Daily Broadside | Old Man Swears at Reporter, Eats Ice Cream While Russia Starts WWIII

Daily Verse | Exodus 20:20
Moses said to the people, “Do not be afraid. God has come to test you, so that the fear of God will be with you and keep you from sinning.”

Wednesday’s Reading: Exodus 22-24

Happy Wednesday and we’re midweek as the squatters in the White House continue to wreck the country that was the United States of America before the election of 2020. The economy is in shambles, the stock market is heaving, inflation is up, the J6 protesters continue to rot in confinement, Russia is threatening world war, our borders are dissolved, murders are up across the nation, and we’ve got a demented old man in office swearing at reporters.

Other than that, how was the play, Mrs. Lincoln?

The good news is that Brandon continues to crash in his approval ratings.

President Biden’s approval rating has tanked to a new low of just 39 percent as his administration contends with a number of domestic and global concerns, a new poll shows.

The abysmal rating was derived from the latest Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll that was shared exclusively with The Hill.

“This is a new low for President Biden as he struggles to solve a myriad of issues,” pollster Mark Penn said, according to the report.

“He struggles to solve.” Got news for you: Brandon isn’t struggling to solve anything.

The big unanswered question of the Biden presidency: when—and where—will the Ice-Cream-Lover-in-Chief get his first local scoop? Turns out the answer is Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams on Barracks Row. The President made a quick pitstop at the ice cream shop this afternoon after a visit to neighboring boutique Honey Made, where he admired necklaces on the wall for “my wife,” examined a coaster with a German shepherd on it, and picked up a Kamala Harris mug, according to a pool report.

At least we got that “big unanswered question” out of the way. Now on to less urgent matters, like whether Russia will start World War III or if his fiscal policies will wipe out your life savings.

More on the poll from The Hill:

Fifty-six percent of suburban voters in the poll said they believe former President Trump was a better president than President Biden, while 44 percent said they believed Biden was the better president. Among surveyed voters who were labeled “Independent or other,” 55 percent said they believed Trump was the better president and 45 percent said they believed Biden was the better president.

Meanwhile, 57 percent of suburban respondents said they are more likely to vote for a Republican candidate in the midterms, while 43 percent said they would be more likely to vote for a Democratic candidate. The poll found the same results among voters labeled “Independent or other.”

Are these the same independents who swung to Biden in 2020’s election? Do they have regrets? Did their norms not get restored? Do they miss the mean tweets? Did they “underestimate Joe’s ability to f*** things up“?

As for the economy, a new poll released on Monday from Rasmussen shows that

Roughly 60 percent of voters think the economy is “not very fair” (29 percent) or “not at all fair” (31 percent), according to a Rasmussen poll released on Monday.

The survey found that only seven percent of voters believe the economy is “very fair,” while 26 percent think the economy is “somewhat fair.” The findings are a “sharp shift” from 2019, when 56 percent of voters said they believed the economy was “somewhat fair” and 15 percent thought it was “not at all fair.”

You betcha.

I’d love to claim that a red tsunami is on the horizon, but I said that about the presidential election in 2020. It was true then and it’s true now, of course, but with the Resident saying things like, “I’m not going to say [the 2022 midterms are] going to be legit. The increase and the prospect of being illegitimate is in direct proportion to us not being able to get these reforms passed,” we can no longer have any confidence in our elections. And the voting “reforms” did not pass so, according to Brandon, the elections are as good as stolen.

In other words, all looks good from the outside. If the elections are stolen, like Brandon suggests, it won’t be us who did the stealing.
