Put 'Em To Sleep Joe!

MSNBC reporters apparently had trouble locating many people who watched President Biden's address to a joint session of Congress Wednesday night.

As NewsBusters highlighted, NBC News correspondent Priscilla Thompson reported from Atlanta on Thursday ahead of Biden's drive-in rally to mark one hundred days in office and tout the agenda he presented to the American people during his prime-time address.

"I’ve got to tell you, most of the folks that I’ve spoken to here did not actually watch Joe Biden’s address last night," Thompson told MSNBC anchor Hallie Jackson. "I’ve spoken to around a dozen folks and only two of them watched and listened to what he had to say last night."

Jackson then turned to correspondent Ellison Barber, reporting from Coral Gables, Florida, and asked her what "voters" there thought of Biden's speech.

"Yeah, we’re seeing some of what Priscilla touched on there," Barber responded. "About two-thirds of the people who we have tried to talk to here said they did not watch the president’s address -- not necessarily because they were boycotting it or intentionally not watching it, they just went to bed, they had to work, they had other things. This wasn’t top of their to-do list, though many said they plan to catch up on it some time today."

Biden's speech drew 22 million views; about half of Trump's first address in 2017.

And meanwhile Biden has an approval rating of ~ 54% according to polling aggregators RCP and 538. Trump never broke 50% in either of these polls. In four years.

In two of the most recent polls, The Hill and Politico, Biden enjoys a 60% overall approval rating.

Nice job. Might I add that he was the first president to regularize 1 trillion dollar deficits, a feat he achieved with his first two budgets and came BEFORE the pandemic.

Only 4 trillion plus annual deficits EVAH. One for W during wartime and then 3 for Trump. 2021 is on Trump too so that will mean he exceeded a trillion deficits all 4 of his budget years. Will add over a third to the national debt.

GOP are really irresponsible fiscally

Fixed it for you;

The Top Five Debt Contributors by Percentage

Franklin D. Roosevelt (1933-1945): President Roosevelt had the largest percentage increase to the debt. Although he only added $236 billion, this was a nearly 1,050% increase from the $22.5 billion debt level left by President Herbert Hoover. The Great Depression and the New Deal contributed to FDR's yearly deficits, but the biggest cost was World War II: It added $186.3 billion to the debt between 1942 and 1945.4

Woodrow Wilson (1913-1921): President Wilson was the second-largest contributor to the debt, percentage-wise. He added $21 billion, which was a 724% increase over the $2.9 billion debt of his predecessor. World War I contributed to the deficits that raised the national debt.4

Ronald Reagan (1981-1989): President Reagan increased the debt by $1.85 trillion, or by 186%. Reagan's brand of supply-side economics didn't grow the economy enough to offset the lost revenue from its tax cuts. Reagan also increased the defense budget by 35%.5

George W. Bush (2001-2009): President Bush added $6.1 trillion, or a 101% increase, putting him in fourth. Bush launched the War on Terror in response to the 9/11 attacks, which led to multi-trillion-dollar spending on the War in Afghanistan and the Iraq War. Bush also dealt with the 2001 recession and the 2008 financial crisis.6

Barack Obama (2009-2017): Under President Obama, the national debt grew the most dollar-wise ($8.6 trillion) but was fifth in terms of percentage: 74%. Obama fought the Great Recession with an $831 billion economic stimulus package and added $858 billion through tax cuts.6

I'm glad that you included above the number of years each was president.

All the presidents listed ahead of Trump served in office 8 - 12 years.

Trump served for 4 years, and did so miserably.

Trump took over a thriving economy gifted to him by Obama and immediately put us in a hole with a $2.1 trillion tax cut and then brought us a recession in February 2020 -- go Donnie!

Trump came into office promising to eliminate the deficit and he of course LIED. You cons don't care about that, but I'm just pointing out facts.

This is from the site you linked to:


During the 2016 presidential campaign, Republican candidate Donald Trump promised he would eliminate the nation’s debt in eight years. Instead, his budget estimates showed that he would actually add at least $8.3 trillion, increasing the U.S. debt to $28.5 trillion by 2025.2 However, the national debt reached that figure much sooner. When President Trump took office in January 2017, the national debt stood at $19.9 trillion. In October 2020, the national debt reached a new high of $27 trillion. That's an increase of almost 36% in less than four years.

So by your math if you break it up by terms Barack Obama at
74% for his two terms would be an average of 37% per term compared to Trump's 36%.
Also you seem to be forgetting 4 trillion of that 7 trillion increase was for Covid stimulus. But don't let the facts get in the way of a good story.

Obama had to clean up the Great Recession caused by Bush's policies. Remember the auto industry? Or the airline industry? Or the collapsed banks? Obama was forced into that spending. As were Wilson and FDR.

Trump came into office promising to erase the deficit yet within weeks of being in office he went about doing just the opposite. You Trump cultists would be going ballistic now if Biden ran on a platform of no new taxes on corporations and the wealthy and then within weeks proposed just the opposite. That is what Trump did. He was handed a robust and thriving economy and then piled on unnecessary debt that benefited no one but the wealthy while sticking in nice tax loopholes for commercial real estate owners like himself.

Them's the facts. Trump lied to you cultists and went directly against the supposed republican fiscal conservative philosophy. And you cultists all embraced it and continue to defend your Criminal-in-Chief.


Here you go, from conservative publication The Hill:

Senate Republican Whip John Thune (S.D.) said “unfortunately” fiscal concerns are “probably” not as important to the GOP base as 10 years ago and that Trump helped transform the party’s priorities.

“It wasn’t something that was an important issue for President Trump, and so many of our base voters align themselves with President Trump. It’s almost like now debt, deficits, spending become abstract issues that a lot of folks aren’t paying attention to and should be,” he said.

If Trump hadn't ignored CV 19 and let it spiral out of control we would have been in recovery mode many months ago. He would have probably been re-elected. The GOP stood by silently, even participated in Trump's indifference and political theater.

And btw the economy was already sputtering into a stall mode before Covid hit.

Yes sense of Facts is delusional.
In Trumps state of the union address he warned us of the the upcoming pandemic...Nancy ripped up the speech and said "its all lies"

nancy was out and about in down down san fran china town in the early stages telling everyone to come outside, hang out, there is nothing to fear.

Trump had to issue travel bans to/from china. your leaders were appalled said this was "racist" and "xenophobic"

All this while TRUMP was fighing a BS impeachment for a bs "quid pro quo" of which nothing came out of it. But in fact it was ok for biden to do the same while he was vp.

You deny all this? you are a sick delusional psychopath, deaf, blind and dumb sheep is all you will ever be.

^^^^ Facts not in evidence I’m afraid.

We were in recession before the pandemic. Without a crystal ball your statement is just fake news.

Like all of the nonsense you post
