Biden's Job Approval and Favorability Ratings still highest of all, including Trump
There is no doubt that most Americans are unhappy with the state of America due to Trump's Pandemic mass-murder of at least a million Americans, Trump's extraordinarily irresponsible defunding of our Pandemic Prevention and Response Teams where they were most needed contrary to all expert warnings not to do something so dangerous and stupid, his critical year of lies about it on the world stage as if he were writing an "I Was a Pandemic-Producing World Leader" script. Well, let's say having someone else ghost write it.
Then there was the worldwide economic and supply chain collapse and inevitable hyper-inflation that Trump's astonishingly incompetent stewardship triggered.
And we'll never forget the ongoing damage done to America and the cause of democracy around the world by Trump's unprecedented attempted coup against America, trying to overturn a free and fair American election, overthrow American democracy and all that.
But apparently most Americans are smart enough not to blame Biden and the Dems for it. And the polls clearly show they must appreciate the historically positive legislation and measures Biden and the Dems have taken to pull is out of the horrific mess of everything Trump and his classic Repub policies and stewardship produced and left behind:

To update, Biden's Job Approval Rating is still higher than any other Party leader, higher than both the House and the Senate, higher than Trump's were in each of his first two years in office. The "good" Trump years, LOL. It is higher than Trump's was for his entire miserable 4 year term.
Also, Biden's Favorability Rating is still higher than jobless Trump's. And he still routinely beats 2024 Repub Front Runner candidate Trump in the hypothetical match up polls.
Oh, and more pertinent to the upcoming election, Dems continue to lead Repubs in the Generic Ballot question, something rare for the "in the White House" Party for these particular midterms.

This is totally understandable, of course
Any investor doing just the most cursory due diligence and with any awareness of economic history at all would know immediately that "Reaganomics" was one of if not THE biggest losing proposition in economics.
The Great Repub Depression, Reagan's Great Repub Recession, W's Great Repub Recession, Trump's Repub Recession, the next Great Repub Recession, the one after that, etc etc were and will all be ushered in and exacerbated by dumb Repubs cutting taxes disproportionately high on exactly the wrong people and income margins:

[QUOTE]Sterling was sent into a freefall after hitting 37-year lows against the dollar in recent weeks.
It ended Friday down nearly 3.6% against the greenback.
On the week it lost 5% and is now down 27% since just before the 2016 Brexit vote.
ING analysts said in a research note that investors are worried that the U.K. Treasury has now effectively committed to open-ended borrowing for these tax cuts.
Deutsche Bank analysts said that the price of easy fiscal policy was laid bare by the market on Friday.[/QUOTE]Oh, but Reagan and a Dem Speaker of the House once "saved" Social Security! LOL.
Yep. That was after Reagan damn near cleaned out Social Security and destroyed the rest of the USA economy by tripling the debt, skyrocketing the deficit and driving the unemployment rate into double digits for almost a year thanks to his idiotic "Reganomics" that by rights should have been called "Coolidge-Hoovernomics" because that is the Great Repub Depression / Great Repub Recession template that Repubs have been touting and applying to Crash the economy and wipe out millions of jobs ever since they discovered how effective it was for achieving that result in the 1920's.

If you're too afraid to lose, you won't achieve anything
A great discussion on change. What is needed. This is a video for ET, PVM, Spider, et al. All those that cannot recognise that they are part of the problem bcos they are so self-interested that do not even recognise that they are supporting the neo-lib status quo. FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT!

Vijay Prashad is particularly persuasive.
I must be a very patient person
Or a glutton for punishment.
I endured all 28 minutes and 28 seconds of those tired and hackneyed homilies. Where was "Love thy neighbor as thy self" and "It's always darkest before the dawn"?

Rudy going to jail this week to die there. Another attorney victim of TrumpShit
Rudy is headed to jail to die.
Strictly because he was foolish enough to grant credit to TrumpShit.
Which has left him broke and defeated.
Deservingly.
Agreed Biden presidency a total failure
[QUOTE=DramaFree11;2746974]Well said. Biden is a complete train wreck, and his staff is even worse. So sad.[/QUOTE]Agreed. Biden presidency is a complete train wreck. There never has been a president in history that has failed the American people so badly. His foreign policy has shown the world that the leader of our country is fool. USA is the only country in the world with open borders. There have been record levels of drugs from Mexico that have entered USA. Record number of criminals, terrorists and traffickers have entered USA in the last 20 months. Gas prices are still $6 in our state and over $5 a gallon in Nevada. Inflation is at 40 year high. Stock market is lower now than it was when Biden took office. USA is in a recession. Americans are suffering. The world sees this. Complete idiots can't see the truth and are in denial. Mid terms are near. Biden and democrats running for this election are counting on the socialists / democrat voters to remain stupid. Biden wants you to forget the last 20 months as if they never happened. The socialists / communist democrats are doing everything in their power to deflect blame and talk about everything and anything to try to distract the voters from the crises they created. There will be a complete idiot that will probably disagree with this truth but remember. That he is a complete idiot.
Comparing your Trump disaster to Biden success
[QUOTE=EihTooms;2746600]Has the NBER issued an official statement on whether it is or isn't currently a recession but nobody heard about it?
Trump's Fed Chair appointee is certainly trying hard to artificially cool down Biden's roaring job-creating, wage increasing economy into perhaps a mild recession or close to one. But, being originally appointed by a Repub and, worse, by Repub Donald Trump, he's not very good at his job.
But replacing him in the midst of Trump's Pandemic Crash and Recession was not really an option for Biden without making the horrific conditions Trump made of everything and left behind even worse.
Interestingly, the Dow has yet to close in Bear Market territory even once so far and the S&P 500 Index has only barely closed below 20% from its all-time closing high. That's within a small handful of percentage points of their decline under Trump in 2018, a time many delusional Trumpsters identify as the "great" part of Trump's so-called presidency before his disastrous economic decisions resulted in, you know, disaster.[/QUOTE]Comparison of Trump disaster to Biden success.
1. Stock market up 60% in 4 years compared during Trump presidency.
Stock market down 3% in 20 months during Biden presidency.
2. Gas prices up almost 100% with Biden president compared to low price of gas with Trump.
3. Inflation at 1% during Trump presidency and 9. 1% inflation in Biden presidency. Highest in 40 years.
4. No wars during Trump presidency but now war in Ukraine with Biden failed leadership.
5. Crimes up over 50% under Biden compared to Trump after Biden and democrats started defunding police.
I could go on for another 20 comments on how bad and reckless the Biden presidency has been but everyone knows this. Everyone sees this. Everyone is suffering from the Biden failed policies and presidency. There will be some fools that disagree. But they will be the dumbest fools you know.
