Why aren't Democrats offering serious alternatives to Donald Trump's agenda? From trade deficits to foreign policy, Victor Davis Hanson points out that many on the Left once held views that mirrored Trump's—yet now, they offer little more than resistance for resistance's sake on today's episode of “ Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “ I see these people in their late 60s and early 70s, mostly white people, and they seem to have the same signs, the same agenda, and they leave at the same time. … And you were doing that when you were 18, 19, and 20, and you haven't changed. You've learned nothing and forgotten nothing. “ And so, when they wonder why the Harvard/Harris Poll or other polls don't show Trump dropping … they look for alternatives. And they see nothing but street theater. Maybe they think that's going to win them the midterms.” 00:00 Introduction: The Democratic Party's Lack of Constructive Criticism 00:09 Performance Art and Street Theater 00:20 A Call for Constructive Alternatives 02:00 Revisiting Past Democratic Leaders' Stances 02:34 Economic Perspectives and Trade Deficits 04:43 The Need for Concrete Proposals Don't miss out on Victor's latest videos by subscribing to The Daily Signal today.

It's Wednesday, February 26th, A.D. 2025. This is The Worldview in 5 Minutes heard on 125 radio stations and at www.TheWorldview.com. I'm Adam McManus. (Adam@TheWorldview.com) By Jonathan Clark and Adam McManus Indian mob attacked 50 Christians A mob of nearly 200 people attacked a group of 50 Christians as they gathered for worship last week in India. The mob entered the church and assaulted the Christians with iron rods, leaving three severely injured and many more with bruises all over their bodies. The attack took place on February 16th in the northwestern state of Rajasthan, reports Christian Solidarity Worldwide. The state is now the latest one in India to pass an anti-conversion law. Such laws are often used to target Christians. India is ranked 11th on the Open Doors' World Watch List of nations where it is most dangerous to be a Christian. Illegal border crossings at a 15-year low In the United States, illegal immigration is down dramatically since President Donald Trump took office. U.S. Customs and Border Protection released the latest numbers last week. From January 21 through January 31, apprehensions at the southern border were down 85% compared to the same period last year. And on February 25th, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt made this announcement. LEAVITT: “This administration's efforts to seal the border continue to prove extraordinarily successful. In President Trump's first month back in office alone, illegal border crossings hit lows not seen in decades, down 94% over the past year, while interior arrests are up 134%. And this past Saturday, this is a significant statistic, there were only 220 illegal border crossings on Saturday. This is a 15-year low. Think about that in comparison to the amount of illegal border crossings we saw under the previous administration.” Leavitt highlighted the ripple effect that securing the border is having. LEAVITT: “Fox recently reported that a San Diego migrant shelter is closing its doors after saying they have not received new asylum-seeking families or individuals since January 20. We all know what happened on January 20, don't we? “And yesterday, New York City Mayor Eric Adams announced that the massive Roosevelt Hotel migrant shelter in Manhattan will shut down in the next few months. “We're also seeing a reverse migration effect. There are now verified reports from the Associated Press of migrants abandoning their journey to the United States and heading back home. This is the first time the Border Patrol has received these reports since 2020 during President Trump's first term. The returning migrants claimed in interviews that the new heavy security posture adopted by the Trump administration was a significant reason for their decision to return to the countries of their origin.” Leavitt documented the support of the American people for securing the border. LEAVITT: “81% of Americans support deporting illegal migrant criminals from our nation's interior. 76% of Americans support closing the border. This is from a Harvard Harris Poll, a very legitimate pollster.” Apple to invest $500 billion in U.S. over four years On Monday, Apple announced it will invest over $500 billion in the U.S. over the next four years. The tech giant plans to expand its facilities in America and create 20,000 jobs. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt elaborated. LEAVITT: “The investment isn't limited to one specific region of our country. Apple teams and facilities will expand all over our country: in Arizona, California, Iowa, Nevada, North Carolina, Michigan, Oregon, Texas and Washington. “With President Trump in charge, America is open for business. Apple CEO Tim Cook said it best in the company's announcement: ‘We are bullish on the future of American innovation.'” The announcement comes after President Trump announced 10% tariffs on all imports from China. Apple imports many of its products from the country currently. The new investment in the states includes a 250,000-square-foot server manufacturing facility in Houston, Texas. 3.4% students now homeschooled Last week, Pew Research released a study on homeschooling in the U.S. During the 2022-23 school year, 3.4% of K-12 students were homeschooled, up from 2.8% during 2018-19 school year. Eighty-three percent of homeschooling parents said they opted for homeschooling over concern about school environments. Seventy-five percent said they want to provide moral instruction. Seventy-two percent desired to emphasize family life together. And 53% wanted to provide religious instruction. Johnny Cash: From drug addict to Jesus follower And finally, today marks the birthday of Johnny Cash. The iconic American singer was born on February 26, 1932. He rose to fame in the music scene in the 1950s before coming to Christ later in the 1970s. He became known as the “Man in Black” for his all-black stage suits. In an interview on 60 Minutes, Cash revealed how much drugs and alcohol he would consume in the midst of his concerts before coming to Christ. CASH: “The amphetamines to get me up, the barbituates to bring me down. When I started drinking beer, along with the amphetamines, I'd drink about four or five a night, but I got up to 12-14,or a case a night. And I would take to the concert with me. I want to get just about that high off the ground before I'd go on stage. Sometimes, I'd misjudge how high I was, you know, and I'd get on stage and I was a wreck.” After his conversion, Cash would use his music to share the Gospel, often performing at Billy Graham Crusades. CASH: “I thank God for bringing me out of it and putting me back up on my feet and bringing me back to do the thing I love to do most of all, sing a Gospel song for you.” (applause) Cash remains one the best-selling music artists of all time. He was inducted into the Country Music, Rock and Roll, and Gospel Music Halls of Fame. One of his last recorded songs was called “I Came to Believe.” Listen to the chorus. CASH: “I came to believe in a Power much higher than I. I came to believe that I needed help to get by. In childlike faith, I gave in and gave Him a try. And I came to believe in a Power much higher than I.” Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.” Close And that's The Worldview on this Wednesday, February 26th, in the year of our Lord 2025.

