Do you really believe in opinion polls? For every opinion poll that says one thing, there is another poll saying the opposite.

 

First you start with the result that you want, you tailor the questions to suit the result and then you target your audience.

 

You want Trump to look good you ask one set of questions to one audience, or if you want Biden to look good, use different questions and a different audience.

Margin  of error plus or minus 3 pts still very bad.

 

If 10 polls are bad its bad

Look at opinion polls

What does an allegation about how Biden is regarded have to do with Trump being booed at his rally? It's just an irrrelevant all-purpose taunt that can be trotted out for just about any political occasion. It's clear you don't understand what a deflection is.

Well what clear to me is that at this point in Trump's presidency when both the world economy on the whole and the American economy were doing well, Trump was only 3 points above Biden in popularity. Incumbents typically get blamed when the economy is troubled. What was Trump's excuse?

[MrJ2U]

Sure make it interesting again if he's reelected!

Really? You seem remarkably unacquainted with Biden's achievements. This one bill alone outdoes any achievements of Trump.

• $110 billion for construction, repair, and research for roads and bridges
• $66 billion to upgrade and maintain the country’s passenger and freight rail systems

• $65 billion to expand broadband in rural areas and in low-income communities
• $55 billion for lead pipe replacement, chemical cleanup, and clean drinking water in tribal communities

Sure. Voters just loved Trump's attacks on Obamacare. And his lies about having a replacement ready to go. One that that distinguishes Trump supporters is how well informed they are. Like, you know, how the election was stolen. And these very same supporters who oppose big corporations and banks, supported a man who couldn't be a better friend to those institutions.. A president who appointed supreme court justices very friendly to the interests of business and very unfriendly to workers. And who cut antitrust enforcement by 2/3.   . Also thanks for the ridiculous sexist comment. More Trump supporters are men than women.

This act could be called the "blue collars" act.

 

It was time a President cared about them and about the real economy. A big change from Trump who only cared about financial markets, as examplified by his tax cuts for the rich and for businesses, which have been mainly used for buying stocks.

Looks like Biden has led the USA into a recession, don't recall Trump doing that. Bidens spending plans seem rather desperate, any fool can spend vast amount of other people's money.

It seems you have a faulty memory:

 

Trump took office at the height of the longest economic expansion in American history. The 128-month (10.7-year) economic expansion that began in June 2009 abruptly ended at a peak in February 2020, with the U.S. entering a recession.

The world economy is in trouble now because of many factors, including covid and the war in ukraine. Is Biden responsible for that, too? And it's a very strange recession, if that's what it is, with unemployment at near record low levels. And the latest bill, if it passes, will actually raise more in revenue than it spends. About 300 billion more.

[heybruce]

Trump should be booed at every public appearance. 

 

It has been made indisputably clear that when he was POTUS he did nothing to help when a mob of his supporters were attacking the Capitol.  He just watched the show on television.

 

Anyone who supports him is no patriot or democrat.  (Note that is a small "d" democrat, as in one who supports democracy.

Unemployment at near record low levels that are largely due to a low labor force participation.

Nonsense. You have anything to back that up?  I've got news for you. The reason that the labor force participation rate isn't a reliable way to gauge unemployment is that it includes every citizen aged 16 and up with the exception of members of the military, nursing home residents, people in mental hospitals, and people in prison. So a 90 year old qualifies to be a member of the labor force. As the American population ages the labor force participation will ultimately continue to decline although it is currently rising as employment recovers from the Covid recession. That's why the unemployment rate is based on those who are actively seeking work.

That's the way it's always been. And as the chart show, the labor participation rate is increasing. And the fact is that employers are having a hard time finding workers. Lots of jobs are going unfilled. So I don't know where you get the idea that there's a problem with discouraged workers?

 

Payrolls increased 372,000 in June, more than expected, as jobs market defies recession fears

Job growth accelerated at a much faster pace than expected in June, indicating that the main pillar of the U.S. economy remains strong despite pockets of weakness.

Nonfarm payrolls increased 372,000 in the month, better than the 250,000 Dow Jones estimate and continuing what has been a strong year for job growth, according to data Friday from the Bureau of Labor Statistics...

 An alternative measure of unemployment that includes discouraged workers and those holding part-time jobs for economic reasons fell sharply, dropping to 6.7% from 7.1%.

Here's some more facts, even without covid:

 

Donald Trump’s six-month approval rating lowest of any US president in 70 years

 

Historically, it has usually taken American presidents months, if not years, to reach a majority disapproval rating.
