>> Biden has a 60+% approval rating Yes. Because he hasn't said anything. And because the media have created a problem for themselves: If they criticize him, it is an admission that they fucked us all by participating in the rigging of the election. Slowly, they're coming around to realize they have to admit it. Maggie Haberman couldn't -- In one of the most convoluted statements she has made to date (saying a lot), she basically said of the media blunder with the the Wuhan lab, "We were wrong, but it was Trump's and Pompeo's fault." So, it isn't HER responsibility SHE was wrong and reported a lie. It was Trump's fault because they didn't give her the secret evidence so NYT just made up its mind to make up a bullshit story. If newspapers could be held liable for their incompetence, this would put the NYT out of business. To your point, the media cannot make a living doing what they've done the last four years, and they will either have to start reporting on Biden or it will cost them. There is no excitement about Biden, he's an idiot, which is indisputable if you just watch what he is doing. Why doesn't this thread talk about Biden successes? Like how well the Iran negotiations are going? Biden's support is coming from two things -- (1) Media malpractice, and (2) Leftists not understanding a damned thing about economics.

Chris, I would just point out one other thing. When you have left-leaning bankrollers of Biden like Buffett and Jamie Dimon, and others, cautioning that the economy is in serious inflation trouble, you would do well dial back the stupid spending. The "infrastructure bill" is no more than 1/3 infrastructure. The rest is money for people, and it will drive the final nail the economic coffin. We're already in serious trouble. I'm just grateful the Red States are showing the people what sensible government is about. I'll show myself out ;)
