moment that he'd be just as amenable to mandates or other coercive measures as Dems now are. Whatever Trump is, he's not a small government conservative.

On a macro level, you absolutely come out with the vaccine. The world would still be ground to a halt if he didn't. On a micro level, it's up to your personal risk analysis, and should be a choice. If it turns out to be deleterious, that's not on Trump, but on the scientists. Trump's a lot of things, but we know he's not a microbiologist, for goodness sake.

I don't get people who complain about Trump. The guy had to face down the FBI, CIA, IRS and the freaking Pentagon! His own generals were busy sucking up the Chi-Coms between countermanding his direct orders.

People say he should have made better personnel choices, but the scope of the betrayal is so vast that it staggers the mind.

If someone posted half of what we now know as confirmed, verified facts on this blog in 2018, people would have denounced them as a lunatic.

He needs DeSantis to protect him in Florida...and he needs DeSantis for support (just like DeSantis needs him)...

Trump knows an attack that would split the party, so he's not gonna do that at DeSantis unless DeSantis makes a Cruz-level mistake...then, we'd again go to the "Trump is only being honest" well and he'd get no blowback...

Trump is the 800lb. gorilla in the GOP, and everyone - especially Heavy D - knows it. DeSantis is 44 years old, and he knows he will be POTUS one day; if not in 2024, then in 2028. No need for DeSantis to play the heavy right now. If he runs in '24, it's to Trump's right, and that's not a negative for DeSantis. At all.

Trump has said that. I don't take what Trump says on faith. He's a politician, and he's not really a conservative of long-standing, let alone a small-government guy. He has the luxury of maintaining this it's your-choice- position because he's not in charge. I don't think it springs from any commitment to individual liberty or personal autonomy.

478 Trump shouldn't run, but will. He'll be too old for the presidency by then and that means his administration will be even more about Jared and Ivanka triangulating against the base (i.e., us) and steering him towards things they hope won't result in other rich people hating them.

When he was filming Politically Incorrect in NYC, he would walk out of his studios in downtown NYC, go get a beer or some food and interact with actual normal human beings. There, he would get sane and normal feedback and reactions from real people.

When he moved to California, the studios were off the beaten path, he only connected with and interacted with hollywood freaks and baby molesters, and lost all semblance of normality and contact with sane, real people.

But he got re-elected TWICE as someone who voted 100% of the time with Obama and 100% against Trump. How do you do that and win 2 re-elections in fucking Montana?

And yes, Montana has trended more liberal as California locusts started invading. But still it is a pretty red state overall. Trump easily won it twice. And then they turn around and vote for Tester?

This shit makes no sense to me and never will.

Yes, that YUGE bloated balance sheet is the hard place to the rock of inflation. If they start raising rates, that can start a cascade, which will lower the price of all those bonds. That is the market starts bidding up rates itself, at rapid pace.

At that point, the Fed will have truly lost control, and suffer balance sheet "loss". That is what they fear.

If they made some panic move to try to stop that, the markets would see the "FED IS PANICKING!!!" and everything would shit the bed.

558 532 New blow for Hunter Biden: Ex-wife Kathleen Buhle will release damning memoir in run-up to midterms about breakdown of their 24-year marriage, his affair with Beau's widow and the 'heavy toll' of his sex, drugs and strip club addictions

Tucker Carlson was Hunter's neighbor, and he and Kathleen tried to get him sober for years. I found out from a recent Charlie Kirk interview that Tucker stopped drinking about 20 years ago, so he really felt for Hunter's struggles with addiction.

Posted by: ace

Part of the success of the Russia Hoax was it was basically designed to tug on residual Russian hatred left over in the security state. Strzok, Page, Comey, McCabe were all (even in their own minds) considered to be soft Republican-ish types at one point in time since they were foreign policy hawks (i.e., they didn't trust Russia). "I voted for Reagan against Dukakis!" Those types are certainly not anti-war or even really leftists (though now that they have books to sell and CNN gigs to get, they'll spout whatever lefty nonsense requested).

A lot of this is going to depend on contract/tariff lengths, and when those contracts or tariffs expire.

Sometimes you can get a surprise retroactive bill if the contract or tariff allows for that. I got burned that way once... had the "level payment" deal where your bill is the same every month. At the end of the period, they said, "Oh, gee, natural gas doubled in price since you signed up for that. Here's your retroactive bill for the year.". This was during Gulf War II.

I was not amused.

Households consuming more than 2,000 kilowatt hours per month can get compensation worth about 2,000 kronor ($220) per month for the three months December-February. Some 1.8 million households are affected, the government said.
