Two Polls Show Brandon Got No Bounce From His Slurring, Incoherent State of the Union

On Friday, a very unlikely poll found that Biden had gained eight points in approval, Egg with Legs Chris Cillizza to wet himself in excitement:

"m" points out that Joe's nose looks absolutely rekt in that photo.

A new NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll suggests that all might be changing. Biden's overall job approval rating among Americans is at 47% in the survey, up 8 points from where he was in the same poll last month.

I didn't mention that because I try not to post bad news late on Friday and also because that poll had the stink of nonsense.

I mean: Eight points? Are you joking?!

Two other polls have now come out which say that poll was, in fact, joking. It was a fluke outlier.

An IBD/TIPP poll finds Biden gained a single point of approval, going from a low of 38% to 39%, owing solely to a gain among Democrats.

An IBD/TIPP poll conducted after the speech on March 1 found that, overall, 39 percent of respondents approve of the job he is doing as president, compared to 47 percent who disapprove.

This is a slight improvement from the 38 percent approval in February's IBD/TIPP poll--the lowest figure since Biden took office.

...

According to the IBD/TIPP poll for March, 74 percent of Democratic voters approve of the president's performance, with 15 percent expressing disapproval.

This is an improvement of 8 percentage points since February, when 66 percent of Democrats approved of Biden.

His approval from independents remains stuck at a woeful 27%. Though his disapproval from independents fell from 55% to 53%, if Brandon wants to hang his hat on that. (Note that the more you slice up a sample, the less likely these numbers are to be meaningful or accurate.)

The Quinippiac poll also finds Brandon stuck in a quagmire called Alzheimer's.

For his overall job approval, Americans give Biden a negative 38 - 51 percent job approval rating with 11 percent not offering an opinion. This compares to a negative 37 - 52 percent job approval rating a week ago.

rhenningantx points out this same poll points out:

As the world witnesses what is happening to Ukraine, Americans were asked what they would do if they were in the same position as Ukrainians are now: stay and fight or leave the country? A majority (55 percent) say they would stay and fight, while 38 percent say they would leave the country. Republicans say 68 - 25 percent and independents say 57 - 36 percent they would stay and fight, while Democrats say 52 - 40 percent they would leave the country.

So you know how much all those Ukranian flags in twitter profiles mean.

Gee wonder what the partisan breakdown of that would be.
