Biden the least popular President of all time?

 Has now fallen below 40% in the RCP average

The biggest problem for Biden is that this is all performance driven. Unlike Presidents like Nixon, Clinton, or Trump there are no scandals plaguing him. He does not have a history of being a controversial figure, unless you consider that he has often been thought of as a bit daft. He is just a bad President. Plain and simple. 

The bigger problem is that there is little evidence that either Biden or his handlers understand exactly how to dig themselves out of the hole. They see Biden as a victim and his approvals as little more than a reaction to circumstances out of his control. Because of this they appear to have no real plan. First step to any road to recovery is to admit your problem. The Biden Administration refuses to admit any problems. They just point fingers and suggest that they are helpless to do anything about things.

But the major problem here is that every effort they put into things that are not what the public is concerned about are seen as wasted effort or a lack of empathy. Why is Biden worried about solar panels when gas prices are over $5.00 a gallon? Why is he championing woke gender issues in school when the country is likely headed for a recession. It all looks out of touch and quite frankly... it is out of touch.

President Joe Biden’s approval rating with Hispanic Americans has plummeted to just 24 percent, a new Quinnipiac Poll finds.

The poll reveals that Biden’s overall approval rating with Americans remains in the negatives with about 35 percent approving of the job he is doing as president and 56 percent disapproving.

With Hispanic Americans, the poll shows that only 24 percent approve of Biden as president while nearly 6-in-10 disapprove. About 18 percent of Hispanic Americans said they were unsure of their opinions of Biden.

The poll indicates that Biden’s approval rating, broken down by racial groups, is the lowest among Hispanic Americans. White Americans only slightly disapprove more than Hispanic Americans of the job Biden is doing as president.

The Black Hills Flood of 1972, also known as the Rapid City Flood, was the most detrimental flood in South Dakota history, and one of the deadliest floods in U.S. history. The flood took place on June 9–10, 1972[1] in the Black Hills of Western South Dakota. 15 inches (380 mm) of rain in a small area over the Black Hills caused Rapid Creek and other waterways to overflow. Severe flooding of residential and commercial properties in Rapid City occurred when Canyon Lake Dam became clogged with debris and failed in the late evening hours of June 9 resulting in 238 deaths and 3,057 injuries.[2] Over 1,335 homes and 5,000 automobiles were destroyed. The value of property damage was estimated to be over US$160 million in 1972 dollars ($1.04 billion in 2021 dollars[3]). Flooding also occurred in Battle, Spring, Bear Butte, and Boxelder creeks.[4]

Biden inherited a nation in tumult, plagued by disease and division and still reeling from the bloody insurrection at the US Capitol. In his inaugural address, he said the country faced a “historic moment of crisis and challenge” and identified four national trials that he vowed to confront: the pandemic, the ensuing economic downturn, racial injustice and climate change.

Though his administration has made varying degrees of progress on each, those issues remain unresolved while the list of unforeseen challenges demanding the president’s attention grows ever longer.

Inflation has surged to its highest level in nearly four decades, leaving American families struggling to afford the basic necessities like groceries, gas and rent. Russia’s invasion of Ukraine threatens the liberal world order, while pushing the cost of food and fuel even higher.

A shortage of baby formula, caused by the closure of a major manufacturing plant due to contamination, has become so dire that Biden has invoked wartime powers to speed up production and restock shelves. And any moment now, the supreme court is expected to overturn the constitutional right to an abortion, leaving tens of millions of American women without access to the procedure.

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...



Biden has received widespread praise for rallying Nato allies in response to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. It was perhaps the most consequential act of his presidency, said Whipple, the author.

“Almost unquestionably, Joe Biden’s presidency is going to be defined by Ukraine and by how well he defends democracy against autocracy in its moment of danger with an invasion in the heart of Europe,” he said.

But in the short term and at home – which is where most voters’ concerns lie – Biden’s handling of Ukraine has done little to improve his approval ratings or increase the likelihood of Democrats keeping control of Congress. And last week Biden warned that Russia’s blockade of Ukrainian ports could raise the cost of staples like bread even more.

“I understand that families who are struggling probably don’t care why the prices are up – they just want them to go down,” Biden conceded in a speech on Friday.

He couldn’t promise that inflation would recede, only that he would try his best to make it happen.

“As your president,” he said, “I remain committed to doing everything in my power to blunt the impact on American families.”

My father Ivan and my brother Jon were building a great home right across the lake from the Canyon Lake Dam. We finished it a few months later.

A home we had just finished, was swept away in Dark Canyon. The only thing left was the concrete foundation. The owners were trying to get away. They survived by climbing up a tree and watched the flood and debrie and bodies flowing past them.

