    Ok, either he’s out of touch with reality or his people are telling him what he wants to hear. I suspect both are true, especially the part about being told what he wants to hear. His people tell him he’s doing a great job, he’s adored by the masses and all of his policies are working perfectly. And they say that as they shove another EO in front of him to sign that he knows nothing about.

    I mean to be fair what exactly is he supposed to say lol? I honestly can't recall any President ever actually acknowledging their low approval rating. Members of Congress do it sometimes because they are 1 of 535 people there so you can skew it as if the low approval rating for Congress isn't talking about "me".

    But when a poll comes out saying "YOU suck", not "The Executive Branch", but "YOU", then there really isn't anything he can say about it except brush it off like all other President's do. I don't expect the guy to get up there and say yeah I understand that majority of everybody in the country regardless of political affiliation thinks I'm doing a poor job and I'll work twice as hard from now on to acknowledge their concerns and try to do better.

    No President ever says that lol...On a positive note at least people are finally waking the hell up and paying attention to the guy they decided to put in charge of the free world. He's getting written off, 2 years ago this guy was untouchable teflon protected by every major media outlet in the country regardless of what he did. Now even the MSM is allowing "controversial" stories about him to be published and that's saying something.

    Quite often Biden has ignored questions or simply laughed them off, turned his back and walked away. He could have simply said the polls were wrong or he disagreed with them. Instead he confronts the reporter and gives him the insanely unrealistic poll number of 92%.

    This guy has been in politics for 50 years, he should know how to do this.

    He's playing politics thats the thing. If he himself wants to run for re-election in 2024 then he has to portray himself as popular even if it's blatantly obvious by every single metric available that he actually isn't. Sure exaggerate but the 92% thing was pretty stupid. If he came out now and acknowledged the actual polls then he'd be written off as a lame duck President a mere year and a half into his first term as President. The Democrat Party has already moved on, they aren't running him again they know he's screwed but what he also doesn't want to do is publicly acknowledge that he's screwed and then hand the keys to Congress over to the Republicans in November. That would be a recipe for disaster for him.

    I don't think he's actually senile to the point where he genuinely believes 92% of Liberals support him and would vote for him again. He's just playing politics like they all do. 92% of people of any demographic never support ANYTHING, nobody actually believes numbers like that when they say them.

    I agree with both of your posts, but for as long as Biden has been in politics he should have known better than to give the answer he gave. It wasn’t long ago when the Easter Bunny saved him, had he waited a bit today someone probably would have saved him again. Looking at the video again it doesn’t seem like his handlers or his wife was around to bail him out.

    To the first sentence of your second paragraph, I believe Biden thinks he’s at 92%, otherwise why bother to confront the guy and try to correct him?

    Trump supposedly tried to flat out overthrow the government according to the government and there's a live public hearing going on about it as we speak and his approval rating is still higher than Biden...

    I mean that's seriously saying something....

    I like Trump and his policies and what I’m about to say may sound kind of shallow. Even if what the left says about Trump is true, and I don’t believe it is, Trump didn’t hurt me, my family or my country, Biden has. In fact, Trump’s presidency didn’t personally hurt most Americans, yet many Americans for some reason still prefer the guy who is hurting them. Thankfully that number is shrinking.

    Had this same discussion with a family member recently and asked them this question. I asked him to name a list of policies that Trump implemented that directly negatively effected him and he couldn't give me one. The argument quickly shifted to "I don't like the guy himself" and noted plenty of Trumps infamous character traits that he wasn't a fan of. I said fine, but that wasn't the question I asked. I didn't ask if you like the character of Trump I asked what did he do to YOU. I can present a list of policies that Biden and his appointees and the current Congress have implemented that have directly effected me in a negative way.

    And hilariously so could the family member I was talking to....Go figure...

    On a positive note he has no love for Biden anymore. More and more people are starting to see the reality of what they did out of pure emotion in 2020. As I said, the media and the government is currently trying to paint a picture that Trump was attempting to literally overthrow the government itself and subvert Democracy and free and fair elections. A lot of people still do buy into what CNN and MSNBC says as gospel truth and plenty of people even believe that absolutely absurd and hilarious story that Trump supposedly tried to hijack the motorcade and take the wheel and speed towards the Capital lol...

    Even with all that going on Trump is STILL more favorable than Biden right now. I mean you seriously have to be absolutely terrible if a guy can supposedly do all of that ^^^^ and STILL be more popular than you lol.

    It was absolute insane for Biden to say 92% of democrats support him. Not only was it wrong, no one will believe him, even his supporters.

    You should my Facebook stuff, it’s constant memes and anti Trump posts and if I chime in I’m gang tackled. Asking them to say something positive about Biden gets me responses that would never be allowed on this board. And some of the wacko and insane stuff they believe is wacko and insane. I have no idea if they get their news from the MSM or just believe the memes they see on FB. It’s crazy.

    I’d say depends on who Biden’s opponent is. If it’s Trump vs. Biden, 92% of Democrats state they’d vote for Biden 4% for Trump. Now Trump would get 85% of the Republican vote, 7% to Biden. Although the same poll shows independents going for Trump 39-37.


    https://int.nyt.com/data/documenttools/us0722-crosstabs-nyt071122/33ffa85627ee4648/full.pdf


    A rematch is something a majority of Americans don’t want. 71% don’t want Biden to run again, 61% don’t want Trump.


