Biden More Popular Among Democrats Than Trump Was Among Republicans

[Secretary of State Liberal Hack]

Considering how much people talked about how shallow and unentushisatic pepple's support for Biden was, his approval ratings basicaly show him being beloved by pretty much every democrat with approval ratings higher than Trumps among republicans.

He began his term this winter with an approval rating of 98 percent among Democrats, according to Gallup. This represents a remarkable measure of partisan consensus — outpacing even the strongest moments of Republican unity during the presidency of Mr. Trump, whose political brand depended heavily on the devotion of his G.O.P. base.

Donald Trump was always a uniquely unpopular president; all of the liberal screeching about "oMg tHe GoP hAs bEeN cApTuReD bY tRuMp!!1!" was sound and fury - Trump had multiple, high-ranking members of his own party in Congress regularly and vocally disagree with him

This is why we must have the Queen in there.

I really don't care much for this kumbaya politic. 

[Sir Mohamed]

The difference though is that Mr. Trump's following is largely a cult of personality, while Biden's supporters just like his policies and personal style. If he had just 10% of Trump's scandals, his support among Dems would drop substantially.

He hasn't done much, except get a 1400 Stimulus check, and give us factory jobs that have come back from the Recession. white collar jobs like teaching jobs or Lawyers aren't produced yet

He needs to do more, I am not totally satisfied but he is much better than Trump and his rants with QAnon support and anti Asian rants about Covid

The reason he hasn't done more legislatively (yet) is due to fact Rs obstruct in senate.

It's interesting to see Bill Clinton whom agreed with Biden during first two yrs of office didn't nuke the Filibuster come out in praise of Biden

My point is that Biden isn't a Progressive he is a DLC Dem just like Newsom and Bill CLINTON

I was very critical of Clinton too, but not Obama but Biden as Veep was against the Filibuster reform that's why Obama didn't get rid of it in 2009/2013

Ugh, Joe Biden as POTUS is much, much more progressive than Bill Clinton.

I said on getting rid of Fillibuster they were unanimous in keeping the Filibuster, Biden was in the Senate as Chairman of Judicial Committee and D's didn't lift the Filibuster for Hillary care and Biden was Veep to Obams that didn't get rid of the Filibuster in 2009/2013, along with Reid

Also, Biden bypassed the Judiciary committee as Chairman to give Clarence Thomas a floor vote and D's didn't bother Filibustering that either

[Tartarus Sauce]

Democrats are relieved that Trump is out of office and are thankful that Biden defeated him. Don't think the devotion really goes much deeper than that. He certainly hasn't cultivated the kind of celebrity status, media darling aura Obama did among the base. Which is arguably a good thing, Democrats had sky-high expectations with Obama which were dragged down by reality, cratering their turnout two midterms in a row. Democrats aren't expecting a sea change with Biden, just stability and a much desired return to normalcy.

Honestly though if Bill was in office today he’d probably be much more progressive too. Both are the kinds of politicians who adapt to the times.

Nothing about his approval rating among Republicans was unusual. It's how strong and enthusiastic his support was that set him apart.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

Reid, Biden, Clinton all were against Filibuster reform, that's why Ds didn't Filibuster Thomas, they didn't nuke the Filibuster when Rs Filibustered Hillary care and Reid didn't lift Filibuster in 2009/2013

The Rs following each time took advantage after Rs blocked Hillarycare the gain 55 seats, after Rs were against Obamacare in 2010 they gained seats.

After D's didn't lift Legislative Filibuster in 2013 the Rs gained the Senate in 2014

My point was that that all three were not Progressuve on Filibuster, they are all DLC Dems and if the Election was held last yr with Booker, he would have won the same amount of seats as Biden


The samething can happen this yr, if there is Buyers remorse in the S, and straight partyline vote, in that case D's get 51/49 Senate and lose the H bases on FL and TX gaining H Seats

D's thought Biden WC appeal would appeal to S, it didn't due to Hunter

Just about every Democrat likes, respects, appreciates and approves of Joe Biden. Not in love, but overall the party is very pleased so far.

Trump was a little different. 60-70% of the party worshipped his golden calf ass. The other third never cared for him and thought he was too brash. Sure, we'll condem him but we still vote for him to get those tax cuts and conservative judges.

That is the big difference. A greater percentage of the Democratic Party approves of Biden than Republicans did Trump, but Trump had far more loyalty from those who did

[Pericles]

Yeah Republicans backing Trump while he constantly attacked democracy, showed himself to be an awful person and was just incompetent and unpresidential is of course more shocking than Democrats approving of Biden because he send them checks and people are getting vaccinated while he avoids unforced errors.

[emailking]

98%? The best Trump could muster was 95% What a loser.

[Sir Mohamed]

Biden should now tweet: "98% support among Democrats. Most EVER from own party. A number "T" could not reach within entire term. THANK YOU, WORKING HARD!"

Yeah, you don't see Biden rallies spontaneously bursting into chants of "We Love You!" directed at him, and if you did I guarantee you the right-wing media would make sure every American knew.

I consider the last impeachment vote to be the ultimate test of how deep and abiding Trump's loyalty was. In the end, out of 211 odd House Republicans, only 10 (4.73%) voted to impeach Trump, and out of 50 Senate Republicans, only 7 (14.00%) voted to convict him, numbers that very closely match the approval ratings Trump typically garners among Republicans as a whole.

And none of them were really prominent Republican leaders except maybe Romney. But none of the actual legislatively Republican leaders opposed him.

And by comparison, almost every Democrat in the House or Senate would have voted to impeach and remove Biden if he were to commit something similar to the Ukraine scandal or inciting a Capitol riot.

[Amenhotep Bakari-Sellers]

It's clearly a rally around the flag effect, the test is gonna come in the Midterms, will Ds get a Supermajority Senate to do what they always wanted
.but, the 1=9 T wasn't enough to stimulate the Economy as long as we are stuck with Covid, Warren says that we need a 4th stimulus, but Ds could have avoided it if Stimulus was 2K not 1400 or 2600 and lowered Unemployment checks

Nope, because the media would cover for a Democrat doing it.