The House Jan. 6 committee has extensively investigated the "ripple effect" of President Trump's tweets in egging on Capitol rioters.

Why it matters: The committee is keenly interested in how Trump's tweets shaped extremist groups' actions before and on Jan. 6. Some committee members argue that Trump's tweets provide indirect connective tissue establishing his culpability.

What's happening: The committee, which holds a prime-time hearing Thursday at 8 p.m. ET, has painstakingly traced how these groups — including the Proud Boys and Oath Keepers — interacted with Trump's tweets on Reddit and other message boards.

Trump sent a variety of tweets after the election that riled up supporters. "BE STRONG!" he implored on Jan. 6, 2021.

Here are two other committee areas of interest:

1. Efforts by Trump and aides to destroy documents.

Trump often tore up White House documents that should have been preserved as presidential records.Some of the presidential records sent to the Jan. 6 committee by the National Archives had been ripped up, then taped back together, the Washington Post reported.A committee witness testified that then-White House chief of staff Mark Meadows burned papers in his West Wing fireplace after meeting with a House Republican about challenging the 2020 election, the N.Y. Times and Politico reported.

2. Trump's consideration of invoking the Insurrection Act, a federal law that allows the president to deploy the military domestically.

Committee members have studied how close Trump came to invoking the act immediately after the election and leading up to Jan. 6.

What's next: The committee told reporters on a preview call on Wednesday that the prime-time hearing will show "ongoing threats to American democracy" — and will include clips from the depositions of Trump family members, White House officials and campaign aides.

Just as with 0linsky, the left bitches about what they inherited, and from who, and how it's all out of their control, it's not their fault, blah, blah, blah.

Trump got elected and actually FIXED what ailed us, gave us the greatest economy in modern history, a roaring stock market creating TRILLION$ in new wealth, 6.0% REAL wage gains, domestic manufacturing that had been off-shored, and the lowest minority unemployment OF ALL FUCKING TIME.

Oh yeah, and he gave us a Chinese Sneeze vaccine that Slow Joe an da Ho admonished and would not take initially.

FJB whines, gaslights us by having his lesbo spokes-twat tell us that the economy is “in a better place than it has been historically.”

Roger Amick uncensored said...

The committee is expected to make recommendations to Congress on how to address that threat, but the aide did not reveal whether the committee will make criminal referrals, a longtime source of contention. In December, the committee’s vice chair, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), raised eyebrows when she read the statutory language for obstruction of an official proceeding, a felony, in relation to Trump’s conduct.

A federal judge in California later found Trump “likely” committed that offense in a pair of rulings awarding the committee emails from Trump’s lawyer John Eastman, the author of six-part plan to overturn the election dubbed the “coup memo.” The same rulings found that Trump and Eastman likely conspired to defraud the government.

On Wednesday afternoon, the committee was slated to receive the second set of disclosures from Eastman as a result of that ruling. That will add to the massive record the panel gathered from 1,000 interviews and more than 125,000 documents. Some of that information, the committee indicated, will be shown to the public for the first time during the hearings.

For the first time, they have direct evidence of obstruction of justice. The panel doesn't have the authority to indict Trump.



Roger Amick uncensored said...

Rep. Liz Cheney (Wyo.), the top Republican on the panel, has raised the question of whether Trump committed a crime. But others argue that it could be viewed as a partisan overreach, given that Congress doesn’t have any prosecutorial powers. The most it could do is refer Trump to the Justice Department, recommending that he be charged with a crime, and the Justice Department has been cautious when it comes to investigating the president and his top aides.

Still, it would be a big deal for a congressional committee to formally accuse a former president of a crime. Trump would go down in the history books as a president twice impeached and formally accused by Congress of breaking the law to stay in power.

As Biden approval sinks to new low, Trump maintains position as 2024 GOP favorite

Biden has a lower approval rating than Trump did at this time in his presidency

President Joe Biden's disapproval rating hit an all-time high while his approval rating is at a record low, yet former President Donald Trump maintains his high popularity as Republicans' favorite candidate for 2024.


President Joe Biden's approval rating has been decreasing ever since he took office, but it hit a new low in Morning Consult/Politico polls after a survey released by the firm last week showed his approval at 39%. His disapproval rating hit a new high of 58%, according to the poll.

Biden has a lower approval rating than Trump did at this time in his presidency, FiveThirtyEight observed. Biden's disapproval rating is also higher than Trump's was at this same point.

The same poll also showed that if Trump decides to run for reelection in 2024, the former president is far ahead of any other possible candidates in the Republican primary.

