President Biden had a poll come out and it really lessened his situation among the general public. The poll? Roughly 82-percent of people said the nation is divided, and is not coming together. This would mean only around 18-percent of people who either believe it's one unified nation, or didn't really agree with anything in the poll answer column.
Adding to this mess....around one-third of the polled folks felt that the nation was headed in the 'right-direction'.....meaning the bulk of Americans didn't see much of a positive trend coming around.
So I come to this enormous weakness of President Biden....marginal salesmanship. What Bill Clinton and Barak Obama had in excess....was salesmanship. They could take a average bill, or dismal government program....whip up a frenzy with the public and get two-thirds of Americans to buy into something of minimal value.
Biden has never had this type of salesmanship skill. You can walk through his forty-odd years in DC, and find almost no occasion where he could 'sell' people on something.
As for the bulk of Americans not believing in a unified nation? Well....this ought to worry most folks.
This would lessen confidence in Congress, the court system, the police, and so on.
If this were to increase from 82-percent to 90-percent? You'd be looking at a pretty big mess and no one in DC capable of putting public confidence back into the system.
