To set this up you can be sure this was a friendly poll trying to help the senile old pervert as Quinnipiac always overweights Dems.  Can you say backfire?  Some highlights....or lowlights if you are stupid enough to still support this guy.

Overall approval at 38%, down 4% from a month ago and still way too high

55% think they are not competent to run the govt.....proving that 45% are delusional or totally ignorant of what is going on

48%-50% approval/disapproval on handling the pandemic......wait till millions lose their jobs for not taking the jab

39%-55% on handling the economy....no surprise givengas prices,  inflation and the stock market these days

37%-58% on his job as commander in chief........can you say Afghanistan, China and Russia on the march, etc.?

34%-58% on foreign policy.....ditto on the above and much more

23%-67% on dealing with the situation at the U.S.-Mexican border........this one makes me fear for the 23%, what are they thinking?

Literally double digit negative numbers in almost every category!!  If 81M people voted for the guy there is a crap load of buyer's remorse out there. Under normal circumstances I wouldn't sympathize with them but we are all paying the price for their ignorance. And think about it, not one event outside of his control has caused these abysmal numbers.  This is all the work of whoever the wizards are behind the curtain telling Dementia Joe what to do or say.  He is too mentally disabled to be held accountable....that's on Dr. Jill, PhD, a doctor in case you were wondering, Susan Rice and her team of incompetent morons.  But hey...

The election was bogus.  You could watch all the cheating on TV back when I actually watched tv.  Hopefully most states will tighten up their elections and it may set records on backlash.

She holds an EdD. a much easier degree to achieve and absolutely worthless in any private endeaver.  Her dissertation also includes multiple BASIC math and grammitacal errors, even when calculting simple percentages.  

 I have known some educated idiots with PhD's and nothing but total incompetents with EdD's.  Thats just my expereince, yours could be different...lol.

Now Lifer, you know that Dr. Jill demands she be addressed as Dr. Jill cause she has a PhD and should be properly addressed as a doctor.  Keep this up and you will be sent to reeducation camps to get your mind right.  Me, I am going to continue to refer to Dr. Jill as Dr. Jill because she is a doctor of something don't ya know.  I don't have time to be sent to camp. I'm too busy arguing with Wix over the jab.

EdD and PhD are both doctorates so Dr. is appropriate in the education field.  But in the real world outside the education setting seems to be an effort to equate the title to medical doctors which is a sign of insecurity.  

either way she is dumb as dirt.

Agreed....funny thing is I work with a bunch of PhD in the sciences and not one of them asks to be called Dr.  And if you read her dissertation you would see exactly how intellectually vacuous she is.  It is a total joke and would get a C- as a high school senior project.  She obviously has self esteem issues to go along with her being dumb as a rock.  I specifically did not get a PhD because I saw the research process as the racket that it is......publish or perish.  I was more interested in practical work and challenge of succeeding in the business world and not the ivory tower.  But a lot of the PhD's I work with are super smart and capable...but none of them have a PhD in Education.

I may have mentioned this before, but a former Commander (and mentor) while on active duty had a PhD in Computer Science from Texas A&M, and he said PhD simply meant "piled higher and deeper".

Yeah, I use that term when I deal with one that is off the rails.  But like I said, the vast majority of PhD's I work with in the consulting world are pretty smart and great consultants.  Some are too academic and want to make every project a research dissertation.  Not what clients want.

I've worked with a number of PhD's over the years, and I've never known any of them to demand to be called "Dr.".  But the thing about Jill Biden - I'm willing to give her credit for her education, but to demand to be called Dr. outside of the educational community is inappropriate.

Pretty much my experience as well.  Only in an academic setting do PhD's want to be called doctor anything.  And while I do not recommend reading her dissertation, unless you need a good laugh, whatever institution of "higher learning" that accepted that pile of nonsensical garbage and granted her a PhD is no better than the certificates you can buy on the internet.  Like I said, a senior in high school senior would get a C- for that paper.

   In fact every really smart person I worked with wouldn't admit to knowing a damn thing. It was the really D A's who would run you down on the street and inform you of how "brilliant" they were!

Lot of truth to this. The smartest people I know are very self effacing and have an innate ability to make complex things simple.  The wannabes have a tendency to make simple things complex and assume you will be impressed.  I worked with a really smart geophysicist in the oil industry. He would show me his interpretation of seismic sections and I would marvel at how easy he made it look...unlike me that had to grind away for hours to figure it out.  And I hated to play Trivial Pursuit with him and his wife (who had a PhD by the way).  They'd know the answer to some obscure question and he would always say, everybody knows that.

I had 7 PhD engineers that worked for me.  The litmus test to me is if they can explain the very complex to someone that isn't an engineer and have them understand it.  When someone feels the need to brag about the PhD, I always think it's because they are surprised that they got it at all and are impressed by it; and want you to be impressed too.  Not in all cases, but sometimes I have noted that the most educated people aren't always in possession of common sense and that can lead to some dumb mistakes in their finances and in their personal lives.  

I used to have to review their Financial Discloure forms and was sometimes surprised by the level of debt they were carrying.