Most GOP voters (53%) said they would vote for Trump in the 2024 primary. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis came in second at 16%, with former Vice President Mike Pence in third place at 13%. No other candidates polled above 5%.

Trump's popularity may be an important factor for the 2022 midterms as 94% of candidates he endorsed this year have won their primaries, according to Ballotpedia.

Trump Created a Monster He Can No Longer Control

Televised public hearings begin at 8 p.m. ET tonight as a House committee tries to build the case to hold Donald Trump accountable for the Jan. 6, 2021 insurrection.

But, like seemingly everything else these days, partisan overtones will color the hearings. Democrats will see them as a chance to re-frame the midterm elections. Republicans will call the hearings an unjustified witch hunt.

It will be nearly impossible for the country to agree on the truth of what happened that day. For a large swath of the country, it doesn’t matter how much video or how many text messages are shown.

Trump created a movement that ignores reality.

His hold on them was so great that when he refused to accept clear defeat in the 2020 election, a mob of his fans stormed the U.S. Capitol believing the election was stolen.

But what’s different nearly 18 months later is that those red-capped acolytes who elevated Trump to the presidency aren’t necessarily following him in lockstep anymore.

The recent Republican primaries have shown that the MAGA movement is outgrowing its maker. But the anti-immigrant, anti-establishment, anti-fact mobs are still marching.

So while holding Trump accountable for his role in the January 6 insurrection is certainly necessary for a healthy democracy, it’s no longer sufficient.

The average price of a gallon of gas nationwide exceeded $5 on Thursday, crossing the milestone after a rapid rise over the past month that has alarmed public officials and strained the budgets of everyday Americans, according to GasBuddy.

In all 50 states, the average price of a gallon of gas stood above $4.40, but costs ranged considerably across different regions, as drivers in the West and Northeast suffered the highest prices and drivers in the Southeast saw the lowest, AAA data showed.

In California, the state with the highest gas prices, drivers paid an eye-popping average of $6.40 per gallon, AAA data showed.

The bottom line for now is this: For all of the twists and turns of the redistricting cycle, the map that will be in place for 2022 is pretty similar to the one in effect in 2020: a bit better for Republicans than Democrats, but not dramatically so. Republicans continue to be strongly favored to win the House this year, and that has much more to with the political environment than the maps. The overall House map is balanced enough that the majority could flip to Republicans in 2022 but back to Democrats in a future cycle, although the playing field is almost certain to change following this election.

Capitol police refuse to release publicly-funded surveillance video to the public. The federal agency also claimed immunity as reason not to release all documents related to Jan 6.

DC Metro won’t release Fanone’s body cam footage and cleared another officer for beating Boyland.

Cops showed up in head to toe riot gear, faces concealed. They were armed for battle. Now if police were so caught off guard and not prepared, as the story goes, why were they in full body riot gear with batons and weaponry?

Not good news 😕

Many economic prognosticators and Wall Street stock pickers have made it clear where they stand on inflation and the Federal Reserve policy response: the economy and markets will get worse before they get better. Many chief financial officers at top companies agree with them, according to the results from the latest CNBC CFO Council survey.

Over 40% of chief financial officers cite inflation as the No. 1 external risk to their business, and going deeper into the results from the Q2 survey, the links between geopolitics and food and energy prices, and inflation, are clear from the C-suite ranking of the external factors that are weighing on their current outlook. Almost one-quarter (23%) of CFOs cite Federal Reserve policy as the biggest risk factor, and as the Biden administration struggles for ways to increase oil supply and Russian ships sail with seized Ukrainian wheat amid concerns about a severe global food insecurity crisis, another 14% of CFOs cited the Russia-Ukraine war as the No. 1 business risk.


CFOs are not uniformly of the view that the Fed won’t ultimately be able to control inflation. A little over half (54%) express confidence in the the central bank, but that’s still not enough to alter their view of where current economic conditions and policy decisions are heading: into a recession.

Trump and his advisers hatched plans to send in fake electors and for the military to seize voting machines. He cajoled election officials to “find 11,780 votes” and pressured the vice president to thwart the electoral count.

'Connecting the dots': Jan. 6 committee promises to show Trump's role in Capitol attack at Thursday's hearing
Yahoo News
TOM LOBIANCO
June 9, 2022, 5:00 AM

WASHINGTON — The House select committee investigating the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol plans to open its case to the public Thursday night by “connecting the dots” between then-President Donald Trump’s efforts to overthrow the 2020 election and the deadly insurrection.

To illustrate Trump’s role in the violence, the committee will employ a multimedia presentation during a primetime hearing that will be carried live on most networks Thursday. It will feature taped testimony from former Trump officials as well as from the president’s own family, according to aides for the committee.

