As the horse race shows, those views may not be determinative. Biden’s job approval rating is stable, albeit at a weak 36%. Though neither is broadly popular, Biden continues to have a better personal favorability rating than Trump. And Biden leads Trump by 17 points, 39%-22%, in being seen as more honest and trustworthy, essentially unchanged from the spring.
What these polls focus on determines their outcome. People think Biden is more trustworthy than Trump. Which is a good thing I guess.
Second:
Were Vice President Kamala Harris to replace Biden as the Democratic nominee, vote choices are 49-46%, Harris-Trump, among all adults (and 49-47% among registered voters). Harris’ 49% is slightly better than Biden’s 46%, although she doesn’t have a statistically significant lead over Trump.
They claim she has no statistical lead. So are we just pussy footing around here yelling at each other? She’s the VP anyway, at 81 Biden has a high fucken chance of not serving the whole term. Not that I’m advocating for that. But the last time we did this, again I’ll reiterate, we fucking lost dude. People dont like swapping candidates this late, it creates uncertainty. Which, could consume Harris’s entire nonstatistical lead. I’m down with whatever, I’ll vote D. But that doesn’t mean I won’t say shit when we are repeating history again either way we slice it.
Hey!
It’s that account that literally just said it has to be Joe because Kamala wasn’t polling ahead of trump even tho she’s not campaigning yet…
What’s the new reason for why only Joe can be the candidate now?

Newsweek sucks and doesn’t even link this new wonderous poll. There’s your reason.
So…
If I link you the poll, I’ll get to hear the new reason?

The last time we ran an incumbent like Biden, we fucking list dude.
That’s what you’re not understanding.
Everything we normally go off of, says Biden will lose.
Barack didn’t lose my guy. That was the last incumbent we ran.
not just “an incumbent”…
Biden has a 34% approval rating and the first incumbent since Jimmy Carter to not sweep his party’s primary…
That’s what you’re not getting.
You think if we replace him. It means we’ll lose because we replaced a candidate before and lost.
But if you want an incumbent similar to Biden…
Damn near everything lines up with Jimmy Carter.
What can you tell the class about Jimmy Carter’s second term in office?
