1. I saw a report that his poll numbers are low.

They should be going up.

We are screwed.

2. They've been UP recent past weeks;

I question dramatic, fast change. (MY gas prices declining.)

5. That's one outlier poll.

Check out the composite sites, he's moved up several points in the past couple of weeks. But, looking at head to head in some of the "key" senate and house races, for a party that the media keeps insisting is headed for another disappointment like the party in power always does, the numbers in those state level races look pretty good.

And I love Trump's unfavorable ratings, some of which are as high as 65% who say very unfavorable, on top of another 10% who say somewhat unfavorable.

7. I'll have to look again because I thought the composite was

also low 40s listed there.

6. We're in the beginning of the second year of what is turning out to be an outstanding

Presidency, made all the more so by the contrast with the absolutely awful one we just had.

8. We are lucky to have a leader like President Biden