While many details of Trump’s efforts to overturn his election loss and prevent the peaceful transfer of power have already been laid out in public, the House committee is promising to provide explosive new revelations that it obtained during its months-long investigation.

“We will be revealing new details showing that the violence of January 6th was the result of a coordinated multistep effort to overturn the results of the 2020 elections and stop the transfer of power from Donald Trump to Joe Biden. And indeed that former President Donald Trump was at the center of that effort,” a committee aide said Wednesday. “What we’re going to sketch out tomorrow night is connecting the dots.”

Documentary filmmaker Nick Quested, who was embedded with the extremist group the Proud Boys when they sacked the Capitol, and Capitol Police Officer Caroline Edwards, one of the first officers attacked by the mob, are set to be the only witnesses providing live testimony Thursday.

The highlight of the hearing is expected to be a multimedia presentation put together by the panel that will include video of interviews conducted by the committee. An aide for the committee said that footage of Trump’s children, who testified in the investigation, would feature prominently.

Trump’s son Donald Trump Jr., his daughter Ivanka Trump and his son-in-law, Jared Kushner, each sat for recorded interviews with the committee this spring. The committee aide did not say which of Trump’s children would be featured in Thursday’s presentation.

In a piece written for the latest reissue of their Watergate-era book “All the President’s Men,” journalists Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein wrote that the months-long effort by Trump and his allies to defy the election results was the definition of “sedition.”

“Thus, Trump became the first seditious president in our history,” the reporters wrote.


In the coming days and weeks, Trump and a team of allies, including longtime conservative activist and former White House political director Matt Schlapp, will mount an aggressive effort to push back on the committee’s findings.

Trump has continued to push unfounded allegations that rampant voter fraud cost him the 2020 election, and has launched an effort to help install candidates who share that view in state offices nationwide. Some of his fiercest adherents, including Pennsylvania’s Republican nominee for governor Doug Mastriano, have campaigned on what Democrats and Republican members of the committee have called the “big lie.”

House GOP leaders, including Minority Whip Steve Scalise, Republican Conference Chair Elise Stefanik, Republican Study Committee Chairman Jim Banks and others, are also planning to push back against the Jan. 6 panel’s findings.

“House Republicans will be all over the airwaves setting the record straight, telling the American people the truth, sharing the facts, and asking the real questions like why Nancy Pelosi is the only person off-limits from this investigation,” Stefanik told Fox News this week.

Frederick Grebinstock, a noted psychologist believes that there is a good chance that the speaker of the House might end up with her head exploding if things do not go well with the Jan 6th committee hearings. Grebinstock, however, scoffs at the idea that Trump is in danger of losing his mind

The House committee investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol has placed former president Donald Trump “at the center” of what the committee says is a conspiracy to subvert the will of American voters.

“We will reveal new details showing that Jan. 6 was the result of a coordinated, multi-step effort to overturn the results of the 2020 election,” an aide for the bipartisan committee told reporters.

“Donald J. Trump was at the center of that effort,” the aide added.

The committee—officially called the House Select Committee to Investigate the Jan. 6 Attack on the U.S. Capitol—will hold its first public hearings Thursday night, with live testimony from two witnesses: Caroline Edwards, a Capitol police officer, and Nick Quested, a documentary filmmaker.

Edwards is believed to be the first law enforcement injured by rioters at the Capitol that day. According to court records, she was knocked to the ground when Ryan Samsel and others pushed a police barricade back and forth in an attempt to overturn it. Edwards suffered a concussion; Samsel is currently in custody on multiple assault charges stemming from the Jan. 6 melee.


Quested is a documentary filmmaker who was following Proud Boys leader Enrique Tarrio in the days leading up to the Capitol siege. His film crew was reportedly with Tarrio when he met Stewart Rhodes, leader of the right-wing anti-government Oath Keepers group, in an underground parking garage on Jan. 5. Both Tarrio and Rhodes have been charged with seditious conspiracy.

Quested “documented the movements around the Capitol” the morning of Jan. 6 and, according to the committee, “captured on film the first moments of violence against Capitol police, and the chaos that ensued.”

The aide declined to answer a question about whether Quested is expected to testify about Rhodes or Tarrio, whose indictment became public earlier this week. The Department of Justice estimated on Wednesday that their sprawling investigation has resulted in more than 840 arrests. About 255 people charged have been accused of assaulting or impeding law enforcement that day.

In addition to the live testimony, the aide said, the committee will share “substantial new material documenting the violence of Jan. 6 itself that the committee has obtained in the course of its investigation.”

