He’s telling lies and criticizing members of his own party, so it’s no surprise President Biden’s approval ratings are dropping to catastrophic levels. The recent Quinnipiac poll shows the president’s approval at 33% overall, 25% among independents, 28% among Latinos, and 24% approval with young Americans.
There’s a laundry list of reasons for these low numbers, including the fact that the Democrats are sucked into a left-wing agenda that the country doesn’t want. Look at the voting rights bill which is about to fail. More than 80% of the country believes we should require voters to present photo identification; the legislation would put an end to that.
Americans are also extremely worried about inflation, but the Democrats are still pushing the Build Back Better bill which would increase the money supply and drive up inflation.
On top of all of that, Biden can’t stop spreading falsehoods. During a recent speech to a civil rights group at Morehouse College in Atlanta, he recalled getting arrested. The Washington Post fact checked him, said it’s not true, and gave him four Pinocchios, the most you can get. This wasn’t the first time the President fabricated his arrest.
And you have to wonder, I mean, what’s going on in his head that he keeps making up things that are total falsehoods?
During that same speech in Atlanta, Biden called Georgia’s new voting laws restrictive and equated its supporters with Bull Connor, Jefferson Davis, and George Wallace. As my daughter, Jackie Cushman, pointed out in her column, these three are all Democrats.
So the three people that Biden warned Republicans not to be like, in fact, all Democrats, and it’s his party’s tradition of segregation and slavery, not the Republican party. The Republican party was founded as the party of freedom.
I think it’s that kind of thing, the combination of mismanagement of the economy, looking very weak and incompetent in foreign policy, and pursuing issues that most Americans oppose. All those are becoming, I think, a huge hurricane of negative consequence, which could really shape the 2022 election.
