this just in!...thought he'd get a bump from that masterful state of the union...



Pennsylvanians say they are worse off now than they were a year ago and believe the country is headed in the wrong direction, according to the results of a Franklin & Marshall College poll released Thursday. Those views helped knock President Joe Biden’s approval rating to a new low in the poll and signals problems for Democrats as the 2022 midterm election approaches.

Biden lost significant ground among self-identified Democrats, independents and moderates. The president’s approval rating dropped 20 percentage points, from 78% to 58%, among Democrats, and by 12 points among moderates (dropping from 50% to 38%), according to the poll. Support among independents declined by 13 points, from 38% to 25%

“Voters aren’t wild about the president’s performance, and that has consequences,” Yost added.

Biden’s overall approval rating (30%) reflects a significant drop from what the last Franklin & Marshall College poll results showed last summer.

It became a hot labor market during Trump's adminstration becoming so after his tax policies enticed production back to this country and freed even smaller businesses to start up or expand. Then came the pandemic and the following worldwide market collapse.

The pandemic winding down and restrictions being eased or eliminated allowing the market to open up again should normally result in a huge demand for labor to return to production and services. After the initial regrowth to some previous normal, the measure of success will be told if new tax policies maintain growth, or suppress or reverse it.

If production came back to this country under Trump you would see it reflected in manufacturing payrolls
but you don't https://tradingeconomics.com/united-...uring-payrolls

Maybe you would see a jump in total employment https://tradingeconomics.com/united-...ployed-persons
Oops, no jump there either

Oddly enough, democratic presidents have better results with jobs and the economy than republicans.
The Democratic presidents were in office for a total of 429 months, with 164,000 jobs per month added on average, while the Republicans were in office for 475 months, with a 61,000 jobs added per month average. This monthly average rate was 2.4 times faster under Democratic presidents.

yes they do say how and why, you just refuse to listen because a democrat is currently potus

crime, inflation, open borders, mental health issues, erosion of family values, culture that tells people to value how much crap they buy from china, too much time online, isolation from covid, drugs, insane cost of living in many places.

just because you choose to stick your fingers in your ears when they are explaining, doesn’t mean they aren’t explaining.

didn't say they started under Biden. But they have gotten WORSE under Biden, and some of that is absolutely his fault.

"You live in a fantasy"

We can't all be as grounded in the real world, and hard cold facts, as you are.

It's not fantasy to say that Bidens polling is in the toilet. That's reality. Which one of us accepts that, and which one of us cannot accept it?

A whole lot can happen in 8 months. But he's absolutely in the toilet.
