Sefton: sefton at cutjibnewsletter.com | NBC "News" Poll: "Biden's Presidency in Peril, Declined In Every Measure"At the behest of the delusionary White House, the left is ginning up the most desperate campaign of overpraising Joe Biden -- claiming he's the most successful president in history. It's so incredible it sounds like they're being sarcastic. Adam Carolla was nigh-apoplectic over the "narcissistic sociopath" Gavin Newsom making this claim about Joe Biden. Maybe they think the key to beating Trump is to engage in Trumpian puffery, wowing listeners with a litany of dubious superlatives? I don't know. But the public isn't buying the "Joe Biden is the most successful president in history" Soviet propaganda campaign. 47% is close to where I'd say that Trump needs to be -- about 48% will win this race. "What is most concerning is the erosion of Biden's standing against Trump compared to four years ago," Democrat pollster Jeff Horwitt of Hart Research Associates told NBC News. "On every measure compared to 2020, Biden has declined. Most damning, the belief that Biden is more likely to be up to the job -- the chief tenet of the Biden candidacy -- has evaporated." He's doubling down on all of his current policies. How can he change them, given that he is, according to the White House and its surrogates, "the most successful president in the history of the United States"??! A conviction of Trump won't do it for Biden: This is tough: [B]iden's campaign made its case in 2020 on being more competent and effective, but that advantage is now squarely in Trump's favor by 16 points, according to the poll. It is a 25-point swing from June 2020 -- the height of the George Floyd riots and COVID-19 pandemic backlash.Much more at the link. I can't quote all the goodness. John Nolte: Nationally, Trump leads Biden by a stunning (in this poll -- see the closing paragraph) five points, 47 to 42 percent. That's a nine-point swing in Trump's direction since July of last year when Biden was up four, 49 to 45 percent. ...More at the link. Comments(Jump to bottom of comments)1

Illegal immigration has been widely deemed the No. 1 voting issue, according to exit polls in the early GOP primary states.
++++ It was in 2016, too. And it delivered Trump into office. At which time we made some progress, but little progress that was difficult to undo thanks to obstructionism by the Congress and Trump blinking - as the President historically almost always blinks - on a "government shutdown" play. Trump lost that battle and with it, much of his agenda. So what this time? Deliver Trump into office again, some modest improvement, and then failure theater until we can return to business as usual?

At the end of the day, the election is going to come down to a handful of states and locales, nearly exclusively controlled by Donks.
And regardless if Trump wins, it's simply going to be a holding action from the ever leftward ratchet. We are being ruled by an evil, power hungry party on one hand and hamstrung and sold down the river by a goofball, illegitimate party on the other.

Low unemployment, record stock market, inflation decreasing in most sectors. Yeah, let's go back to unstable Trump. Threats to other countries over trade, tariffs imposed because Trump gets feeling hurt, threats to fire government/Federal workers that don't pass Trump loyalty test, corrupt Trump cabinet members, etc. Biden's economy is strong and stable. If somehow Biden doesn't win in November, it won't be Biden that failed democracy. It will be democracy that failed Biden. And that due to free speech meaning free lies. In this poll, Latinos are FOUR percent of those recorded, which I find to be one hell of a flaw. The great unsaid that really needs to be examined is the impact a possible President Kamala Harris is having on Biden's numbers.

Polls do not reflect public opinion. Polls are used to sway public opinion.
Posted by: Diogenes at February 05, 2024 12:24 PM (W/lyH) ++++ Yes. There are perhaps some legitimate public polling outfits, but I question even the minority that are often considered to be "honest." The parties and the candidates maintain monstrously expensive polling apparatuses, and their polling machines are jealously guarded secrets that deliver for them strategic benefit. The processes are secret, the methods are secret and - vitally - the *results* are secret. This costs an absolute fortune and is the focus of monumental effort and commitment of resources by the parties and by the major candidates. Why? Why do the parties and candidates maintain their own gigantic and expensive polling systems if the public polls are good? This is needless expense if the public polling complex is actually accurate and generates useful data. The first party to quit doing it would see a massive relative increase in its war chest. Yet, they don't quit doing it. And since they don't quit doing it, a solidly logical conclusion is, "the public polls aren't accurate or useful."

