As Biden’s poll numbers collapse, Colorado Democrats cling to abortion rage to hold onto power

Jul 11, 2022

In a devastating new poll for Democrats, voters overwhelmingly rejected President Biden for a second term with just 26% supporting a reelection effort in 2024.

But wait, there’s more.

The New York Times/Siena College poll reveals only 13% of Americans believe the nation is on the right track.

It’s a brutal wake-up call for the party-in-charge as they head into the November election.

For Mr. Biden, that bleak national outlook has pushed his job approval rating to a perilously low point. Republican opposition is predictably overwhelming, but more than two-thirds of independents also now disapprove of the president’s performance, and nearly half disapprove strongly.

 

The backlash against Mr. Biden and desire to move in a new direction were particularly acute among younger voters. In the survey, 94 percent of Democrats under the age of 30 said they would prefer a different presidential nominee.

Someone put a fork in Biden, he’s done.

 

The new national poll comes as a Denver Post headline ponders whether 90 days of rage and abortion protests will drive Democrats and independents to cast their ballots accordingly.

Spoiler alert, the article concludes in the last few paragraphs that it will not:

And while recent shifts in abortion rights, both for and against them, may motivate the politically engaged, Democratic political consultant Ted Trimpa said he’s “frustratingly pessimistic” that abortion rights won’t break through to many who aren’t.

 

While it’s a dominating topic now, it’s a long time until November, he said.

 

“I don’t think it’s going to be the fire (Democrats) want it to be,” Trimpa said, referring to motivating voters. “I hope I’m wrong.”

We find ourselves in agreement with the Democrat consultant. We hope he’s right.
