      “Biden is old.”

      “Hey, let’s go with a guy that’s equally old, but also a lifelong asshole, felon, rapist, and pedophile with 2 impeachments and a failed presidency already under his belt.”

      “Sounds great to me.”

      I’m betting it’s not just pedophilia.

      I’m waiting for the documents that show he’s sent hits on victims and threatened their family.

      And still no section 25.

      Still no impeachment.

      And still the MAGA mind churns.

    51% says Trump is doing a worse job than Biden? WTF is wrong with the other 49%!?

    Biden wasn’t great, but surely anything that’s not bringing the US to the brink of dictatorship and civil war is better than anything that is?

          I’ve got plenty of criticism of Obama too, but he’s easily the best US president of the 21st century, and it’s not even close. And although nowhere near as good, Biden is still easily #2, because at least he didn’t start two trillion dollar wars for nothing. And although he’s pretty bad, Bush is still easily #3, because for all his many, many faults, at least he didn’t usher in a full-blown fascist dictatorship driven by narcissism and stupidity.

          There’s no easier century to rank presidents.

          Yeah, at least he reacted to a financial crisis by giving money to people instead of corporations. Not enough money, but it was still going to mostly the right places. When the banks gambled with our money and caused a financial crisis Obama could’ve done the same thing and allocated housing money to people, which would “trickle up” to the banks. Instead he bailed them out with no strings attached so they could continue fucking everyone over.

      A lot of the time, poll results are based on how the poll is asked. If the questionaire was like: 1 trump worse than biden

      2 external factor affected the situation

      3 i like cheese

      You can see how this is going to affect the final result. There’s a whole science behind how to get the desired result from a poll without just faking the attendees

      Yeah but somewhat Biden was running child/organs/other trafficking and/or was a commie who wanted to destroy the US, and/or a satanist and a nazi.

      And probably more things but I’m a bit lost in all the batshit crazy conspi cloud. Anyway: Newsmax, and probably Fox still, won’t say Biden was better. And the other media are lying.

    Boomers have overstayed their welcome. The spoiled generation took the greatest wealth ever seen, became spoiled by it, sqandered it, and left X, Millennials, Zoomers, and Alpha holding the bag (climate change, broken empire, insurmountable debt, political instability, unstable social safety net, etc.). They will not be missed.

      Oh that’s nice: for once a young person is pissing on the boomers without lumping us gen-Xers with them.

      Cuz more and more now, I’m being told that I’m a scumbag, the scourge of society and that we all had it easy-peasy in the 80s. Because of course we did: obviously we’re the cause of everything that’s wrong in the world today, and our evil boomer parents even more so!

      Oh well, inter-generational hate will always exist. You will know it too when you get older my young friend…

      FUCK JOE BIDEN!!!

      This motherfucker had ALL OF THESE EPSTEIN FILES and did NOTHING with them. NOTHING!!!

      He did absolutely nothing to punish the wealthy/powerful behind January 6th, he did nothing with the pedophile ring and just peaced out and gave the keys to fucking Nazis.

      He will forever be remembered as a complete failure. His legacy is Trump and letting our democracy get destroyed without any pushback.

        I’m not even talking about that. That crap was under seal by a (I think GOP appointed) judge. IIRC, there was fuck all Biden could legally do there.

        I’m talking about the open & shut espionage & sedition cases that the Biden DoJ had on Trump and completely squandered.

          He’s also guilty of enabling, and in some cases directly sending American armed forces to participate in, an internationally-recognized genocide.

          Biden’s name should literally never be able to be spoken without that fact being brought up.

    Next elections would still be

    One side - 306 (49.7% vote)

    Other side - 232 (48.6% vote)

    and you can do nothing to change this. I can bet on this

      Haven’t you heard? The Orange Utan and his fat tramp friend Bannon have already announced that they’ll deploy the SS ICE at polling stations. As if nobody saw that one coming even before Trump inexplicably won the vote in 2024…

      I don’t remember Hitler shitting his pants during a press conference. Actually he seemed constipated most of the time.

      And I don’t think there were allegations of him being member of a pedophile ring.

      I hate comparing Trump with Hitler, it almost seems a praise to the Austrian.

        I don’t really see a point in that comparison - These two people are evil on its own, there is no point in playing games on who is less evil in this regard. Also it is misinformation to be saying trump is worse than him, as you’re forgetting about the genocide that he did - trump isn’t yet at that point.

        It is also important to bring in the fact that trump wasnt just a pedo, but a sex offender. Him being both doesn’t make him worse than hitler.

      We should be voting with guillotines. We should be giving “hanging chads” new meaning.

      The media is fully captured by the rightist ruling class, capturing the soap box and ballot box. They have packed the courts with traitorous loyalists, depriving us of the jury box. Only one box is left.

    I’m stupid, can someone help me understand how we calculate the 18 point swing?

    Just after Trump was inaugurated last February, the result was 58 percent saying Trump was doing a better job than Biden

    But in the new poll, 51 percent said Trump is doing a worse job than President Biden did — a net swing of 18 points

    2025 poll 58% say Trump > Biden

    2026 poll 49% say Trump > Biden (aka 100 - 51)

    58-49 = 9 point swing?

      What you’re missing is that this is two opposing viewpoints in a zero-sum game. You’re in one bucket or the other.

      So going from 58 to 49 means that Trump looks 9 points worse, but also that Biden looks 9 points better. That’s an 18-point swing.
