What's The Difference Between Strongly-Approve and Strongly-Disapprove?

Some folks did a review of President Biden and asked in a poll.....how many strongly approve of his performance, and strongly disapprove.

Strongly approve?  20-percent.

Strongly disapprove?  47-percent.

The rest are in the middle....either with no opinion, marginally approve, or marginally approve....which amounts to 33-percent.

In most countries, with coalition governments....there would be fallout going on, and a likely collapse of the coalition situation.....meaning a new election within 90 days.  Luckily in the US....we can just keep going, and likely escalating the negativity even more.

In this case....only one out of every five really feel confident in the actions of President Biden and the achievements of the past year.  In some ways, this is a super positive thing....that these people can overlook mistakes or issues and just accept the current trends.  

Is part of this trend the issue that fewer people watch CNN than ever before?  Well....yes, that probably is one of the ten different issues going on and part of the negative landscape.  If we could just find ways to force people into viewing CNN more often....this could be a great idea for the Biden-team.

The fact that Joe promised a lot in 2020, and has yet to really deliver?  Well.....yeah, that is probably another big issue.

Any chances this will reverse in 2022?  That's really a big part of the situation....people can't expect much to improve.
