    President Joe Biden’s job approval rating among Democrats has tumbled 11 percentage points in the past month to 75%, the worst reading of his presidency from his own party. This drop has pushed his overall approval rating down four points to 37%, matching his personal low.

    At the same time, Biden’s approval among independents has declined four points, to 35%, while Republicans’ rating remains unchanged, at just 5%.

    =======================================================================

    So much for that blistering hot economy progressives keep touting here. The reality is Americans don't care about minimum wage jobs being added to the economy. They care about how much their gas, groceries, and other consumable goods cost. I also wonder who those 5% approving republicans are.

    so what? If the Democrat voters who post within this forum are representative of all Democrat voters, then they will vote Democrat regardless of how bad things have become. Its about party, not country.

    Tons of Democrats are against the stance on Palestine and the effort to ignore the innocents being needlessly slaughtered.

    It is good to see that Democrats don’t put blind support behind the president just because he is the temporary head of the party. Unfortunately the options come 2024 are the current administration or one that is much worse — and people will vote accordingly.

    Individuals turning against the party narrative is refreshing to see.

    Partially agree. I think voter enthusiasm is a real thing, just how relevant is the question.

    And fairly unique , too.
    The Republicans are , more and more, toeing the line on the Big Lie because they think the Big Liar will end up as their candidate.

    Republicans seem to typically rally around the individual while democrats rally around an idea.

    Oh , don’t you worry , on the DEMS side , we are more enthusiastic to defeat Trump then winning. Trump’s supper power is that he encourage DEMS and Trump hater to stand in line 11 hours and vote.

    I think you are mostly right here as well. One difference was the mail in voting and covid, which I'm not sure will exist next year. We will have to see how it all plays out. People also forget that Trump received the 2nd most votes ever in 2020, with Biden receiving the most ever. I don't see a ton of room for Biden to slip.

    you made me spit my drink with that funny post. The only idea that I see Democrat voters rally around is to vote Democrat all the time, every time.

    Mostly what I said — They endorse specific ideas that are mostly consistent.

    Republicans cannot say that

    Y’all have parties within parties that are warring with one another for failing to kiss the orange ring

    With Biden's mental deficits, the American people would be failures to re-elect that man.

    And before anyone starts their bluster about Trump, I feel the same way about him. No idea how the polls and the people continue to support him or the muppet currently residing in the White House.

    Biden is the president, obviously the party is gonna back his re-election.
    The real question is why the gop is gonna run a loser and a felon.

    You aren't wrong. I think the house has shown that to be the case.

    Actually , all the blue and purple state made “ mail in ballot” a permanent voting option. Biden need to win 3 of these 5 states – AZ, GA, MI, WI, PA. all these states have “no excuse mail in ballot” today. As a matter of fact every blue / purple state today are “ No excuse Mail in ballot state”. These state not changing “mail in ballot” policies. TX or AL or other RED state can change their “mail in ballot” policy which will only hurt the Republican.

    I don't disagree with your question, but liberals backing Biden for another term is no better. And by the way, that loser defeated Hillary Clinton. Thank the good Lord for that.

    Sure, but it took a ton of effort from local officials and we will see if the energy is matched.

    Energy comes from every speech Trump makes on campaign trail. Every time Trump go after immigrants or Muslims, or Hispanic, it makes our blood boil. Every time Trump praise HAMAS, Dems get mad and became enthusiastic. Every time Trump dine with white supremist, Dems became more determine to stand in line and vote. Every time Trump and his fellow republican debate over “ six week abortion ban or 9 weeks abortion ban”, women in Milwaukee, Detroit, Atlanta , Philadelphia , Phoenix get so mad that they ask the younger women to register to vote.

    Biden is irrelevant. It’s all about Trump.

    That must be why they had to go through so many rounds of voting during the speakership fiasco. Because it was the Republicans who all rallied around the individual Hakeem Jeffries while the Dems were voting for folks not even running. Right? You nailed that one.

    We will see. Trump is a favorite in Vegas odds. I get what you are saying, but oddsmakers have a bit more at stake than you do.

    I know I nailed it and even gave it further nuance for any individual lacking basic reading comprehension by adding “They endorse specific ideas that are mostly consistent.

    Republicans cannot say that

    Y’all have parties within parties that are warring with one another for failing to kiss the orange ring”

    But thanks for noticing bro

    If you want to participate you should at minimum follow the thread
