President Biden’s policy agenda is incredibly popular, much more popular than his opponent’s. But Biden the man? Not so much.

The question now is whom to blame for the approval gap between the president and his agenda: voters, the media or Biden himself.

Democrats have long argued that their policies are more popular than those of Republicans. In a recent blind test conducted by YouGov, that was unmistakably true. The polling organization asked Americans what they thought about major policies proposed by Biden and Donald Trump without specifying who proposed them. The idea was to see how the public perceived ideas when stripped of tribal associations.

Biden’s agenda was the winner, hands down.

Of the 28 Biden proposals YouGov asked about, 27 were supported by more people than opposed them. Impressively, 24 received support from more than 50 percent of respondents.

    Don’t forget about supporting segregation! (Side note: yes, he’s that old.)

      It’s almost like people can change their minds about things over time.

        Or politicians will say whatever is popular to maintain wealth and power. Do you not think many right wing spokespeople can be bought and have their minds changed in exchange for money? Does that mean they have changed though? They are still narcissistic.

          Yeah, I have too, but not everyone is like that. Some are raised poorly and have to un-learn racism.

        Nobody who voted for segregation because they didn’t want their kids living in a “racial jungle” should he the sitting idealogue of the “progressive” party of this country. Sorry, Dems should’ve put Biden out to pasture months ago.

        It’s how far back they have to go to find a criticism that seems valid, if you don’t think.
