Daily Broadside | It May Take Even More Insanity for People to Quit Joe

Daily Verse | Exodus 35:21
… and everyone who was willing and whose heart moved him came and brought an offering to the Lord for the work on the Tent of Meeting …

Tuesday’s Reading: Exodus 38-40

Tuesday and the first day of the second month in the year of our Lord 2022.

A recent Marquette Law School poll claims Brandon beats both Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis by similar margins in hypothetical head-to-head match-ups for the 2024 presidential election.

The survey … found that 43 percent of adults nationwide would support Biden if the 2024 presidential election were held today, while 33 percent would vote for Trump in a one-on-one match-up.

In a hypothetical race against DeSantis, however, Biden polls slightly worse: 41 percent of adults nationwide said they would throw their support behind Biden, while 33 percent would support DeSantis.

All I can say is that their survey sample has to skew Democrat. Seriously, who did they talk to—voters in Portland?

After record inflation, open borders, more COVID deaths than under Trump, and near-anarchy in our cities, you’re telling me that 4-in-10 adults would still vote for Biden over Trump or DeSantis?

C’mon, man.

I mean, 40 percent is not 70 percent, so we have that going for us.

But then there’s this Harvard-Harris poll, which seems to herald a realignment of political loyalty.

In the latest Harvard-Harris poll, former President Donald Trump’s net favorability rating is 17 points higher than His Fraudulency Joe Biden’s.
[…]
Trump’s favorability is eight points higher than Slow Joe’s. Trump’s unfavorable rating is nine points lower. Trump is three points above the water. Biden is 14 points under the water.
[…]
Oh, and if the election were held today, Trump would beat Biden 46 to 40 percent. Oh, and when asked who’s been a better president, Trump beats Biden, 53 to 47 percent.

So which is it? The Marquette survey (Biden over Trump 43-33) or the Harvard-Harris poll (Trump over Biden 46-40)?

Here are two more data points to consider: In the RealClearPolitics poll of polls on favorability, Brandon is down -12.2 net points and Trump is only down -9.0 net points. That seems to match reality better than the law school’s survey.

The second data point is how Americans perceive Congress right now. Monmouth University Polling found that “Few Americans believe that either political party truly cares about the average family’s pocketbook.”

Just 19% of the public approves of the job Congress is currently doing. Almost 3 in 4 (74%) disapprove – including 81% of Republicans and 59% of Democrats. Just 24% of Americans feel the country is headed in the right direction. Another warning sign for the party in power is a shift in self-reported partisan affiliation. Currently, 26% of American adults identify themselves as Democrats, a number that ranged from 30% to 34% in Monmouth polling throughout last year. Republican identifiers currently stand at 31% of the population, which is up from a range of 23% to 27% in 2021. Moreover, when these numbers are combined with independents who say they lean toward either party, Republicans (51%) have a decided advantage over Democrats (41%).

A political consultant recently told me that people identify more and more as independents and that those independents are increasingly favoring Republicans. Not because Republicans are offering a more compelling story, but because Democrats have embraced the crazy and are scaring citizens.

Finally, one other poll from Politico and Morning Consult that has some interesting findings. When asked “If the 2024 presidential election were held today, would you vote for Joe Biden or the eventual Republican candidate?” 46 percent said they’d vote for the eventual Republican candidate and 37 percent said they’d vote for Brandon.

But when a specific person replaced the “Republican candidate,” the story was different. If the Republican candidate was Trump, Brandon would beat him 45%–44%; if it was Ron DeSantis, Brandon would beat him 44%–39%. Apparently, people are willing to vote for the “eventual Republican candidate” unless it’s the party favorites.

The conflicting results from different polls tell me that people are frustrated with Brandon and would like to make a change, but they don’t seem to like the choices for 2024. It also tells me that it may take a lot more pain for them to quit Brandon.

That is the most shocking thing of all.

Daily Broadside | Resident Biden’s “81 Million” (LOL) Voters Are All Turning On Him Now

Daily Verse | Romans 5:19
For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous.

Friday’s Reading: Romans 6-8

Hello and thanks for joining me this morning on the Broadside. I think that most home foyers are under-utilized.

It’s Friday and I wanted to get at least one more post out there before the weekend. Not sure if you noticed but Resident Joe Brandon’s poll numbers are cratering, even among the hard left progressive pollsters like The Washington Post which recently conducted a poll with ABC News.