On the general question of favorability, only 36 percent view Biden favorably, while 54 percent view him unfavorably. That puts him underwater -18 points.

dough to pass around. We were discussing this yesterday. I read a Trump quote to day that seems pretty unequivocal that she's on the way out. I hope he does it soon enough that it won't disrupt the GOP's election efforts, such as they now are. Trump had been asked by Fox News host Maria Bartiromo about Ronna McDaniel, who has been facing withering attacks from some Trump allies, including the group Turning Point, which was part of an unsuccessful effort to oust her last year. “I think she did great when she ran Michigan for me. I think she did OK, initially, in the RNC. I would say right now, there’ll probably be some changes made,” Trump said on FOX News Channel’s Sunday Morning Futures. http://tinyurl.com/5n6krtk7 Posted by: Archimedes at February 05, 2024 12:35 PM (CsUN+) 140

The reason Trump won in 2016 was that the Dums thought the Drunken Shrill was gonna win easily, without any more than the normal fraud. All the polls showed yuge leads for her. They were dead wrong.

Biden didn't win by millions of votes.
He won by less than 50,000 spread over 6 states. And they had to ballot stuff, mail-in vote and even shut down counting to tabulate in secret to get that win. 2-3 of those flip and Trump wins. Unfortunately, GA looks like it may be the only one to fix those cheats. They're being dragged kicking and screaming and the GOPe may yet prevent it. WI looks like they are going to get their supreme court to reverse all the rulings of the prior court on the illegality of 2020. OTOH, Trump never led in the polling of those states in 2020. No one who voted for him in 2020 isn't voting for him in 2024.

The cheat has to be stopped, but many states have opted for increasing the cheat. I mean, preventing election monitors from seeing the counting in Michigan in 2020...leaky toilet in GA, and all the other hijinks. Legality/Illegality means nothing to the Left, it's just another tool in their toolbox.
Florida has done yeoman's work in curtailing the cheat in their state and it shows. All red states should follow Ron's lead on this. Posted by: jim (in Kalifornia) at February 05, 2024 12:49 PM (ynpvh) 251
223 The media will not go after Biden now, because at this point even the LIVs will ask why they haven't done this before...
Posted by: Darrell Harris I think a defining features of LIVs is that they don't ask questions, so at least *on this point* there is no reason why the media can't start pressing against Biden. Posted by: She Hobbit (out and about in Middle Earth) at February 05, 2024 12:46 PM (dnapV) I'd generally agree on this, but I think that this time the reason that Biden's poll numbers have hit the skids is precisely because he's now losing the LIVs.

Nikki Haley… if she’d have taken a breath and paused to think for a moment, could’ve bowed out after NH and endorsed Trump and left herself sitting pretty for 2028. She could’ve claimed she beat all the other repubs except Trump. We don’t like her around here but amongst standard republicans living in 2003 she’d be looking good. Instead she decided to self-immolate so I conclude her purpose all along in running was to damage Trump. She knew she never had a prayer….

Voting machines and software up to snuff? Election officials have had, or will have taken their ethics training before the big night?
Yea, about all that.... Posted by: Martini Farmer -------- Opsec would indicate that discretion about what your plans to combat voter fraud will be. In some cases, non partisan groups are teh better play such as the folks that are combing through voter rolls for fake, dead, moved registrants. You then move at the local and state levels to have those registrants disqualified and removed from the rolls. Both Ohio and Florida moved decisively red after cleansing the voting rolls. Ken Blackwell gets the nod for Ohio and RDS for Florida. Posted by: whig at February 05, 2024 01:13 PM (ysVwb) 403

Hundreds of reporters received a tour of the United Center Thursday as the DNC ramps up planning for the August convention. Security? In part, “… We also have as our top priority, the safety and security of our delegates, our guests and all of the media covering them. We’re working very closely with the United States Secret Service, who coordinates all of the various federal state and local law enforcement agencies,” ..." Money for healthcare, child care credits, education, unearned income, housing down payments, apartment subsidies...How do we get around those giveaways? After the border bill passes, and one will, the great majority of illegals will be juggled around the nation according to education, class, 'public need,' etc. By 2030, who will remember?