    What’s worse is this - Sixty percent said they would consider a moderate independent candidate for president if Biden and Trump ended up running against each other in the next presidential cycle, compared to 40% who said they would not consider it.


    Broken down by party, 53% of Republicans polled and 64% of Democrats said they would consider a moderate independent candidate in that situation.

    The major parties need to give us voters a break and don’t run either one.

    I like Trump, I really do. And my wife adores him. But I think the best bet for republicans is DeSantis because Trump will bring out the democrats who might never vote were it not to vote against Trump. They vote against the person and not the policies.

    From my experience it really is the MSM. At least as far as my personal family is concerned they still genuinely believe that organizations like CNN are honest media with no bias and have no ulterior motive. It's so obvious in fact that whenever a family member of mine calls to talk to me on the phone about something political I always know exactly what they are going to discuss because it's the latest narrative CNN pushed out.

    For what it's worth I tend to give most of them a pass. Most of the more so called "political" members of my family are elderly and have very little experience with the internet or technology or any of that. They really do get nearly all of their information purely from major news outlets (except Fox, they think Fox is the racist news network). They don't watch youtube or read online articles or have any real idea how to even use something like Facebook. They get all of their "expertise" from CNN because they genuinely believe that the CNN of today is the same news network as it was in the 80s and 90s. So if CNN says it then it's honest and true, and unless CNN publishes it then it didn't happen because "if it was a story of any real world importance then they would cover it and tell the public about it".

    The funny thing is that my family and I actually AGREE on most social issues. They are just so brainwashed by emotion fed to them by what they believe is honest news that they can't stomach admitting to themselves that they like Trumps policies over Biden. These people are traditional Democrats, ask them about ANY "Progressive" talking point and you'd think you were talking to a MAGA supporter. But if the mainstream news says MAGA is racist then MAGA is racist, and Biden is "good". The only saving grace is that even with all of this media manipulation even my own family is starting to see through the bullcrap. My Aunt called me a couple weeks ago to talk and about 30 seconds into the conversation said "This stupid fool Biden did you see...". I said yeah well that's your boy, you voted for him I didn't..."Yeah but it's better than that racist ass Trump".

    Not ideal but at least we are making progress. Sure they are still brainwashed into believing Trump is a racist but at least they are now able to say "This stupid fool Biden" whereas last year Biden was supposedly their savior who could do no wrong. The nation is waking up too. Trump gets 24/7 negative press from the MSM, Biden has the entirety of the MSM playing protective defense for him through his primaries and through his entire term as President up until recently. And Biden is STILL less favorable than Trump right now...I love that, that shows that people are beginning to see with their own actual eyeballs and seek out alternative sources of information outside of what the left wing news networks pump out. That's a positive thing.

    Only twice that I can honestly recall. I don't remember in detail but it once was something about how I guess he or one of his companies hired some Mexican's to do some work on the property and didn't pay them what was agreed upon or something. The other time was Trump's infamous speech to the black community where he said "What do you have to lose?". They didn't take too kindly to that. I for one argued the same thing for years and will continue to do so to this day....Was he WRONG?!

    Funny thing is they actually agree, seriously...Their response was "Well yeah but I mean he didn't have to say it like that".

    The majority of the criticisms they have against Trump is that "he is an *******". My Uncle always points to the infamous clip of Trump mocking the disabled person during his speech that day. Well at least what appeared to be him mocking that guy. The reality is that he always does that "disabled hand gesture thing" when poking fun at people he thinks are stupid and it wasn't specifically intended to poke fun at the mans actual disability. Extremely poor timing I will say...But I use that clip coupled with dozens of other clips of Trump being "Trump" and tell them look see! Trump isn't a racist, he isn't a xenophobe, he isn't any of that. He is an EQUAL OPPORTUNITY ******* lol. Yes I will admit the guy is sort of an *******, but it's not personal to any specific race or gender or anything. If Trump doesn't like you or thinks you are attacking him then he roasts you whether that's calling Rosie O'Donnell a fat pig or saying one of his rival candidates has small manhood. It has nothing to do with your skin color or gender, not saying it's a GOOD thing but Trump trashes EVERYBODY EQUALLY....

    Once again I can actually give real world legitimate examples of things Joe Biden has said that I felt were flat out racist. Not to me specifically because I don't get offended by anything but if we are making the argument about racism then Biden takes the cake by a long shot if we want to show actual receipts.

    Watch Bidens infamous speech about young black males and crime that he gave to the Senate in the 90s. Super predators.
    Watch Bidens clip of him saying Poor kids are just as smart as White kids
    Watch Bidens clip of him calling the Hall of Fame pitcher Satchel Paige "a great negro"

    That's off the top of my head. So yeah once again folks can "think" all they want about the other guy. I have actual receipts for the crap Biden says about people who look like me.

    Just imagine if Trump sat there and decided that he was qualified to tell black people whether they were really black or not based on who they voted for..... Just imagine how many heads would have exploded.

    Biden is seriously an old school institutional racist and they don't give a damn

    I think it depends on what he means by 92% would vote for him. In a primary with good alternatives? Nobody would get 92% of liberal votes. Against a Trump or Trump-like candidate in the general? 92% of liberals who vote would be realistic. With most of the remaining 8% going to joke or other 3rd party candidates

    Which would make Democrats about the most uneducated party on the planet since after 6 years their batting average for criminal claims vs indictments is 0/20,000.
    I would imagine you're proud of that? lol
