When Biden was at 42%, he was a "failed President the Country no longer supported"

[edhopper]

Trump at 42% is still the unquestioned leader that America follows.

Funny that.

1. Yabbut there's no double standard at play...

(did I really need that?)

[edhopper]

2. I think they need to talk to

more Trump voters at a local diner.


(did I really need that?)

[dchill]

5. These days...

...the news IS

(did I really need that?)

[dchill]

6. Dupe.

[Johonny]

3. The media spends more time on Biden's mythical

Mental decline than Trump's complete loss of his grip on reality. But thats because the media is so liberal.

4. Having a consolidated political and ideological base of support matters.

7. And, duping the 'trimmers'. Don't forget that. (n/t)

8. My thoughts exactly!

Donvict’s first term had him in the low 40’s and even dipping into the 30’s most or the time. That was despite riding on the coattails of the steady Obama/Biden economy and Agent Orange didn’t get as much scrutiny on his popularity as Biden has.

That is the right wing machine churning out talking points and the rest of the media, especially “podcasts”, take the bait. Click bait, that is.

Trump has always flooded the zone with soooo many corrupt and ignorant things he does that you cannot focus on a-one of them. Whereas, going after Bidens’age so relentlessly becomes a self-fufilling prophecy that results in his popularity, thus effectiveness, tanking.

It was all designed 40 years ago with the takeover of AM radio, the media, and now, the internet “new “media. The Right creates the reality they want you to feel and the stenographers, that are modern political reporters , are on the hamster wheel feedback loop.

9. Those 42% count double

[BComplex]

10. Just the 96% republican controlled media propping up the republican party. Same shit. Every day.

I guess there aren't any democrats that can afford to buy their own networks.

[UTUSN]

11. K&R

[Polybius]

12. I don't think Trump is at 42% now

Most of those polls putting him there were from April.

[edhopper]

13. It's actually

up a little. go figure

[Polybius]

15. That's what I meant

It's actually mid-40's on average right now.

[edhopper]

16. Got it

I think it more has to do with people just not looking at any News. They don't know anything about DOGE or what is happening with ICE. They just know they still have a job. When he sinks the economy, they will turn. All but 30-35% in his Cult.

[Polybius]

19. I think it has to do with the economy and stock market

Both have improved over the last month or two.

[D_Master81]

17. Cause the stock market

He went down cause the market was tanking day after day. Now that the market has rebounded he’s gained some support back.

[edhopper]

18. Rebounded?

Still down 8% since he took office.

[Polybius]

20. Yeah true

It's way up from low point on April 8th (including ,Dow up 700 Points today), so that's probably what the short-term average American memory remembers.

[Blue Owl]

14. Fuck anyone who pushes the narrative that Dump is better than Biden

He’s a goddamned criminal who would be in jail if it weren’t for his celebrity status

[Cha]

21. Yeah, The US "media" likes them

some Fascist, Sociopathic Lying, Deranged Demagogues

Except "demagogue" is too nice a word for what's in the WH.