The poll shows that Trump won over Harris by 2 points, driving the core issues of inflation and immigration most salient to the majority of Americans. Republicans closed in on the Democratic advantage of early and mail-in voting. Voters primarily relied on TV news channels for election coverage, followed by social media, and are split on whether coverage was biased. Looking ahead to the new administration, voters are divided on perceptions of Trump but want him to prioritize tackling inflation.“This was an election about issues, and the economy and immigration played the biggest roles. Trump won on a clear message of middle- and working-class economics,” saidMark Penn, Co-Director of the Harvard CAPS / Harris poll and Stagwell Chairman and CEO. “But while he's won over people up to 54% and Republicans are supportive of his policies, he has to be careful in over-projecting his mandate – underneath is still a division of the election that has not yet resolved itself.”Read the Full Results Interested in Learning More?Harvard Harris PollListen to More EpisodesTwitter

Super Tuesday wrapped up as predicted, with Trump sweeping the GOP win and Haley dropping out. Barring a meteorite, this means we are locked into a Trump-Biden rematch. But the newest Harvard-Harris CAPS poll reveals an America that is not as certain as primary voting behavior suggests – overwhelmingly, they profess a desire for a non-Biden non-Trump choice at the polls. For voters, immigration has become a national priority, even in states (Alaska) that are nowhere close to the southern border. Meanwhile, inflation, which affects everyone, has moved farther down in voters' anxieties. And then there's the large majority of voters who are comfortable marking on a poll that they believe Trump is a felon or that Biden is incompetent, but then vote for them anyway. This week, we try to get some clarity about these puzzling contradictions. Mark Penn is the chairman of the Harris Poll, as well as leading research companies including the National Research Group, Harris Insights & Analytics and HarrisX. He is the co-founder of the Harvard-Harris Poll, a monthly poll on key public opinion topics crucial to Americans like taxes and healthcare. He's also the president and managing partner of the Stagwell Group, a private equity fund.

