Joe Biden continues to decline overall and is now underwater in every major issue except Covid. The first number is approval and the second is disapproval rating.
Overall: 44.3/53
Economy & Jobs: 45.8/49.2
Immigration & Border Security: 37.4/54.7
Coronavirus Pandemic: 50.9/45.2
US-China Relations: 34.3/50.7
General Foriegn Policy: 37.7/50.3
Afghanistan: 34.4/58.4
Amazing that 44.3% approve overall. Minus blind partisan support you would think maybe he would get 5%.
It is amazing. But look how many knucklheads still support Trump. And they all have the right to vote. It doesn't bode well for the republic.
Just curious. What is, to you, that Trump did that was so bad? What policies were horrible for the country?
This is not comprehensive, but is a good start:
Destabilized Democracy - Broad be specific
Scammed donors out of millions that he used for other purposes than stated - Be specific
Encouraged division and violence - be specific
Promoted an insurrection as an attempt to unconstitutionally remain in office - Lie. He told people to go peacefully. I've got the tape.
Discussed martial law in Oval Office meetings - If we kicked out every president for things that are discussed, we'd have a CIC turnover rate that would rival fast food restaurants
Lied about everything - Not even close. He pales in comparison to the likes of Bush, Clinton, Obama, Biden
Mismanaged Covid - Your opinion. I think he did just fine. Besides, be more specific. How did he mismanage Covid? Huh?
Abandoned the Kurds - I'd rather him abandon the kurds than the American people, like our current president and previous others.
Runaway deficit spending - pales in comparison to what our current idiot in the office is wanting to do. But yes, gov't needs to stop spending money
Indecisive & whimsical - You're opinion
Ineffective foreign and domestic policy - I disagree. As a matter of fact, I think his foreign policy is light years ahead of the buffoon in office now
Foreing policy mismanagement - Be specific.
Used religion to meet his own ends, when he clearly isn't religious Be specific
Sided with Russia over our own intelligence agencies - probably part of that whole collusion hoax, right?
Tarrifs Disagree. It's time we stop letting China and other countries rip us off.
Instigated a trade war with China that China won China has won now that hidin' biden is in office
Pardoned war criminals I suggest you look at every president list of pardoned criminals
Lied about the severity of Covid for politcal gain, confirmed when he admitted to Bob Woodward he knew early on it would be devistating The democrats are the ones who have been lying for political gain
Failed to distribute the vaccine That's BS considering the time it became to distribute, he wasn't in office.... but I see no credit for him getting a vax manufactured in record time?
Vetoed military defense spending So you want a president to sign a bill he doesn't like because it's military spending? You're an idiot. Besides, he joins the likes of Obama, George. W, Clinton and yes even Reagan. You need to get over yourself
Trivialized military service How? Be specific
Told Pueto Ricans their hurricane wasn't a disaster like Katrina Then sent billions there
Drew a non-existent hurricane path on a map with a sharpie You're just being an TDSer at this point
Wanted a July 4th military parade for his PR purposes So?
Draft dodger Like Clinton? Trump got deferments, like Clinton. Clinton got a deferment for promising to joint the ROTC. When Slick Willie got a lottery number high enough that he wouldn't be picked, he reneged on joining the ROTC. You should have something better than deferment.
Eased restrictions on loan sharks Not familiar with this. But please be more specific.
Alienated foreign allies Your opinion. He got foreign governments to start paying their fair share. If that's alienating, then so be it.
Used arm forces for a $200 million election stunt sending troops to the border that could not be used for anything by law Speaking of border, how's that going under biden now? Are the illegals even being vaxxed?
Let North Korea manipulate him, while they finished out their nuclear weapons program, that he said he wouldn't allow North Korea has been manipulating everyone. Trump's not a special case. I'll applaud him for trying to open a dialogue and gettin N. Korea to change their way.... but where was that WWIII that libs promised would happen if he got elected?
Was too stupid for the office I believe your too stupid for this message board, so there's that.
Once again, as the biggest TDSer on this website, be more specific about his POLICIES that has hurt this country and then why/how has it hurt America? Huh?
Like many liberals, you're statements, are vague, over generalized and of personal opinion not based on any specific facts.
Do you disagree with the first step act? Disagree with his increase in military spending from the day he took office? disagree with moving the embassy to Jerusalem? Disagree with getting more funding for HBCs? disagree with his attempt at price transparency? Disagree with the mid-east deals concerning Israel?
I see you don't believe we shouldn't force China to play fair with regard to trade.... I believe you're wrong, but to each his own.
Just admit you don't like him because he tweeted mean things from time to time?
Don't put words in my mouth. He did some things that I approve of. I did give you policies, you just ignore them. As far as China goes, he didn't accomplish anything with them, it was an ineffective policy. I'm all for holing China accountable. We need to retaliate in kind for what they are doing at an escalated level IMO.