61 The good news is that by all accounts, Michelle Obama isn't interested in running.
She would be a devastating candidate (the AWFLs love her), but the problem the Deep State has is that they can't shove Kamala Harris aside, unless they can replace her with a minority, preferably female. ______ Michelle being on every fashion magazine cover only proves how fashionable and beautiful she is. At least to a vast majority of women this seems to be effective brainswashing. As an example, I was part of a conversation where women were praising the exotic beauty of Zendaya. The guys were not having it. She's unremarkable at best. The women were shocked that the men didn't agree, since, well, everybody agrees Zendaya is the new beauty standard.

Followed up by a poll that shows Biden with a 42% approval rating. Who are these morons?

Ace, I rarely comment anymore. (Strictly a matter of good life obligations - new parenthood, etc.)
I'd just like to point out that unless the media can fool the voters into thinking the economy is going great guns, these bad polling numbers are likely to get worse for Biden as the election day deadline approaches. Right now, Trump represents a muddled abstraction. Significant numbers of voters aren't aware that his nomination is a fait accompli. When it becomes broadly announced and accepted that Trump has actually secured the nomination, Trump's numbers will go up even more. When Trump nominates Ben Carson, Trump's numbers will jump up even more. And finally, when Trump starts leveling criticism at Biden on numerous fronts, it will become the public's expectation that Biden answer those criticisms. Then we'll see landslide proportion polling.

470 Abbot needs to start sending illegals to Philadelphia. Get the black population there riled up.
Posted by: Dr. Pork Chops & Bacons Already here. And Philly thinks it's the UN thanks to FJB & his ilk. The city developed non-profits years ago and brought in, for instance, Puerto Ricans en mass (then dumped them on smaller cities such as Allentown, Reading, Chester) plus, for decades, there has been a Liberian connection. Ergo, there's a substantial migrant population & many are not legal. Eventually they're nudged into a few of the ring counties, especially following the Legislative Redistricting a handful of years ago. (And, it's back!) There's a Philly Africantown Project, btw. Like Baltimore, the general population believes thoroughly believes ALL Black Lives Matter though they often fear for their own lives & stay out of the areas of most migrant populations other than, maybe, to grocery shop. There's also a substantial increase of Black-Latino families in the city v. the Black-White families more common in the ring counties. (Yeah, the latter included anyway in the 2020 mostly peaceful protests.) Philly learned dump & nudge from NYC & Newark, NJ.

48% isn't good enough. The dems have now maintream'ed and institutionalized fraud in the election. Any swing state will go into "we are still counting the ballots" mode until they have generated enough Dem votes to win. Leftists are always one step ahead of the right, even if the right clamped down on every cheat the left used the last two cycles the left would have come up with new ones the right isn't prepared for, always one step ahead. The right tries to WIN VOTES. The left focuses on GENERATING BALLOTS. There is a HUGE difference and the left will win every time until people who do election fraud go to jail, which will never happen because the left owns the judicial system as well.

Your really have to appreciate either the balls or cowardice of Lankford. The guy goes on Fox and lies right to their face, and those idiots sit there and wag their heads. The text of the bill is now available, and here's this dunce, in from of a herd of buffoons lying right to them and the Amarican people. Do they have this guys family tied up somewhere and he's being coerced, or is he really that out of touch and so committed to the deep state that he just doesn't give a fig. I'm guessing it's the latter.
Posted by: Marcus T at February 05, 2024 01:47 PM (T0jQj) My guess would be that most of the members of Congress who take part in these "negotiations" never get a chance to read the bill and are there to run flack in the hopes that the uniparty will smile on them and make them richer.
