Wow, look at that soaring 42% approval rating, which is admittedly better than the 36 percent or so he was flat-lining at a few weeks back:

I don't recall Trump's numbers being so stellar, either. I think this has more to do with cynicism felt by Americans for politicians in general, rather than just for Biden. Especially as Biden has gotten a sh*tlaod of legislation passed in recent weeks and months. Meanwhile, Trump's promise to "build the wall and make Mexico pay for it," that YUUUGE health care reform, and Infrastructure Week, never materialized.

I find it amusing that Trump is the bar that Biden supporters set for him. Not Obama, or Clinton, or even Bush 2. He's such a bad president, they can only compare him to the president they consider the worst president in history.

Every president gets compared to their predecessor so it’s pretty normal.

As a matter of fact, Biden's accomplished a great deal as President. He's compared to Trump so often only because Trump, as the latest ex President, stands out the most in people's memories. That, and because Trump voters cling to the baseless fantasy that he was somehow the greatest President America ever had, the finest specimen of manhood, and probably Christ in his Second Coming, and thus need to be corrected.

I still find it just as amusing.

Being amused by Biden is your right. Just as being filled with contempt and dread for Trump is mine.

Hmm, Spokane Wa., is only 423km away from me. I could ride there with saddelbags full of the anti-trumpiest Canadian beers in 2 tanks of gas. :D (but to return home same day I'd have to break my single day ride record by ~150km - which is possible w/ a little chemical assistance from redbull or the like.)

No I still find Biden and Trump being put together like bacon and eggs, franks and beans, death and taxes, politics and corruption amusing.

That is your right, even though I personally fail to see much similarity beyond both being closer to the grave than to the crib.

Libertarians should hate Trump much more than they hate “liberals.”

A blind hatred towards anything is just…..blind.

I wouldn’t vote for a Hitler or a Stalin merely because I “hate” liberals.

Trump wants to establish a poor man’s version of a dictatorship.

Yep….Trump feels like he’s stuck in a dog’s collar….because too many people object to his desire to obtain absolute power—without the encumbrances of a representative democracy.

Tough nuggies on Trump :P

I, myself, would rather live in a representative democracy than an abject dictatorship. No matter how overweening the "woke" crowd can be; no matter how irritatingly blind the MAGA folks are.

Many people, like me, neither love nor hate Trump. But it's the ones with obsessive fuming hated towards him, that seem worse people than his supporters.

Trump supporters have a tendency to believe in things I don't believe in----and to sometimes believe in stupid idiot conspiracy theories---like the one where Hillary Clinton supposedly hosted pedophiliac orgies in a pizza place basement.

I never was a "political" person until the advent of Trump.
