Biden Dropping Like a Rock

Timothy Birdnow

Looks like a lot of voters - even a lot of Democrats - are suffering buyer's remorse for having chosen Captain Peachfuzz Biden as their Presidente'.

According to polling by Rasmussen:

Trump would destroy Biden were the election held today.

Of course, Mr. Trump won the last election handily but had it stolen from him.

Biden's poll numbers had been dropping even before the Afghanistan charlie foxtrot. The endless Covid restrictions and rising inflation thanks to Biden's massive spending (and no doubt the "infrastructure" plan too) had led to a steady decline in poll numbers.

As Western Journalism observes:

Ballotpedia’s Scott Rasmussen offered another reason why Americans are souring on Biden.

"Fifty percent of voters say that illegal immigration is a crisis,” Rasmussen said, according to WSET-TV. "This is a challenge for the Biden administration because they don’t want to see it as a crisis.”

(Scott Rasmussen is no longer associated with the poll of the same name.)

And a poll from June suggested the public was souring on Mr. Biden.

According to this article in Breitbart:

Reuters/Ipsos polling suggestsa "growing number of Americans disapprove of Biden’s leadership on the economy, gun violence and taxation, with the biggest decline coming within Biden’s Democratic Party.”

Forty-eight percent of respondents "said they approved of Biden’s handling of the economy, which is down 4 points from a similar survey that ran in April. The number of Americans who disapproved of Biden’s economic record rose 4 points to 43%.”

Only 35 percent of Americans believe the economy is going in a positive direction. Forty-four percent are"very concerned” about inflation.

The president slipped 7 points among Democrats since April on economic issues.
Biden has also risen six points, to 15 percent, among Democrats who disapprove of his economic performance. "That includes an 11-point drop in approval among Democrats under 40 years old, an 8-point drop in approval among minority Democrats and Democrats without a college degree,” according to the poll.

Biden’s sinking numbers come as inflation is the foremost economic concern for Americans, topping taxes, unemployment, and interest rates, a June 23 poll indicated.

And this is just the beginning. Mr. Biden has had wonderful press, but he is pretty much AWOL on every issue. When he does deign to do press conferences he has cherry picked questions and often just ignores hot topics. In his conference during the chaos in Afghanistan he spoke about forcing states to adopt masking mandates and he ignored questions about what was happening to American citizens and the American military.

Frankly, I am amazed at how high Biden's numbers remain. I don't believe they are as high as they are being presented. But even then they will come down unless something changes. I don't see what that will be.