EPISODE 207: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:44) SPECIAL COMMENT: If we do not harden our stances and fight now and convince our less adamantine cohorts to do the same, we are going to lose this democracy. “Should the Democrats hold fast (on the debt ceiling) and not negotiate, or should they negotiate spending constraints with the Republicans,” reads the question in the new Harvard Harris Poll. 82 percent of Republicans say the Democrats should negotiate with Republicans. AND 41 PERCENT OF DEMOCRATS SAY DEMOCRATS SHOULD NEGOTIATE WITH THE REPUBLICANS. Are you KIDDING? Are you INSANE? Are you SUICIDAL? NEGOTIATE. You do not negotiate with terrorists. You metaphorically shoot terrorists in the head. “I'm looking at the 14th Amendment. I think we have the authority. The question is, could it be done in time,” said the President from Hiroshima. “We have not come up with unilateral action that could succeed in a matter of two weeks or three weeks. That's the issue. So it's up to lawmakers.” With respect, Mr. President, it is NOT. Stop caving in to these fascists. They are NOT negotiating. They are NOT operating from any position of good faith or coherent philosophy except to try to destroy the economy and blame you and run against you on it and you have stated as much and you are still standing there with another metaphorical gun pointed against YOUR head hoping that you will find some middle road with the people who have spent the last 30 years dynamiting and jack-hammering all the middle roads. I mean this is so obvious even POLITICO noticed it. POLITICO. Official stenographers of the 17th Century. Its LEAD story summarized where the quote “negotiations” unquote are, how Democrats have already caved and Republicans have gotten more intransigent. And even AXIOS noticed how determined Trump is to be elected Dictator, and how he is openly campaigning on eliminating democracy. We need no more negotiations with Republicans. We need leaders who will fight and defeat them. COMIC RELIEF: The boss of CNN's Chris Licht got one of the great thrills of life: the opportunity to give the commencement address at his alma mater. And he was booed and interrupted throughout by Boston University students angry over his Hollywood Studio's stance in the Writers' Strike. Or maybe they weren't booing and were just chanting "Zaz." Back at the ranch, a Trump social post over the weekend confirms my reporting from last week: that CNN is at minimum discussing a 2nd Trump Town Hall. And Anderson Cooper's viewers have left the silo and his show has now settled into 4th Place behind NewsMax - because obviously CNN is tanking to get the first draft choice. B-Block (20:20) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: It is the greatest bad political soundbite of all time: greater than Herschel Walker's "erection," greater than Adlai Stevenson, greater than Sarah Palin's 117 entries. Also: never endorse somebody you can't be certain won't vote to overturn Roe v Wade later. And the Mississippi school forcing a trans girl to dress as a boy for graduation. (25:46) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: Texas book banning affects Texas's poet laureate, Marge Greene denies she's a white supremacist so that must be somebody else's Confederate Flag. And George W. Bush makes a comeback. C-Block (31:00) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: One By One Animal Advocates, a group which has saved about 30,000 animals in West Virginia in a decade, itself needs our rescue help (32:00) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: As we move towards the two-week mark of the CNN crisis, a look back at the worst management decision in TV history, so bad that after a week they told the poor guy he still had the title but he wasn't permitted to actually DO anything.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Highlights: ● “According to the new Harvard/Harris Poll, nearly 70% think that the Trump payment to Stormy Daniels was a personal expense. It was personal!” ● “In terms of public opinion, the backlash against this case is absolutely devastating for the Democrats. And it's no coincidence that the main beneficiary in all of this, of course, is one Donald J. Trump.” ● “So public opinion doesn't seem to be going in the direction that the DA and the Dems were hoping. And that appears to be one of the main reasons why this fledgling DA's office actually canceled the grand jury meeting that was supposed to hear one last witness.” Timestamps: [01:08] How the public is responding to Trump's impending indictment and why it's all Democrat's fault [02:51] How Trump's polls are soaring past both DeSantis and Biden [05:55] On another Democrat to call this indictment out for the sham that it is [08:13] The main reason Bragg is doing this and why in the end the Democrats will come out as losers Resources: ● Stop handing over your personal data to Big Tech!

