2020 US Presidential Election

A year since the election and this thread is STILL shambling on?
We have a horrendously bad President whose approval ratings are sinking very fast and the absolute worst Vice President ever, so it should be discussed as Biden may decide to run again in 2024.

You have a horrendously bad guy running the FED. And, maybe for the sake of parity, in Europe we have a horrendously bad woman pretending to run the ECB.

And WE, the citizens are bearing the consequences.
 
Donald Trump Wallops Joe Biden, Kamala Harris in New 2024 Poll
BY MATTHEW IMPELLI ON 11/19/21

Former President Donald Trump took a large lead over President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for the 2024 presidential race, according to a new poll.

In a new poll conducted by Redfield & Wilton Strategies, 44 percent of respondents said they'd vote for Trump, if he is a candidate in the 2024 presidential election, while 39 percent said they'd vote for Biden. According to the poll, 7 percent said they'd vote for a third-party candidate and 7 percent said they didn't know who they'd vote for.

I am not sure I wanna be frenemy with a Trumpian :) :)

Biden has renewed Powell as FED chairman. It's a sad day...

Maybe this Christmas the Old Powell from the Past will visit the new Powell devoted to manipulating the economy and to insider trading and will tell him "mate, it's time to raise interest rates!" :rolleyes: :eek: :D

Damn.
 
I think his biggest pitfalls are:

- Renewing Powell as FED chairman. What a disgrace!

- Marketing and heavily publicising a "global corporate tax" that maybe, somehow, someday, may come into force. 2030? 2050? That's the typical political announcement to confuse people: they talk as if the "global corporate tax" was already approved and they are just thinking about it... maybe in 2030.
 
Boris Johnson lost his script, so could not read his speech. Spent minutes mumbling, hopelessly fumbling through papers... and then started talking absurdly about Peppa Pig.

I see the UK is in good hands! :ROFL:
 
Biden is pandering to the teachers unions. They're as bad as the churches who protect pedophile clerics. The teachers unions, and most if not all public service unions, especially for the police, should be eliminated.

Biden admin proposes removing Trump-era data collection on sexual assaults committed by teachers
Former Trump admin official described move as the 'ultimate act of bowing to the teachers unions'

The Department of Education is proposing to roll back attempts at collecting additional data on teacher-perpetrated sexual assaults, prompting concerns about transparency in reporting faculty misconduct.

Data collection, under last week's proposal, would continue to include the number of documented incidents at a given school, but would retire Trump-era reporting on "rape or attempted rape, or sexual assault" allegations that were followed by "a resignation or retirement prior to final discipline or termination."

Former Secretary Betsy DeVos implemented those provisions for the 2020-2021 school year, but they were reportedly delayed due to COVID-19.

So Goldman Sachs is saying tapering is going to accelerate and they expect 3 rate hikes for 2022.

As we all know, those guys at Goldman are famous for telling the truth, as we could see when they got Greece into the euro faking all their accounts..
 
During his campaign, Joe Biden promised to solve the COVID-19 crisis. He said in 2020 that any president who had 220,000 deaths while in office, from COVID-19, should not be there - yet he has surpassed this number. He has failed miserably, and the death toll is going up.

Blaming COVID: Biden sees common culprit for country's woes

WASHINGTON (AP) — Inflation is soaring, businesses are struggling to hire and President Joe Biden's poll numbers have been in free-fall. The White House sees a common culprit for it all: COVID-19.

Biden's team views the pandemic as the root cause of both the nation's malaise and his own political woes. Finally controlling COVID-19, the White House believes, is the skeleton key to rejuvenating the country and reviving Biden's own standing.

Central bankers are the ones to blame for the current economic situation, and the rampant inflation. Central bankers have been neglecting their work for more than a decade.
 
We have an absolutely terrible President and probably the worst VP in the history of the United States. Hope everybody who supported this ticket is satisfied with how it turned out, after we warned them.

Biden ran on bringing people together. He's failed so far
Analysis by Harry Enten, CNN
Sun December 5, 2021

President Joe Biden ran on a campaign of bringing people together.

But nearly a year into his administration, Biden has been overwhelmed by the long-term trend of polarization. He sports the lowest approval rating among the opposition party at this point in a presidency in at least 68 years, while having one of the highest approval ratings among his own party.

Biden's approval rating with Republicans in the latest Gallup poll came in at just 6%. The poll is no outlier. Polls from Fox News, Marist College and Quinnipiac University put his approval at between 3% and 9% with members of the GOP.

To put this in perspective, take a look at the average president since the end of World War II in early December of his first year as president. The 10 elected presidents (i.e. not Harry Truman in 1945, Lyndon Johnson in 1964 or Gerald Ford in 1974) had an average approval rating of 41% among the opposite party. Biden's is a full 35 points below that.

