Here's an apparently unpopular opinion: Joe Biden is not failing or flailing. His presidency is not in peril.
It's hard to see this through the blizzard of over-the-top headlines such as, "Biden Can Still Rescue His Presidency," "How the Biden Administration Lost Its Way" and "Biden's Epic Failures."
Everyone needs to take a breath: It's been one year. These headlines could just as easily read, "Joe Biden Fails to Fix Every Problem in the World in 365 days."
What drives much of the "presidency in peril" coverage is Biden's approval ratings. CNN's poll of polls, released Thursday, found that 41% of Americans approve of the way Joe Biden is handling his job while 54% disapprove.
Low approval ratings are used as a proxy by various political and ideological factions to argue that the president needs to do more of what they want and if he doesn't, he won't get reelected. (Spoiler alert: nobody will cast their vote in three years based on how they feel today about Biden). Progressives argue ratings are low because Biden is not progressive enough and moderates and "Never Trump" Republicans argue it's because Biden is too liberal. It's become conventional wisdom in the media that Biden's approval ratings started dropping because of how he handled the Afghanistan withdrawal. But Gallup's senior editor Jeff Jones told Politico in November that his declining poll numbers began before that, during the Delta Covid-19 variant surge.

Clap for the fearless leader or lose your social credit!
Hes not failing. He’s providing excellent service for his Chinese masters.
Senile Joe decides nothing.
He is the meat puppet for public appearances.
Wow, she used to be almost reasonable. A long time ago
I agree with Kirsten. Our Globalist/NWO elite overlords installed Joe because he was easiest to manipulate. He doesn’t call the shots, they do. They needed him for the great reset.
Yeah, she did seem that way. But, did you know that way back in the day, she dated Anthony Weiner for a while? It makes one question whether her judgement has always been flawed, and her positions bent to those which are desired by her employer.
Kirsten Powers is trying to high on some copium.
Stupid Americans just can’t see how good they got with Bidon.
Biden has 79% approval rating from Dems.
"Joe Biden is not failing or flailing. His presidency is not in peril."
CNN silent as guest destroys Biden to their faces
Typical mindless kirsten powers. Maybe she can score a commie-la ‘fweedumb’ hawiss signature series towel.
..."If Biden doesn't Build Back Better soon he will be booted back"
So how come only 28% of voters actually want Biden to run again. According to the 100% pro Biden AP.
“A wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.”
“Joe Biden is not failing, Frodo Baggins. Nor is he flailing. He is accomplishing exactly what his handlers want him to accomplish.”
“Joe Biden Fails to Fix Every Problem in the World in 365 days.”
Can she be serious? The headlines are about the problems he created himself, not problems in the world.
