The share of voters who strongly disapprove of President Biden’s handling of his job has reached 47 percent, higher than in Times/Siena polls at any point in his presidency.
Who was polled? People that voted in the primaries. Why would democrats show up to a primary unless they wanted Biden to lose? This article is sensational bullshit.
Only 23 percent of Democratic primary voters said they were enthusiastic about Mr. Biden — half the share of Republicans who said they were about Mr. Trump. Significantly more Democrats said they were either dissatisfied or angry at Mr. Biden being the leader of the party (32 percent) than Republicans who said the same about Mr. Trump (18 percent)
Raise your hand if you or anyone you know was polled. There’s no way Trump is gaining voters. The only way he wins is if Democrats stay home and don’t vote.
The polls that are showing up all seem to have flaws like this.
It is way too early to know anything in this election anyhow. I’ve been following it closely and it is going to be a circus. Trump is showing mounting signs of dementia in his speeches as each one worst than the last. The stress of massive court judgment deadlines approaching seem to be breaking him as his best shot at getting 4 Billion vanishes before his eyes. Meanwhile Biden looks like your average retirement home resident. Don’t get me wrong, I like what he’s done, but both of them are just too damn old for this.
I don’t understand how Trump can remain a candidate at this rate if he winds up broke (he owes NYS half a billion) and in jail (the New York election tampering case) by the summer. It’s fucking insane and I love following it with existential dread and morbid curiosity.
Well one of these candidates runs a cult and will not lose votes from divisive bullshit like this.
So feel free to split the rest of the vote and bring Trump back, I guess 🤷♂️ I’m lucky enough to be in a position to leave if it happens, not everyone is so fortunate
So, your plan is to bury your head in the sand rather than hold the people who’ve co-run the show this whole time accountable for anything, and when that doesn’t work, you’ll just leave? And you’re treating me like the asshole here?

My plan is to vote against the person trying to destroy our country, instead of actively helping him get elected by splitting the vote. You will never elect a third party in our current system, and Democrats are 10,000,000% more likely to work towards a different system (a non-dictatorial one, anyway).
You can throw your vote away or not, that’s totally your choice. If you choose to actually participate, then you can either vote for an ineffective, way-too-old, status-quo supporter or you can vote for someone who wants to remove your ability to vote and start political prisons. That’s it, those are your only two choices.
and when that doesn’t work, you’ll just leave? And you’re treating me like the asshole here?
…yes, absolutely. I’m sorry, but why would I choose to stay in a country that is all but guaranteed to slide into a military dictatorship that is actively working against my beliefs and the people that hold them? If you haven’t seen Trump’s plans, then I suggest you do some reading.
Less than half of the country wants Trump or Biden.
Wrong way to read it. Of the polled people, more want Trump than BidenPossibly unreliable poll, see here https://lemmy.world/post/12773276

Well in our electoral system, that literally couldn’t matter less, so maybe focus on that issue another time?
“Another time” never arrives.
That doesn’t stop them from repeating this line verbatim every election though.