Harris Poll Chairman Mark Penn and Bob Cusack, Editor in Chief of The Hill explore and decipher the findings of the December Harvard CAPS / Harris Poll, conducted from December 14-15, 2022, among 1,851 registered voters. Key takeaways:Nearly two-thirds of voters believe Twitter shadow-banned users and engaged in political censorship during the 2020 election. Seventy percent also want new national laws protecting users from corporate censorship.Joe Biden's approval rating remains steady at 42% as two-thirds of Americans think inflation is still increasing. Ron DeSantis continues his ascent as the poll shows him defeating Biden in a 2024 matchup for the first time.AMERICANS THINK INFLATION IS INCREASING AND WILL LINGER66% of voters think inflation is increasing, and 61% of voters think inflation will continue for at least another year.But Americans see economic troubles easing slightly: the percentage of voters who think the economy is heading in the right track and who are optimistic about their lives next year both increased by 3 points.Voters are split on whether Biden's policies caused inflation.IT'S NOW A TWO-WAY GOP RACE BETWEEN TRUMP AND DESANTISTrump is still the GOP frontrunner in an open field: 48% of GOP voters would choose him in a primary, compared to 25% for DeSantis.But in a GOP head-to-head, DeSantis defeats Trump by 4 points if GOP-leaning Independent voters are included; Trump wins the head-to-head by 10 points among only GOP voters.For the first time, the poll shows DeSantis defeating Biden in a 2024 matchup, by 4 points; Trump would also defeat Biden by 5 points.VOTERS BELIEVE TWITTER ENGAGED IN POLITICAL CENSORSHIP AND ARE ROOTING FOR ELON MUSKAmericans believe in the Twitter Files revelations: 64% think Twitter was secretly shadow banning users, and 64% also think Twitter engaged in political censorship during the 2020 election.Americans like Elon Musk: 61% think Musk is trying to clean up Twitter from abuses, and his personal favorability is 8 points above water.70% of voters, including strong majorities across the political spectrum, support new national laws protecting internet users from corporate censorship.AMERICANS THINK ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION IS A SERIOUS ISSUE BUT DON'T KNOW THE NUMBERSVoters are concerned about the effects of Biden's immigration policies: 67% think they have encouraged illegal immigration, and 57% think they are increasing the flow of drugs and crime.Americans are unfamiliar with the extent of illegal immigration: 64% correctly said the number of illegal border crossings has increased under Biden, but the median voter underestimated that number by a factor of 10 (250-500 thousand vs. 2-3 million).Two-thirds of Americans want Biden to issue stricter policies to reduce the flow of illegal immigrants, when told the actual number of illegal crossings in the last year (over 2.75 million).

Opening Monologues. DeSantis v. Trump 2024? Conversation on the next Presidential GOP Primary. Would Ron DeSantis actually take on Donald Trump? Megyn Kelly says it would be suicide for DeSantis, who would have absolutely ZERO chance against "unshakeable" MAGA voters. We review details and dynamics. Meanwhile, the Harvard-Harris Poll shows Donald Trump as the "most favored" political figure in America. Far more favored than Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, it so happens. The sheer badness of Biden as president could well be the best advertisement ever for Trump's 2024 prospects. We deliver a hard dose of political reality to the cultish "Never Trump" media bubble.

