GOP’s Lead in Bid to Recapture Congress Widens According to Rassmussen

By ,

It seems as though the US Congress is moving towards the GOP in the most recent Rasmussen polling.

According to their latest poll, the 2022 midterm elections are now just 11 days away, and Republicans have a seven-point lead in their bid to recapture control of Congress.

If the elections for Congress were held today, 49% of Likely U.S. Voters would vote for the Republican candidate, while 42% would vote for the Democrat. Just four percent (4%) would vote for some other candidate, but another five percent (5%) are not sure.

The GOP lead has increased by three points from last week when they led 47% to 43%. Republicans have led the Generic Congressional Ballot all year, although their lead has narrowed since mid-July when they led by as much as 10 points.

n October 2018, before voters handed Democrats their first House majority in eight years, Democrats held a three-point advantage (47% to 44%) in the generic ballot question. The margin was still a statistical dead heat – Republicans 46%, Democrats 45% – in the final poll before Democrats won a slim House majority while Republicans gained Senate seats to maintain control of that chamber.

The results of the polling are shown below:

 

New Rasmussen Shows Majority Want Biden Impeached, Including Third of Democrats Polled

By ,

A new poll from Rasmussen shows that a majority of voters believe President Joe Biden should be impeached.

The poll shows that not only did majorities of Republican and Independent voters poll in favor of a hypothetical Biden impeachment, but a third of Democrat voters would like to see the President out as well. 

Townhall reports:

President Joe Biden has embarrassed the U.S. countless times, including making his own party want to crawl under a rock every time he speaks in front of a group of reporters.

According to a new Rasmussen Reports survey, Republican and Independent voters overwhelmingly agree that Biden should be impeached, along with a third of Democrats.

Overall, 52 percent of likely U.S. voters say they would support the impeachment of Biden, with 38 percent saying they would strongly support it.

The poll margin includes 77 percent of Republicans, 50 percent of Independents and 32 percent of Democrats who would like to see the current president get booted from his position.

However, less than half of voters believe that Republicans will actually take action to impeach Biden.

47 percent believe it is likely the GOP will attempt to impeach the president, while 43 percent don’t see it happening in his first term.

“Support for impeaching Biden is highest among voters 40-64, who are also most likely to think that if Republicans win in the midterms, they actually will impeach the president. Retirees are least supportive of impeaching Biden,” the poll concluded.

Worst President Ever? Hunter’s Business Dealings and a Shocking New CNN Poll Have Democrats Dragging Biden to the Chopping Block

By ,

A new survey that was recently conducted by SSRS and CNN has determined that even the far-left is struggling to find any redeeming qualities in Joe Biden’s Administration. 

The poll shows that the public’s view of the state of our nation is the worst it’s been since 2009, and its view on the economy is the lowest it’s been since 2011. Roughly 7 out of ten respondents say that Joe Biden has failed to address the country’s most pressing issues.

Biden’s current approval, at least according to this particular poll, is resting at a meager 38%, with 62% disapproving. The approval rating of Biden’s handling of the economy is at 30%, while the president’s handling of inflation sits at 25%. Both numbers are the lowest for any president in history.

A staggering 82% of those polled said that economic conditions are poor. About 4 in 10 (41%) described the economy as “very poor.” The poll found that 64% of Americans believe the economy is currently in a recession. Our economic situation is bleak, but that might not be the only reason the current president is polling so low.

Another poll conducted by Rasmussen Reports suggests that the American voters are aware that Hunter Biden was involved in some shady business deals and that they believe the current sitting President benefited from these deals. This is despite Big Media’s best efforts to completely ignore the stories.

While President Joe Biden has denied involvement in his son Hunter’s foreign business dealings, most voters don’t believe the president’s denials.

The new national telephone and online survey by Rasmussen Reports finds that 69% of Likely U.S. voters believe it’s likely the president was aware of at least some of Hunter Biden’s major foreign business dealings, including 49% who think it is Very Likely. Just 22% don’t think it is likely President Biden was aware of his son’s foreign deals, and 10% are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Burisma may be all but swept under the rug at this point, but the new survey comes on the heels of Hunter’s attorney claiming that his client has no more interest in the two Chinese companies currently in question. However, a report from Breitbart has recently shown that may not be the case:

Skaneateles, a company Hunter Biden founded with a ten percent stake in BHR Partners, still holds a ten percent interest in the company despite claims to the contrary, according to Chinese business records.