That material will reportedly include senior Trump White House officials, senior Trump administration officials, campaign officials, and Trump family members, the aide said.

Over the course of several hearings, the aide said, the committee will present “a mountain of new information” that is key to understanding what led to the Jan. 6 riot.

The aide added that the investigation has revealed that there is a “clear indication of ongoing threats to American democracy.”

The committee is expected to make recommendations to Congress on how to address that threat, but the aide did not reveal whether the committee will make criminal referrals, a longtime source of contention. In December, the committee’s vice chair, Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.), raised eyebrows when she read the statutory language for obstruction of an official proceeding, a felony, in relation to Trump’s conduct.

A federal judge in California later found Trump “likely” committed that offense in a pair of rulings awarding the committee emails from Trump’s lawyer John Eastman, the author of six-part plan to overturn the election dubbed the “coup memo.” The same rulings found that Trump and Eastman likely conspired to defraud the government.

On Wednesday afternoon, the committee was slated to receive the second set of disclosures from Eastman as a result of that ruling. That will add to the massive record the panel gathered from 1,000 interviews and more than 125,000 documents. Some of that information, the committee indicated, will be shown to the public for the first time during the hearings.

Put that in a meme and it's a Sunday funny! Even the President of Ukraine has criticized Biden and America for not doing enough... and let's be honest. The European nations have a lot more at stake and have been leading the efforts... not Biden.



Wrong, no one has sent even close to the many tens of billions of dollars of American taxpayer money Biden has sent

the "big guy" knows how to recklessly spend money

and attack the other side of the aisle

and sleep and eat ice cream

The bottom line is very difficult.

It looks like they have sufficient evidence of crimes committed by the former President. The Director of The Department of Justice has to make the most dangerous, yet vital decisions in history.

We have never indicted a former President.

I'm afraid that it might trigger violence across the country

Republican house candidate Paladino, who announced for the vacancy stemming from Republican Rep. Chris Jacobs' surprise withdrawal from the race on Friday has proven no stranger to online controversy. In December 2016, he referred to first lady Michelle Obama as a man and said he would like her to be "let loose in the outback of Zimbabwe where she lives comfortably in a cave with Maxie, the gorilla" in an Artvoice piece. At a 2015 rally, he decried the presence of "damn Asians" and other "foreigners" at the University at Buffalo and other state colleges.

On topic

Although it really is not his fault but he gets blamed for this.

Most Americans expect inflation to get worse in the next year and are adjusting their spending habits in response to rising prices, according to a poll conducted by The Washington Post and George Mason University’s Schar School of Policy and Government.

Inflation, which is near 40-year highs, has lifted the cost of just about everything, including essentials such as gas, groceries and housing. Overall prices are up 8.3 percent in the past year.

Biden policies began pushing costs higher his first week in office. He needs to man up and take responsibility.

Up from 11.4% when Biden took Office

Roger... have a thread for you on the Jan 6th commission.

You can go ahead and use that thread for all your nonsense!

Please keep it off this thread of how incompetent our actual President is!

Coldheartedtruth Teller said...

He gets zero credit for this.

Since taking office, Biden has had a number of hard-won victories, largely eclipsed by anxiety over inflation and rising costs.

Congress passed a $1.9tn Covid-19 relief package that slashed poverty and sent him a $1.2tn infrastructure package approved with bipartisan support. The administration’s mass vaccination campaign has resulted in nearly 67% of Americans being fully immunized against Covid-19, with shots for children younger than five potentially available within the coming weeks. He filled a record number of federal judicial vacancies during his first year and successfully nominated the first Black woman to supreme court justice.

And we have rebuilt the jobs back to where it was before.

A Sitting President that accutually is calling for Revolution.
"“I don’t think the country will stand for it,” Biden said of a possible Roe defeat in the Supreme Court on Kimmel. “If in fact the decision comes down the way it does, and these states impose the limitations they’re talking about, it’s going to cause a mini-revolution.""

Which every economists under the sun says contributed to inflation by a significant factor?

When the first "accomplishment" you cite is actually a harmful thing... well that tells us a lot, huh?

Biden is actually saying what democrats accuse Trump of doing despite him not saying it

and he's doing it on national TV.

Credit for what, alky?

Slashing poverty?

Didn't happen. More middle class families teeter on the edge of poverty now than ever.

Creating jobs?

Didn't happen. People are RETURNING to jobs that have been restored. Jobs needlessly suspended to get rid of Very Orange, Very Bad Man.

No NEW jobs since August 2019. FACT.

There's a ton of stuff FJB DESERVES credit for. None of it good.
