The depressing thing is that even the people who say they don't support him now will vote for Republicans next election, because they're stupid, hateful and afraid of what they don't understand

And there's a lot that they don't understand...

Unfortunately, I think it's worse than that

Democrats talk about people being treated more equally, more fairly (although to us in the civilised world, they're still incredibly corrupt and right-wing)

People in 'Murica don't want that. They want to be able to hate openly. They want brown people, gay people, any anyone who doesn't believe in the same bullshit to suffer

They like cruelty

To hate the correct people is seen as a virtue in their world. They talk about their vengeful god, they want the world to end so they can go to their paradise (assuming that they're among the chosen)

It's not that they think the left are bad. They know that the left wants a fairer world, and that's threatening to them because they know deep down that they couldn't make it if there was a level playing field where their whiteness doesn't give them an inherent head start in life

They are so afraid to lose their privilege that they see equality as losing out

They literally just vote for whoever their pastor tells them to vote for. It's authoritarianism all the way down.

Biden got in office. They may not vote at all.

I just BELIEVE in his HEART that he’s a GODLY man! After all, pastor says that those of us that the LORD gift the most are the most holy!

/s, but these motherfuckers exist and we don’t make it illegal to brainwash more. Religion should be abolished

That article says 42% think he is doing a good job, which is basically the same as the number of Americans who voted for him. His numbers aren't changing at all. This is another piece about how he is going down and yet even with all his crimes he will remain in power and doing horrible things.

Others polled said "he hasn't gone too far enough".

he is still at 42% approval. Basically he does represent vast amount of americans so saying he is the problem isnt the right way to look at it. American culture, media, society is the problem.

I don't know, I think he could win again.
