Biden Falls Flat in Latest Head to Head Matchup Poll Against Trump – Opinion

Joe Biden has been at the bottom of the polls for how long? Every since the Afghanistan debacle last year. That’s a long time and he hasn’t been able to figure out a way to get out of the basement.

Biden might have believed that dealing with Russia would help him, and people would rally around him. Except the problem is he’s handled it poorly right down the line, ever since he came into office and waived sanctions on Nord Stream 2 and cut our own energy production ability, then waved a flag to Vladimir Putin essentially signaling a “minor incursion” wasn’t going to be met with a severe backlash.

Although he was allowed to remove sanctions, and Ukraine was asking for them to be lifted to avoid the invasion of Ukraine, he chose to refuse. Then he said “no sanctions would have prevented it” even though his team had been saying for a month that the threat of sanctions was designed to prevent Putin from acting.

Americans look at his actions like that and 59 percent say Putin moved in because of Biden’s weakness. It is obvious to them. 62 percent also said the invasion wouldn’t have happened under President Donald Trump.

So no, Biden isn’t getting any lift in the polls from this situation at all and when you look at the polls toward 2024, even the Democrats are saying no, no, no to Joe Biden just before he is about to deliver his State of the Union address.

According to the Washington Examiner, just 23% of Democratic primary voters would choose Biden for a second term, according to a survey from McLaughlin & Associates, a GOP polling firm. That’s got to make the Democrats sit up and take notice and realize they have a problem. He’s practically screaming to get primaried with numbers like that.

But the problem is that the people whose names have been tossed around as the “back-ups” are just as bad and their numbers are even worse than Biden’s.

Notably, support for 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton, who has stirred new reports that she’s eager to run again, came from just 4% of Democratic primary voters. At 7%, Vice President Kamala Harris also comes in as an afterthought.

Hillary Clinton is doing everything she can to make people remember her. Of course, that’s the problem. When they see her they’re reminded of all the reasons people didn’t vote for her.

Inflation is Joe Biden’s biggest issue.

In his analysis for Newsmax, McLaughlin said, “Two-thirds, 64%, of all voters say that America is on the wrong track. Only 32% say, ‘right direction.’ As gas and food prices rise, the top issue is inflation. 57% more voters believe the economy is currently in recession. Six thirds of voters, or 63%, believe that the economy is in recession, while 31% say it’s getting better. This is the worst economic result since the coronavirus pandemic caused the economic shutdown in March and April of 2020.”

The guy is speaking for all of us on this topic:

That is Biden’s contribution.

Meanwhile, Biden is trying to sell that the economy is just great and people are just “psychologically” upset over COVID. It’s a disconnect that keeps offending the voters.

It was clear that there is a desire to see President Donald Trump run again. He indicated that during his CPAC speech, he may do so. It also found that he’d crush the competition.

This survey found that 66%-22% of Republican primary voters wanted Trump to run, while it also showed that Trump would win over Clinton, Biden, and Harris.

In fact, pollster John McLaughlin predicted an “electoral landslide,” telling Secrets, “Trump would win the needed battleground states by an even higher margin” than in 2020.

They now can see the reality of Biden – and not what they were sold by the Democrats – and can compare it more fairly to Trump. It’s not surprising that a lot would now be running back to Trump.