Hunter Biden “no longer holds any interest, directly or indirectly in either BHR or Skaneateles,” Hunter’s lawyer Chris Clark claimed in November to the New York Times.

But Chinese business records contradict Clark’s claim. “Chinese site Qixin says the latest filing comes from BHR itself and that it was filed last month,” the Washington Examiner reported. “The 2021 annual report by BHR has an ‘announcement date’ of June 20. Skaneateles is still listed as a ‘shareholder’ with a 10% stake.”

China’s business registry may not have been changed to reflect Hunter’s vacated interest. But with Hunter’s global profile as the United States president’s son, the omission seems unlikely.

It should be noted that Hunter’s representative has also refused to say who bought the stake in the company and for what price.

Hunter’s possible part ownership of BHR Partners is relevant because BHR Partners is the same company linked to Chinese oil interests to which the Biden administration reportedly sold 950,000 barrels of oil from the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserve earlier this month.

Something stinks to high heavens, but we’ve been engulfed in the stink long enough to barely even recognize it at this point. The information above certainly makes Biden’s recent bulk sale of US oil to China amidst an energy crisis all the more suspicious.

Recent Polling Shows Majority of Democrats Now Want SCOTUS Abolished

By ,

Democrats, who remain largely unaware of the great victory the Supreme Court has secured against the EPA, are in a tizzy over the Roe v Wade overturn. A recent poll shows that a majority of Democrats have an “unfavorable opinion” of the highest court in the land and believe that it should be abolished.

The poll was conducted by Rasmussen:

According to the report:

A new national telephone and online survey by Rasmussen Reports and the Heartland Institute finds that 52% of Likely U.S. voters view the Supreme Court favorably, including 29% who have a Very Favorable opinion of the court. Forty-three percent (43%) view the Supreme Court unfavorably, including 25% with a Very Unfavorable opinion. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

In the wake of a recent string of decisions strengthening the Second Amendment, reining in the power of the Environmental Protection Agency, and ending the constitutional right to an abortion, however, Democratic voters mostly disapprove of the Supreme Court. Only 33% of Democrats view the court favorably, while 63% have an unfavorable opinion of the court, including 40% of Democrats who have a Very Unfavorable view of the Supreme Court. By contrast, 72% of Republicans and 52% of independent voters have a favorable opinion of the court.

A majority of Democrats view the Supreme Court as racist and discriminatory against women, and favor either “packing” the court by adding extra justices or replacing the existing court with democratically elected justices.

Democrats also seem to believe that the court is racist despite having 2 people of color sitting as justices.

In a nutshell, the far-left Democrats are livid that the court changed under President Trump and has more conservatives that don’t make decisions politically but make their decisions based on the law.

Everyone Else’s Fault: 79% Describe the Biden Economy as “Poor”, This Time He Blames Supreme Court

By ,

Americans might not be able to agree on much right now, but one opinion unites us all, and that is how utterly incompetent Joe Biden and his administration are at running a nation… Unless of course, the objective is to run it into the ground.

85% of Americans believe that the nation is on the wrong track, this includes roughly 8 out of 10 democrats. 79% describe the economy as “poor” according to a recent AP-NORC poll.

Dissatisfaction with how the president is handling the economy has been growing, as inflation continues to rise, interest rates increase, and stocks entered a bear market. Twenty-eight percent approve of Biden’s stewardship of the economy, down from 51% a year ago.

According to AP:

Seventy-nine percent of adults consider the national economy to be in poor condition.  The increasingly negative perceptions are driven by increasing pessimism among Democrats.  A year ago, 37% of Democrats and 68% of Republicans described the national economy as poor. In the latest survey, 67% of Democrats say national economy is poor, and 90% of Republicans say the same.

On Friday morning Joe Biden was questioned on his devastating record and on an America that is going backward. In response to the criticism, Joe Biden employed a tried and true technique: he blamed it on somebody else.

This time Biden spared Putin from the blame and instead focused on the Supreme Court, that is only after spouting a string of completely made-up facts. Take a listen:

What exactly does the supreme court have to do with inflation and Biden’s approval? Your guess is as good as mine.