Biden's low approval among Republicans makes complete sense when looking at the trend line of recent presidents. The three lowest approval ratings with the other party before Biden have come during the four previous presidents, and the trend within that time span has been downward.

These include Bill Clinton (23%), Barack Obama (18%) and Donald Trump (7%). (The notable exception was George W. Bush, who had a rating of 77% following the September 11 attacks.)

On the other hand, Biden's approval rating among Democrats came in at 90% in the most recent Gallup poll. This is 6 points above the 84% average for presidents with their own parties at this point. It also happens to be the second highest approval rating for a president at this point among his own party ever in the polling era. Only George W. Bush, at 98%, was doing better.

The gap between Biden's approval rating among his own party and the opposition party is an astounding 84 points. This is by far the largest Gallup has ever recorded at this juncture of a presidency.

The average gap of 43 points between what percentage of each party approved of a president before Biden was about half what we see with him.

As with Biden's low approval overall, he hasn't been able to escape the new reality of American politics when it comes to the gap in how the parties view him.

The three widest gaps in approval rating by party before Biden also were three of the four presidents before him, and the trend has been toward wider gaps within that time frame.

These include Clinton (55-point gap), Obama (64-point gap) and Trump (74-point gap).

The large gap in Biden's approval between the parties can be linked almost directly to partisan views on the economy. The economy is the number one issue for voters right now, and Democrats and Republicans see it through very different lenses.

The University of Michigan index of consumer sentiment tells the story. Right now, Republicans come in at a mere 37.8 on the scale. This is the lowest registered among any party in any month during which we have a measurement since 1980. The next lowest of any party was 48.3 by Republicans during the height of the financial crisis in March 2009.

During that month in 2009, Democrats had a reading of 64.5. This made for a difference of 16.2, which is relatively small.

This month, Democrats had a score of 88.4. This made for a gap of 50.6, or about three times the gap in 2009. A wide difference like this is extremely rare and really has happened only recently. In August 2018, there was a gap of 50.8 between the Democrats and the Republicans in the index of consumer sentiment.

The fact that Democrats and Republicans view something like the economy so differently really shouldn't be surprising given everything we know.

As I noted in November, Democrats' highly negative views of the GOP in general and vice versa are at their highest level in at least 50 years. Republicans giving Biden a lot less leeway on the economy than Democrats fits with that data.

Still, the fact that Biden couldn't stop the deepening political divide on these different measures is notable. Unlike a lot of political figures recently, he ran on bringing people together. He has so far failed in that endeavor.

So what's going to be the next US inflation data? 7%???

Still Powell does not raise interest rates. He should talk to his old self, the old Powell who advocated for a fast tapering and raising rates in 2013, when US economic data was even worse than now.
 
A small piece of good news, regarding somebody we've spoken about before on this thread. Saule Omarova, a USSR educated radical socialist that Biden chose and nominated for Comptroller of the Currency, has withdrawn her name from being considered for the position. She is part of the Bernie, AOL, etc. clique.

Biden condemned what he called the "inappropriate personal attacks" on Omarova, "that were far beyond the pale."

President Biden's job approval sinking on inflation, crime and COVID: POLL
Biden's approval on many issues has hit new lows, an ABC/Ipsos poll finds.
December 12, 2021

President Joe Biden is facing significant skepticism from the American public, with his job approval rating lagging across a range of major issues, including new lows for his handling of crime, gun violence and the economic recovery, a new ABC/Ipsos poll finds.

As the White House confronts rising and widespread concern about inflation, Americans are especially negative on how the Biden administration is managing this issue.

Maybe Biden should quit handing out trillions of dollars of free money. Ya think that has anything to do with this record inflation?
Inflation is primarily the result of QE and the stymulus programs run by the FED and ECB. Those programs have been in place for years, under different names...

So central bankers screwed up and now they have to fix the economic problem they created, which is rampant inflation, permanent inflation.
 
I am starting to think that Democrats may lose the midterm elections due to Powell's failure to tackle inflation.

The FED is not doing its job and this will penalise the President and the Democrats.

The Dems are gonna get slaughtered in November and it's not just because of Biden's record inflation.
 
Biden promised during the campaign to handle the COVID-19 crisis, and was unrelentingly critical of Trump for the amount of deaths during his administration. He said that anybody with that amounts of COVID-19 deaths should not be president. Well, despite the vaccines, the Biden administration now has over 800,000 deaths which is over twice the number there were, when he was sworn-in in January 2021. Should he be impeached? I'd say yes, but that horrendous VP that he chose, who has zero qualifications and even less brains, will then take over.
