Angela Merkals leadership role in Germany has outlived two of my dogs like many other countries leaders. And now I'm seeing Joe Bidens poll numbers sliding off a cliff dispite everything he's already accomplished. And his numbers are crashing so fast the very Tyrant we removed from office less than a year ago is showing better poll numbers and could possibly even win if an election was held this month, WTF is wrong with the American people???

(21,819 posts)Of course, it is the poll with the crap numbers that is a confirmed "outlier" that gets the attention of the media.
Other polls show him in the 48 to 50% approval range. Not as strong as at the start, but still higher than anything Trump managed.
We are in jeopardy, but passage of Biden's agenda would be a big boost in our favor.

(51,059 posts)50% approval means what you think it means.
Spell check would help with those spelling and punctuation issues.

(2,263 posts)..uninformed, impatient and self-gratifying. They draw conclusions based on what they experience, what they hear someone say or whatever they saw on the six o'clock news. Anytime any particular individual is upset about some thing, it's the President's fault. Who else they going to blame?
The Vox link offers explanations for Biden's sliding popularity, including the Afghan withdrawal and Delta variant. I'm sure he also gets blamed for increased gas prices, increased prices in general and the screwed up supply/demand situation.

(549 posts)After passing landmark legislation with the ACA. America could finally get health ins and Insurance Giants couldn't pick and choose for profit anymore leaving millions out in the cold with no health ins and the chance of a cancer diagnosis making them bankrupt. Only months later America turned to the Repulican party of all parties because they were annoyed that that ACA wasn't good enough and healthcare wasn't completely free of any costs to them.
