    Looking solely at approval rating (% of people saying ‘I approve!’).

    If you look at DISAPPROVAL rating (% of people saying ‘I disapprove’) he comes across MARGINALLY better.

    https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/statistics/data/final-presidential-job-approval-ratings

    Notables:

    Truman - 56%
    Nixon - 66%
    Carter - 55%
    W. Bush - 61%
    Trump - 62%

    Biden? 62%

      I seriously don’t know why you allow this blatantly bullshit type of hit piece here.

        The mods aren’t your pet censors.

        You just want an enforced echo chamber where things you don’t want anyone to read are verboten.

          You know me so well?

          Since we’re making observations….

          It’s funny how you seem to always show up in defense of OP and their propaganda, but never for those that takes heat from the myriad socialist kids that think they run this place.

          It certainly makes one wonder.

              You should defend punching in ANY direction where there’s bad actors trying to dilute the waters with propaganda.

              The fact that people like you refuse to punch left illustrates the facts that it’s desperately needed if we ever want to have a balanced and honest view of how things really are.

              Learn nuance. Then practice it.

                “Propaganda” is what you call stuff people to your left say.

                All you do is punch left while screaming that you’re punching right.

                “Nuance” is when everything you want the mods to censor for you is “propaganda”.

                  It’s not just something that people only to my left say.

                  Propaganda is something to call stuff that is either a bad-faith half-truth or fully untrue that is created for no other purpose than to route public opinion towards whatever agenda the creator of it intends.

                  And how many times am I going to have to argue with your little sock puppets over this?

    While I’m willing to concede that Biden is unpopular now due to recent events, the claim thst he’s the least popular president in 75 years is laughably false.

    Newsweek seems to conveniently forget about Trump, who’s currently has 90+ pending criminal charges.

    To be fair, the only people that respond to poll calls are the retirees with land lines that mainstream Faux News all day, everyday. I can say I have recieved a few calls that my caller ID says are political calls and I don’t answer

      to be fair

      Only a small portion of polling results now come from land lines. All the methodology used in the polls is included with poll results.
