      Would be funny to run back the “I approve of this message” counterplay, but I think they have too much respect for Biden to do that.

      Yeah but I don’t think you were considering voting for Trump… I think that in practice associating her with an unpopular president’s actions isn’t a bad idea when her main selling point is that she isn’t either Biden or Trump.

          Biden’s approval rating is lower than Trump’s is right now and lower than Trump’s was at any time between this point during his presidency and the 2020 election, although it isn’t lower than Trump’s was at the lowest point during his presidency.

          It’s also lower than Nixon’s or GWB’s were at any point during their first terms (although GWB isn’t a useful reference due to 9/11).

            yeah Im comparing presidential terms but im not so sure trumps was not lower at the end of his one term but again I was just using full term ratings although bidens is tentative since we can’t get the last 6 monthsish.

              Trump’s was lower at the end of his term than Biden’s is now, but I’m not sure how relevant that is since it was after everyone knew that Trump had lost the election (and then after the January 6th riot).
