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.
You are ignoring the fact that political parties and donors pick our leaders, primaries are just a formality. There is documented evidence that the DNC actively worked against Bernie in both 2016 and 2020. So what is popular actually doesn’t matter.
So we can both agree that the DNC doesn’t have your interest at heart, yes?
No party or politician has your best interest at heart. Not a single one. Voting is choosing the lesser evil.
