Rasmussen Reports are liars. Shame on 538 lending them any credibility.

(9,101 posts)Biden's going great - we know it - we feel it. Rasmussen's 49% disapproval is preposterous.

(5,441 posts)everything Joe Biden and Democrats are doing 24/7. It has its effect-- probably this poll is just an outlier, right now. But slander, lies and negativism work over time to bring down poll numbers.
