Joe Biden’s presidency is filled with Jimmy Carter’s hyperbole and successes. There are also six American hostages in Israel. His poll numbers are absolutely dismal. However, Carter faced a tough first year with Ted Kennedy. Democrats and their media allies have suppressed all of Biden’s major opponents.
Polls clearly show widespread dislike for this president. On Sunday, ABC’s “This Week” host Jonathan Karl delivered the bad news to Illinois Governor JB Pritzker. “This morning’s poll showed Biden’s approval rating at 33%, which is historically low.” (He ruled out 58% disapproval.) Kahl said he supports Biden’s handling of the economy. He added that only 31% of people are present. But all Kahl could ask Pritzker was, “How do we turn things around?”

If Donald Trump had a 33% approval rating in 2020, Kahl would ask Republicans how on earth they expected him to win, and suggest he would best help the party by withdrawing from the race. Does anyone think it will or won’t?
Biden’s approval rating at record low, Trump’s landslide victory. What Iowa party members will say ahead of the November 2024 election.
Pritzker tried to emphasize the positives. So Karl announced another number. “Only 28% believe President Biden has enough mental acuity to effectively serve another term. How do we address concerns?”
Later in the interview, Kahl provided numbers from another network, saying CBS found 68% disapproved of Biden’s handling of the border issue. Still, he asked, “How will the president address this issue going forward?” Unsurprisingly, this prompted Pritzker to repeat all his attacks on Texas Governor Greg Abbott, who allowed illegal immigrants to enter Illinois.

So why doesn’t Biden have any major opponents? Let’s start with this ugly fact. Pro-Biden media outlets don’t want to give airtime to opponents. Additionally, states are blocking Biden opponents from voting.
ABCNews.com reported on some of these antics in December. In late November, the Florida Democratic Party “secretly” submitted a list of candidates to the Secretary of State, which included only Biden. This measure is expected to result in the cancellation of the primary election. Democracy wins again?

The campaigns of Minnesota Democrats, including Reps. Dean Phillips, Marianne Williamson, and Cenk Uyghur, warned of the “authoritarian” and “unconstitutional” decision, but on TV. You wouldn’t know it even if you watched it. Nothing dies in the dark! We can’t prove it was Biden!
The same thing happened in North Carolina, Tennessee, and Massachusetts — with Biden the only one on the list. Perversely, a spokesperson for the North Carolina Democratic Party told candidate Biden that he does not meet the standards of a potential candidate who is “generally supported and recognized in the news media.”
Phillips complained to Politico that he has not been interviewed on MSNBC or any of the major Sunday talk shows since announcing his candidacy on October 27th. CNN had him on the show, but not on the “town hall” stage like Republicans this term, nor as members of Congress like Eric Swalwell and Seth Moulton last term.

Republicans have held five debates, even though polls show voters want Biden to be debated (to see how smart he is). , Democrats held 0 debates. As Phillips complained, “How can Democrats say we’re fighting for democracy…and then exclude me from voting in Florida and North Carolina…and support free speech?” , how can you say you don’t even support freedom and democracy when you’re defending it?” Do you agree to have one debate? ”
These would be great questions for reporters. But the people marching touting themselves as the guardians of democracy are the ones who are crushing this primary like a barrel of grapes.
