President Biden’s policy agenda is incredibly popular, much more popular than his opponent’s. But Biden the man? Not so much.
The question now is whom to blame for the approval gap between the president and his agenda: voters, the media or Biden himself.
Democrats have long argued that their policies are more popular than those of Republicans. In a recent blind test conducted by YouGov, that was unmistakably true. The polling organization asked Americans what they thought about major policies proposed by Biden and Donald Trump without specifying who proposed them. The idea was to see how the public perceived ideas when stripped of tribal associations.
Biden’s agenda was the winner, hands down.
Of the 28 Biden proposals YouGov asked about, 27 were supported by more people than opposed them. Impressively, 24 received support from more than 50 percent of respondents.
Is this a joke? Doesn’t he need to be popular to win “most important election of our life time”?
I knew there was going to be damage control from DNC. I just didn’t guess their damage control would be insane.
I don’t think this is damage control. I mean maybe the timing of the article is but we’ve known for a long time that progressive policies are favored by a majority of Americans but progressive politicians aren’t.
Not that Biden is progressive. But next to conservative regression anything will look progressive.
