"In the United States, one of the men vying for the presidency faces 91
criminal charges in four concurrent criminal cases. He uses openly fascist
language, and has mused about “terminating” the Constitution. Just last week,
he said that should he win the election, he would be a “dictator” for day one
of his presidency (but not after that).
He currently sits four percentage points ahead of the incumbent president.
Last week, a
Wall Street Journal poll of 1,500 US voters found that, in a
hypothetical head-to-head, Democratic President Joe Biden would attract 43% of
votes compared to presumptive Republican nominee Donald Trump’s 47%. When five
independent candidates were added to the mix, Biden’s projected vote dropped to
31%, compared to Trump’s 37%. The same poll measured Biden’s current approval
rating at 37%.
In a country that prides itself on being the “oldest democracy in the world,”
how is it possible that an explicit anti-democrat is outpolling the
democratically elected president? Why is Biden so unpopular?"
