That’s exactly what it is. Their post history is full of almost nothing but this type of nonsense.
I could guess who the poster was based on the headline alone
As predictable as ever, the propaganda train rolls on down the line.
What a crock of shit
While I'm willing to concede that Biden is unpopular now due to recent events, the claim thst he's the least popular president in 75 years is laughably false.
Newsweek seems to conveniently forget about Trump, who's currently has 90+ pending criminal charges.
Trump had higher approval numbers than Biden currently does with Democrats
Looking solely at approval rating (% of people saying 'I approve!').
If you look at DISAPPROVAL rating (% of people saying 'I disapprove') he comes across MARGINALLY better.

Truman - 56%
Nixon - 66%
Carter - 55%
W. Bush - 61%
Trump - 62%
Biden? 62%

I seriously don’t know why you allow this blatantly bullshit type of hit piece here.
It is a valid question. I think ozmas antics among others have worn out a lot of generosity and goodwill on many peoples parts. I had a good laugh when Ozma themselves responded elsewhere that they post propaganda to spark debate. Honestly the main debate I'd seen on many of their posts was if they were genuine. But just an easily manipulable tool. Or if they genuinely had malicious desire such a accelerationism trying to get as many people as possible hurt. Though there's always the third option. Kind of like Shapiro and aoc. I'm not 100% sure that ozma doesn't just have the hots for Biden.
I'm not 100% sure that ozma doesn't just have the hots for Biden.
Best take. They want Biden's feet.

To be fair, the only people that respond to poll calls are the retirees with land lines that mainstream Faux News all day, everyday. I can say I have recieved a few calls that my caller ID says are political calls and I don't answer
Pollsters use a variety of methods, and do sampling bias correction.

to be fair
Only a small portion of polling results now come from land lines. All the methodology used in the polls is included with poll results.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Biden is set to face off against Donald Trump in November in a rematch of their 2020 race, as both candidates appear to have secured enough delegates to win his party's nomination.
But with the election just six months away, Biden is seeing a record-low approval rating amid criticism over his handling of issues such as the Israel-Hamas war and immigration.
On Day 1,202 of his presidency, only 38.6 percent of Americans are giving Biden positive marks, according to FiveThirtyEight's aggregation.
Biden's handling of the economy is particularly hurting his approval rating, according to a recent survey from the Harvard Center for American Political Studies and the Harris polling company.
Biden has tried to make the case that his handling of the economy successfully helped the U.S. recover from the pandemic, but Americans continue to face high prices and interest rates as well as concerns about housing affordability.
The poll surveyed 1,961 registered voters from April 24 to 5 and had a margin of error of plus or minus 2 percentage points.
The original article contains 587 words, the summary contains 172 words. Saved 71%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Blah blah blah..oh Newsweek, oh Nate Silver-Hillary-is-gonna-win-90%-chance
