Okay, Biden isn’t popular. But his policies sure are.
President Biden’s policy agenda is incredibly popular, much more popular than his opponent’s. But Biden the man? Not so much.
The question now is whom to blame for the approval gap between the president and his agenda: voters, the media or Biden himself.
Democrats have long argued that their policies are more popular than those of Republicans. In a recent blind test conducted by YouGov, that was unmistakably true. The polling organization asked Americans what they thought about major policies proposed by Biden and Donald Trump without specifying who proposed them. The idea was to see how the public perceived ideas when stripped of tribal associations.
Biden’s agenda was the winner, hands down.
Of the 28 Biden proposals YouGov asked about, 27 were supported by more people than opposed them. Impressively, 24 received support from more than 50 percent of respondents.
Because he's an arrogant, venal sociopath who's been running for this office since he had to drop out in 1988?
Except when there was an incumbent or he sat out so Clinton could lose.
He didn't run because one of his sons died in 2015 so he wasn't up to the campaign rigors.
Not being up to it isn't stopping him now.
Yeah... we're so fucked.
