We are hearing a lot of people expressing happiness at the low Biden poll numbers, and some are looking forward to a Democrat crash later this year. One conservative outlet stated, “The polling confirms voters are fed up with Mr. Biden’s failures. After a year of Biden-driven decline, Americans are looking for a positive, forward-looking alternative.” Perhaps they are counting their chickens before they are hatched?
This writer looked up some history about changes in control of the House and Senate and found the following:
(1) The Democrats gained the House and Senate back in 2006. President George Bush’s approval ratings that year, according to Gallup, hovered in the high 30th percentile, with brief moments above 40. If Biden’s approval ratings remain low throughout the year, predictions of a Republican sweep of House and Senate might materialize. However, we cannot forget that by 2006, it became clear than Pres. Bush and his secretary of state, the revered phony Gen. Colin Powell, had presented bald-faced lies to the public about the existence of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq as an excuse to invade that terrible country. So far, a lie of that magnitude has not been forthcoming from the Biden tirades and drivel. Rather, we have been blessed with merely hearing a bunch of lesser lies and distortions.
