“Record approval ratings for Biden were released today. The approval follows Biden’s record performance in the election with the suburbs and among traditional Republican voters. So just what is driving this massive support for Biden? We talked with a couple of lifelong suburban Republican voters in Pennsylvania to find out.”

First one was a suburban retired mom:

“He’s doing just what he needs to be doing which is clearing up the pandemic and getting the economy going again. And he’s such a quiet professional. After the last four years, which were so traumatizing, and I hate to use that word and I don’t use that word lightly, but that’s exactly what the Trump presidency was: traumatizing. While I’m much more moderate, I feel at home in today’s Democrat Party because it’s so inclusive. And I love his infrastructure plan! If you drive through Pennsylvania, you know we have a lot of potholes that need to be fixed!”


Second was a suburban dad & banker:

“He clearly wants to work with Republicans and Republicans need to work with him in good faith. He’s such a moderate person. When I see what Republicans are doing now, changing voting laws and preventing people from voting, I think that’s just evil and clear evidence that Republicans want to cheat so they can win and get power.”


Your tax dollars at work ladies and gentlemen.

I'm calling bullshite on those two so called "Republicans". Probably two NPR employees reading prepared scripts and play acting as Republicans who voted for Biden.

100% chance that "suburban retired mom" and "suburban dad and banker" are staff members at NPR.

These are not real people. This is not a real interview. These are cosplayers, and the entire purpose of this stunt is simply to gaslight conservatives.

The projection of accusing the Republicans of trying to cheat to steal election is unfavorable. Whereas Republicans are trying to fortify elections by legal means, the Democrats did exactly the opposite. They stole an election illegally without due process or constitutional means.

Funny how the media isn't running stories about how the GOP is favored to win the House in 2022.

Instead, they run stories trying to gaslight us into thinking Biden is popular and he's the new FDR.

Yep. I’m reading tons of FDR comparisons. It’s clearly in the talking points memo.

Oddly, never a comparison to LBJ. I don’t know why.

Either life-long Democrats, members of Biden’s Cabinet or family, or not real people. No Republican, Libertarian, or moderate thinks he’s doing a great job.
