When President Joe Biden gave his State of the Union speech, both sides of the aisle stood and clapped, more than once. Given how long it has been since that occurred, it creates just a little corner of hope. It appears that Americans like that feeling of optimism and patriotism that President Biden gave them, too, according to a new CNN Poll.
CNN‘s poll showed that 55 percent of President Biden’s audience liked what he had to say. Although 45 percent of the country claimed he had not given “enough attention” to our more important issues. Of course, he has had a pandemic, two Democratic senators who killed his most important bills, and a few other little problems to juggle during the year he has had in office.
Before the State of the Union speech, those numbers were considerably worse. Only 44 percent thought he had the right priories while 56 percent disagreed.
The ever-important Independents had been falling away from our president’s side. Only 30 percent indicated that President Biden had the right priorities, but that quickly shifted to 48 percent after his speech.
When it came to the economy, around 30 percent of the poll’s participants believed his economic policies would move our nation in the right direction. After the speech, that number virtually doubled to 62 percent. Before the speech, 64 percent of those watching it said, the president’s handling of the COVID pandemic would move us in the right direction. That number leaped to 73 percent afterward.
