I had MSNBC on and they were talking about Biden's poll numbers. Since I have been working a lot with little time to even read DU I decided to google to see if how correct they were
I feel like I've been hit over the head and I'm a bit shocked. Have we been discussing this already?
OCT. 7-11
Rasmussen Reports/Pulse Opinion Research
out of 1500 people 41% approve 57% disapprove
then I looked at the Quinnipiac poll
The poll found 38 percent of those surveyed approve of Biden's job performance, while 53 percent disapprove.
Today, Republicans (94 - 4 percent) and independents (60 - 32 percent) disapprove of the job Biden is doing, while Democrats approve 80 - 10 percent.

(17,989 posts)Yet Quinnipiac's total is 38 approve, 53 disapprove? Not buying it. I bet you've got those numbers swapped.
Rasmussen only polls Republicans with land lines.

(7,510 posts)There was some decline, probably due to the Delta Covid wave prior to Afghanistan, but his approval ratings really deteriorated in September.
Potentially he could achieve a big foreign policy win at the G-20 meeting in Rome at the end of October. However, at present, the lack of legislative progress makes it likely that he will go to Rome without much clout.
However, good talks with world leaders and favorable commentary and press could help him significantly.
