Biden approval ratings thread, 1.0

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Biden isn't at 55% he is at 48/37

Why do you keep citing that number as if that's the only poll ever taken? Do you trust Marist that much?

We can't see what next yr this far out but some Ds are worried about 2022/ since first Midterms are bad, a 48/37 approval rating isn't bad, it's mediocre, but the Economy must be better than it is now to get the right/track wrong track never back even again in order to have a stellar 2022.

Obama lost the 2010 midterms not because he was doing bad,  but the he didn't get the right track/wrong track number back even again til he defeated Romney.

But of course if Statehood is adopted in this term, Rs gains are negated.

D's can win in 2022/ but it's not inevitable

I agree with everything you say in this comment, but IDK why you're pushing the 48/37 number so hard. Civiqs has 47 favorable/48 unfavorable if you're looking for a farther outlier.

[Roll Roons]

Pew: Trump's approval is now at 29%, and only 60% among Republicans. Easily the worst of his presidency.

OC is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma.  Or at least most of his posts fit that description.

You can't ignore the fact that we have Covid, a Trump Impeachment and Kevin Mccarthy. Covid can spoil the D's chances, but Trump NYState Prosecution can suck all the oxygen away from Congressial Rs and Kevin Mccarthy isn't as dominant as Boehner, Ryan, Gingrich or Hassart. That's why so many Rs retired when McCarthy became Speaker

2022 can go either way

This is wild. Just wow.

[It’s so Joever]

This is wild. Just wow.

Shy Trump effect.

[President Johnson]

This is wild. Just wow.

So. much. winning.

(snip RCP approval chart)

So. much. winning.

It's obvious that Trump was on the wrong reality show; instead of The Apprentice, the best choice would have been The Biggest Loser.

[Inmate Trump]

This is wild. Just wow.

I wonder if any part of Trump now regrets running for president.  He’s mostly hated, his brand is maligned, he’s leaving office in extreme disgrace, and only a small handful of people like him.

[ProgressiveModerate]

Might just be statistical noise but Biden's favorability went up slightly in every state since I posted that last map, according to CIVIQS.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Once Biden enact policy, I am sure his approvals will go up and his Cabinet confirmed

Biden hasn't passed  a single piece of legislation

Worse, the people who most believe him can do nothing for him. Trump has always had high-end clientele as his customers (except at his casinos... and that did not turn out well).

He was completely unsuited by his personality, learning, and experience to be President. He does not understand law or history. His interpersonal skills are weak. He had no experience in politics. Contrast Eisenhower, who at least was lobbying Congress for funds for defense against the Nazi menace, and had to deal with the military system of justice. Eisenhower had much respect for the law and well understood that one could not game the law in one's favor; it was simply there.

If D's win in 2022/ this country is gonna look like Israel but instead of Conservatives leading it, D's are gonna rule with 2024/ looking likely Biden.

Insurrection has damaged the well of voters have on Rs, Trump is at 43/55 approvals and disapprovals, but 87% of RS still support him, that's why Graham and Paul said Trump will be acquitted in Impeachment

I said that the trial is all but certain to be decided by an acquittal

I will watch highlights but we as D's should not be obsessed with it, these are the same Rs that acquitted Reagan by selling arms for hostages in Iran Contra

USA Today/Suffolk University, Jan. 12-15, 1000 RV (1-month change)

Biden:

Approve 46
Disapprove 29

Trump:

Approve 41 (-4)
Disapprove 54 (+2)

If Donald Trump ran for the White House in 2024, would you vote for him?

Yes 23
No 60
Maybe 14

How do you think history will assess Donald Trump - would you say he will be viewed as a great president, a good president, a
fair president, or a failed president?

Great 15
Good 10
Fair 11
Failed 58

Mediocre approvals

[Dr Oz Lost Party!]

Trump’s final Gallup poll clocks him in at 34% approve and 62% disapprove.

George W. Bush's final Gallup poll also had him at 34%.

Trump exits office as the first President to never reach 50% approval in the Gallup poll.

[wbrocks67]

It is not surprising to me that NBC and USA Today/Suffolk both still have Trumps best #s, even when he's completely flailing right now. They've had better #s for him his entire presidency than most for whatever reason.

Also, force people to pick one or the other. Pollsters coming out with 48/37 or 46/29's are ridiculous. You either approve or disapprove. Make them pick one.

[wbrocks67]

Favorabilities:

Jill Biden 58/28 (+30)
Joe Biden 59/38 (+21)
Kamala Harris 51/39 (+12)

Biden approval on transition: 66%

[DaleCooper]

The Gallup numbers are pretty rough for Trump. Their polls have detected significant upticks in his approval during his high points, even though he never hit 50, so I think it's probably true that Trump's standing among voters has declined. His personal favorability has always been low so I don't want to say that his popularity has ever changed much, but I do think that voters' willingness to tolerate him has shifted around somewhat over his term.

 What a loser.

 That's why I think when the fever breaks and the GOP latch on to the next terrible candidate they'll act like they never supported Trump in the first place. He'll be a limousine liberal from NY who was Democrat all along and didn't follow conservatism blah blah blah.

[Inmate Trump]

George W. Bush was a better president than Donald Trump.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha
