Trump 48% Biden 46%. Biden independent vote went from 61% to 39%. Major issues they cite are border migrants, Covid, Afghanistan and foreign policy.
Add in rigged Congressional districts and voter suppression and if this is not a wake up call for Dems in Congress to rally around Biden and give him wins, I don't know what is.

Why is this here?

(17,982 posts)I have never seen such hateful, non stop attacks on a President by the media.
Funny, the American public does not agree. The media, itself has been blasted for the non stop criticism. Now we are finding that many Afghans like the Taliban over the crooked government.

(14,560 posts)Republicans fuck things up (Nixon, Reagen, Bush II, 45) and the media feels like it has to level the playing field to channel trifling republican bullshit against good, decent men like Carter, Clinton, BHO and now Joe to level the playing field.
The problem is this country just goes with it.
WE care, the other 70% don't.

(58,785 posts)far, far too much weight on it. Many people respond to these polls to express increased approval or disapproval of something happening at that time, not to indicate a change in how they're going to vote in somewhat over a year.
Plus, we will pass both infrastructure bills. I have a long list of what I feel is important to keep, but just 3 core goals that all our factions are committed to -- extending the child tax credit, expansion of healthcare under the ACA, and our climate change initiatives -- will in themselves be very big achievements for our party and for our candidates to run on.
They also all have strong support among conservative voters as well as liberal, and of course "independents."
