The difference however is policies and Trump results whether you like them or not. We were indeed safer and stronger but hate. Lies, propaganda And Trump's personality prevailedNo, we aren't--a state of affairs that both Republicans and Democrats are responsible for ... the Democrats for selecting a man like Biden as their standard bearer, and the Republicans for selecting a man like Trump as theirs.
“Personality”—you keep using that word. I think in this case it does not mean what you think it means.The difference however is policies and Trump results whether you like them or not. We were indeed safer and stronger but hate. Lies, propaganda And Trump's personality prevailed
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 56% of Likely U.S. Voters think, compared to most recent presidents, Biden is a weaker commander in chief for the military. Only 24% now believe Biden is a stronger commander in chief than most recent presidents. Seventeen percent (17%) say Biden is about the same as most recent presidents as a military leader. These findings are practically unchanged since November. Fifteen percent (15%) of voters surveyed are current or former members of the U.S. military, and 64% of those with military experience say Biden is a weaker commander in chief. In June 2018, 40% of voters, and a majority of those with military experience, said President Donald Trump was a stronger commander-in-chief for the military than most recent presidents.
Note this means that Biden actually succeeded in beating Trump's lowest monthly approval rating--quite a feat, considering Trump.The president earned a monthly job approval of 42% in April, up one point from March. Fifty-six percent (56%) disapproved of his job performance in April, down one point from March. Donald Trump’s monthly approval ran from a high of 51% in February 2017, his first full month in the White House, to a low of 42% in August 2017. In December 2020, his final full month in office, Trump earned a monthly job approval of 47%. Fifty-one percent (51%) disapproved.
With all respect, 2/3 of the American populace could not pass a simple citizenship test. (It's sadly true) That's beyond ignorant.
No wonder we're stuck with dumb-ass politicians. Any Polls that they take has no meaning, simply because most of them don't-know-shit.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 53% of Likely U.S. voters believe most world leaders see President Biden as weaker than former President Donald Trump. Thirty-three percent (33%) feel Biden is stronger than Trump in the eyes of most world leaders. There is a wide partisan divide on this question. Fifty-six percent (56%) of Democrats think most world leaders see President Biden as stronger than Trump, but 78% of Republicans think those leaders see him as weaker. Among voters not affiliated with either major political party, 55% believe world leaders see Biden as weaker and 28% think those leaders see him as stronger than Trump. These findings are not unprecedented. In November 2017, 50% of voters believed world leaders viewed Trump as weaker than former President Barack Obama, and the partisan divisions were reversed.
Biden hasn't exactly been impressing voters with his presence on the world stage.
Meanwhile, in FiveThirtyEight's rankings, Rasmussen has gone from a C+ to a B.Neither has Rasmussen...
I go by RCP which averages out all the latest polls. On Biden’s overall job approval, There’s also a graph if you scroll down to where you can see Biden’s day to day approval/disapproval for the last year.Yeah, but the first category, for example, "Biden last week", the numbers add up to 168%. Were people allowed to tick multiple boxes?
Meanwhile, in FiveThirtyEight's rankings, Rasmussen has gone from a C+ to a B.
What I hear too much of the last ten years is a lot of very well off straight white Christian conservatives having tantrums and acting like victims.
And it's getting really really old...comfirms the old adage
"When you're accustomed to privilege, equality feels like oppression."
Now the pallette of colors, nationalities and demographics that make up our American society is changing once again, and the ones who are doing most of the damage to our democracy
grew up enjoying its benefits. Talk about biting the hand that fed them, but their most obvious evil is that they portray themselves as somehow marginalized, which is an incredible sleight of
hand from a group of people who are among the top five and top one percent and all the way to the zenith above.
It's amazing how billionaires and straight white conservative politicians can concoct a narrative that paints themselves as victims in America.
People irresistibly attracted to grifters as if they were God-like are a creepily huge wedge of our total population.
A vast "resource" of marks, cucks, and cultists with "kick me" birthmarks on their back sides, ripe for the harvest by
the Trumps, Musks, and Murdochs. The marks are victims, but not owing to their own rationale.

My point is that yes, you can point to election polls where Rasmussen was spectacularly wrong. Likewise, I can point to election polls where Rasmussen was spectacularly right. But what neither of us can do is look at all the polls. FiveThirtyEight can and does. While I have a problem with one aspect of how they produce their ranking (the larger a pollster's record the less I think the pollster's methodology should count), so far as I know they are the only ones that look at all the polls, and as long as I've been aware of them, they've given Rasmussen a better than passing grade that has only gotten better over that time.That is good, I should have checked the rating there before I posted.
What is your point?
The president earned a monthly job approval of 42% in May, unchanged from April. Fifty-six percent (56%) disapproved of his job performance in May, also unchanged from April. Donald Trump’s monthly approval ran from a high of 51% in February 2017, his first full month in the White House, to a low of 42% in August 2017. In December 2020, his final full month in office, Trump earned a monthly job approval of 47%. Fifty-one percent (51%) disapproved.
Yet they got the 2016 election correct in the end. So, are the pollsters actually the outlier, and Rasmussen is accurate? It's one of chicken and the egg scenarios.You do realize rasmussen is dismissed as an "outlier" more often than not because they skew so heavily republican.
Sounds like the talking heads just keep covering for democrats.So here's the second of my threads on Rasmussen polls (the first is What Americans Think about Politics, with the background of where these are coming from).
Rasmussen is, so far as I know, the only polling company that still polls on the president's job approval every weekday (except holidays). Rasmussen actually uses a three-day rolling average, with 500 Likely Voters polled daily--so each day's number is from 1,500 Likely Voters over the last three days. Still, every day is a bit too fluid for me, I prefer longer periods. So here's Biden's average numbers over the past week, month, and since he was elected. Then I toss in Trump's and Obama's numbers from the same point in their own presidencies, for comparison.