In a sharply divided country, Biden began his presidency with a slight majority approving of his performance, but his standing has steadily dropped since midsummer. His overall approval rating now stands at 41 percent, with 53 percent saying they disapprove. Those who say they strongly disapprove of the way he has handled his job represent 44 percent of adults. Strong disapproval peaks at 80 percent among Republicans, though 45 percent of independents strongly disapprove of Biden’s performance, as do 48 percent of suburbanites and 44 percent of White college graduates. Biden’s overall approval rating is down from 50 percent in June and 44 percent in September, although his current standing is not statistically different from two months ago.

Biden’s popularity also has slumped among his own base. In June, 94 percent of Democrats approved of the way he was handling his job compared with 3 percent who disapproved. Today, 80 percent of Democrats are positive and 16 percent are negative. Barely 4 in 10 Democrats strongly approve of Biden today, down from about 7 in 10 who did so in June.

Over at Politico, they conducted their own poll on Biden’s mental and physical health with Morning Consult and found that,

Voters have increasing doubts about the health and mental fitness of President Joe Biden, the oldest man ever sworn into the White House, according to a new POLITICO/Morning Consult poll.

Only 40 percent of voters surveyed agreed with the statement that Biden “is in good health,” while 50 percent disagreed. That 10-percentage-point gap — outside the poll’s margin of error — represents a massive 29-point shift since October 2020, when Morning Consult last surveyed the question and found voters believed Biden was in good health by a 19-point margin.

In West Virginia, MBE Research found that the Mountain State disapproves of Resident Biden by a margin of 33 percent.

Significantly more West Virginia voters disapprove (65%) of the job Joe Biden is doing as President of the United States than those who approve (32%). Conversely, the Republican Governor of the State, Jim Justice, enjoys a 68% job approval rating compared to 28% who disapprove. Interestingly, United States Senator Joe Manchin, a Democrat, has an overall job approval rating of 60% compared to 37% who disapprove despite the President Biden’s relative unpopularity among Mountain State voters.

A survey released by the National Republican Congressional Committee on Tuesday also claimed some eye-popping numbers.

  • Among these economy-focused voters, a generic Republican leads a generic Democrat by a 2:1 margin (58%-29%).
  • When it comes to border security, Republicans hold an astonishing 83-point advantage, 87% Republican to 4% Democrat.
  • President Biden’s job approval is 42% among voters in battleground districts, while a 52% majority disapprove of the job he is doing.
  • Just 20% of voters strongly approve of Joe Biden, while more than double that amount (43%) strongly disapprove.

Finally, take a look at the poll published yesterday by the left-wing Quinnipiac.

You know why? In the same poll, 52 percent of Americans say Democrats have moved too far left while only 35 percent say the Republicans have moved too far to the right. As I’ve hammered home here and in other places, the Democrats are a criminal organization masquerading as a political party — and Americans are starting to wake up.

Other findings that are interesting:

The Politico/Morning Consult poll found that “Biden is losing support among the most loyal Democratic segment of the electorate: Black voters. Not only does polling show it, Newhouse said — so did a recent focus group of Black voters in a Southern state who were interviewed to discuss policy issues.”

In the Post/ABC polling they found that, “the poll’s most striking feature is the generic Congressional question: if the election for the U.S. House of Representatives were being held today, would you vote for (or lean toward) the Republican or the Democratic candidate? Among registered voters, the GOP has a stunning ten-point lead, 51% to 41%. That is the widest pro-GOP margin since WaPo/ABC began asking the question 40 years ago.“

Independents are regretting their vote for Joey Sugar Cone: “The Post-ABC poll also showcases Americans’ current pessimism: Despite a mix of economic signals — falling unemployment and rising prices —70 percent rate the economy negatively, including 38 percent who say it is in “poor” condition. About half of Americans overall and political independents blame Biden for fast-rising inflation, and more than 6 in 10 Americans say he has not accomplished much after 10 months in office, including 71 percent of independents…” In the Quinnipiac poll, Independent voters want the GOP to control the House (41-31 percent) and the Senate (44-34 percent).

Here is where an appropriate comment is, “this is looking great — but don’t get cocky.” There’s still a year to go until the 2022 midterm elections and a lot can happen in that time. But the sentiment of the country is trending more conservative, which bodes well if Biden and his junta continue to kill the economy, fixate on forcing vax mandates, keep the millions of illegal aliens invading our country and keep propping up an incompetent, racist grifter as “leader” of the free world.

We can all see and feel the repercussions of the foolish national vote that installed this morally vacuous moron and his equally idiotic clown car of an administration. You regret your vote? Good for you. Maybe in twelve months you can help fix what you imposed on us.

I still shake my head that there were enough people who voted for Biden to make it close enough to steal. Anyone paying attention knew what we were in for with him — yet here we are.

Pathetic.