Destabilized Democracy -
Broad be specificScammed donors out of millions that he used for other purposes than stated -
Be specific His post election fund raising for legal fees to fight in court. He diverted it and used it for other purposes. Encouraged division and violence -
be specific His RhetoricPromoted an insurrection as an attempt to unconstitutionally remain in office -
Lie. He told people to go peacefully. I've got the tape. For plausible deniability. He also pumped them up on social media, called them to DC for what was going to happen, and told them to go to the Capitol and fight. Clearly in the hopes of disrupting the process. He pressured and turned on Pence and pumped the crowd up against him. He ran a stable full of loyal minions ahead of his remarks to work the crowd up.Then he sent them on their way.Discussed martial law in Oval Office meetings -
If we kicked out every president for things that are discussed, we'd have a CIC turnover rate that would rival fast food restaurants. Not exploring martial law for treason. Lied about everything -
Not even close. He pales in comparison to the likes of Bush, Clinton, Obama, Biden. He lied just about everything in every press conference and tweet he made. It's because he is a malignant narcissist. He's wired that way, which make him dangerous i.e. the insurrection. Mismanaged Covid -
Your opinion. I think he did just fine. Besides, be more specific. How did he mismanage Covid? Huh?He politicized it, and put out false information, and he failed to develop a national policy to address it, causing unnecessary deaths.Abandoned the Kurds -
I'd rather him abandon the kurds than the American people, like our current president and previous others. I'd rather not abandon any allies or Americans anywhere. We'll have a hard time making and keeping allies when we need them in the future.Runaway deficit spending -
pales in comparison to what our current idiot in the office is wanting to do. But yes, gov't needs to stop spending money. Sure, but before the idiot there now got there, the previous idiot ran up record deficits that pale in comparison to Obama who racked up record deficits. Trump promised to end deficit spending.Indecisive & whimsical -
You're opinion H vacillated on everything from foreign policy decisions to Covid that he gave his staff whiplash. He was constantly announcing something stupid and then walking it back the next day.Ineffective foreign and domestic policy -
I disagree. As a matter of fact, I think his foreign policy is light years ahead of the buffoon in office now. What we have now is a disaster that followed a previous disaster. Foreign policy mismanagement -
Be specific. How he engaged other countries, Russia, China, and our European allies, and NATO was joke. He didn't accomplish anything other than to piss them off. He had no idea of Americas role on the world strategic stage. He let China continue unchecked in its expansion around the world. He allowed a dictator in Venezuela continue in power, something he said he wouldn't do. Used religion to meet his own ends, when he clearly isn't religious
Be specific. He pandered to evangelicals, fundamentalists, and far right fanatics for their support, when he clearly isn't religious. Sided with Russia over our own intelligence agencies -
probably part of that whole collusion hoax, right? No just what he did. Tariffs
Disagree. It's time we stop letting China and other countries rip us off. Tariffs didn't stop China or any other country. China won that fight. Instigated a trade war with China that China won
China has won now that hidin' biden is in office. Yep, Biden is no better than Trump.Pardoned war criminals
I suggest you look at every president list of pardoned criminals.Yes, and Trump excelled at it.Lied about the severity of Covid for political gain, confirmed when he admitted to Bob Woodward he knew early on it would be devastating
The democrats are the ones who have been lying for political gainHe consistently sent mixed messages, understated the risks and nature of Covid for political gain when he clearly knew otherwise.Failed to distribute the vaccine
That's BS considering the time it became to distribute, he wasn't in office.... but I see no credit for him getting a vax manufactured in record time? That's how stupid and petulant he is. He clears the path to expedite a vaccine, then when he lost the election, and then after the election did nothing to set up a distribution system. Vetoed military defense spending
So you want a president to sign a bill he doesn't like because it's military spending? You're an idiot. Besides, he joins the likes of Obama, George. W, Clinton and yes even Reagan. You need to get over yourself You need to check your facts, Trumps military spending was substantially less than Obama's, and his first three years was close to Obama's last three years. Further, looking at military spending over the past three decades, comparing it with the size of the US economy, Trump's current spending was nowhere near record levels, and it was less than the Obama presidency.Trivialized military service
How? Be specificAt the D Day 75th anniversary he belittled and criticized those who gave their lives in military service. ITold Pueto Ricans their hurricane wasn't a disaster like Katrina
Then sent billions thereHe used his trip to grand stand and held purposely held up relief and aid. He didn't even understand that Puerto Rican's were US citizens. Drew a non-existent hurricane path on a map with a sharpie
You're just being an TDSer at this pointWanted a July 4th military parade for his PR purposes
So? He gave the impression that people in Alabama were at risk of the hurricane when they clearly were not, all because he stupidly said the wrong thing and narcissistically had to try to prove he was right.Draft dodger
Like Clinton? Trump got deferments, like Clinton. Clinton got a deferment for promising to joint the ROTC. When Slick Willie got a lottery number high enough that he wouldn't be picked, he reneged on joining the ROTC. You should have something better than deferment.Yeah, Trump is in good company with the likes of Clinton. It's disgusting that you would excuse Trump's draft dodging by supporting Trump with Clinton's disgusting behavior. They are both disgusting, and neither were qualified to wear the title of Commander in Chief. Were you a draft dodger?Eased restrictions on loan sharks
Not familiar with this. But please be more specific. Sent Mick Mulvaney, acting director Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to side with payday lenders to block rules curbing predatory lending practices.Alienated foreign allies
Your opinion. He got foreign governments to start paying their fair share. If that's alienating, then so be it.Not what I'm talking about. Good try at deflecting. Used arm forces for a $200 million election stunt sending troops to the border that could not be used for anything by law
Speaking of border, how's that going under biden now? Are the illegals even being vaxxed?We're talking about Trump. I'm not defending what Biden does, and you shouldn't try to dodge the issue by defending Trump with something Biden is screwing up. Trump clearly mobilized the military to the border wasting millions for grandstanding purposes. Let North Korea manipulate him, while they finished out their nuclear weapons program, that he said he wouldn't allow
North Korea has been manipulating everyone. Trump's not a special case. I'll applaud him for trying to open a dialogue and gettin N. Korea to change their way.... but where was that WWIII that libs promised would happen if he got elected? What the libs said is irrelevant to Trump unequivocally stating he wouldn't allow NK to implement nukes. He boasted he would stop it, and he failed. Was too stupid for the office
I believe your too stupid.I wasn't gullible enough to fall for Trumpism. “It is impossible to get a man to understand something if his livelihood depends on him not understanding.” ~ Upton Sinclair