Harris Poll Chairman / Stagwell Chairman & CEO MARK PENN and The Hill's JULIA MANCHESTER discuss the latest Harvard-Harris Poll, conducted September 7-8 among 1,885 registered voters. VIDEO - KEY RESULTS - CROSSTABS - TOPLINE - LINKEDIN - FACEBOOK - INSTAGRAM - TWITTER PUZZLING - The midterms remain nearly a dead heat even though President Joe Biden's approval rating is still underwater at 41%. Inflation remains the biggest concern for voters, over half of whom say the Inflation Reduction Act is more likely to increase rather than decrease inflation. While student debt relief is having little net effect on Democrats' outlook, the overturn of Roe v. Wade is increasing likelihood to vote Democratic.Results also show the FBI's raid of Donald Trump's residence has not hurt the standing of the former president, whom voters would still pick in a presidential election over Joe Biden if the 2024 election were held today. Americans are evenly split on whether the raid was politically motivated, but a clear majority, 58%, think appointing a special master to review the documents taken by the Department of Justice is reasonable.DEMOCRATS HOLD THE DAM AS INFLATION REMAINS TOP CONCERN Biden's approval has ticked up slightly to 41% as voter sentiment on his administration's handling of inflation and unemployment improves.The generic Congressional ballot remains tight, 51-49 in favor of the Democrats.Inflation remains the biggest concern for both Democrats and Republicans, followed by abortion rights for Democrats and immigration for Republicans.BIDEN'S SPEECH ON MAGA REPUBLICANS IS UNPOPULAR AS AMERICANS WORRY ABOUT DIVIDING THE COUNTRYBiden's September 1 speech in Philadelphia, in which he called Trump and MAGA Republicans a threat to the country, is viewed as divisive: 56% of voters, including 62% of Independents, opposed it.Biden's approval has ticked up slightly to 41% as voter sentiment on his administration's handling of inflation and unemployment improve.More Americans are concerned about the socialist left rather than MAGA Republicans gaining power, 55-45.AMERICANS WANT TO INVESTIGATE THE HUNTER BIDEN LAPTOP STORY The Hunter Biden laptop story is not going away: 59% of Americans think the laptop story is genuine, not Russian disinformation. 63% of voters think the FBI helped suppress the story by telling tech companies it could be Russian disinformation.63% of voters think the DOJ should appoint a special prosecutor to investigate the Biden laptop.BIDEN'S STUDENT LOAN RELIEF DOES NOT AFFECT MANY AMERICANS OR MAKE THEM WANT TO VOTE DEMOCRATICAmericans are evenly split on Biden's cancellation of up to $20,000 of debt for couples making up to $250,000.Only 17% of Americans say they will be personally helped by the program.Voters are skeptical of Biden's method: 56% think it was wrong of Biden to act without Congress, and 52% think his executive order will ultimately be deemed unconstitutional.

I think this poll shows that all is not lost for the Democrats, despite a very difficult situation out there. A president with very low ratings, the congressional horse race still remains close, which means that Democrats should not give up the ship here and have some hope.Cusack: And that hope certainly would be in keeping the Senate. You know, the House is going to be difficult to retain based upon history and the president's numbers. Why do you think Democrats have had a little bit of a bump here, as you mentioned, and why do you think that the congressional generic polling is, is a dead heat with Biden's numbers still lowPenn: Well, Biden staying at 38% job approval and disapproval on virtually every major issue. But I think in some ways voters have come to separate Biden who they largely think is incompetent or not a good president from the democratic party and the democratic cause in general, as opposed to the Republicans. And so I think the Democrats have some things going for them, certainly choice in guns, helped rally. I think some of their supporters who otherwise really didn't have a big issue that they could fasten on because the election had been otherwise been dominated by inflation and immigration and crime, all Republican leaning, all Republican leading issues. So, and I think finally, you know, the Republican party is a divided party and Trump is knocking down half of the nominees. Some of the Trump nominees that were successful in the primaries are having, you know, a lot of trouble in the general election, particularly Oz in Pennsylvania. And they don't have an effective message machine out there right now. So, so that kind of tilts the page that maybe the, maybe tilts the odds just a little bit from what would otherwise have been a pretty dire situation.Cusack: And of course, Democrats can't get too over confident. The numbers on the economy are not good. There's an intensifying debate on whether we're in a recession or not. Technically we have not heard from this nonprofit group called the National Bureau of Economic Research, which decides that though we have had data of negative growth in consecutive quarters. What the economic numbers mean to you, Mark? And do you think this whole issue of a recession, does it matter? Because a lot of people think we're either in one or we're going to be in one?Penn: Well, most people think we're either in one or we're going to be in one, as you say, but we are definitely in a polling recession. If I were the national bureau of polling, would I declare an economic recession? Absolutely. Because we have 67% who say that the economy is on the wrong track and we have 56% of Americans saying their personal economic situation is worsening. These numbers reflect at least a polling recession. For sure. And I do think this debate about recession or not. I mean, you could Google it every single source and news thing until yesterday has always said that that two quarters of contracting grosses a recession. Recession's not a dep

Each month, presidential pollster, Harris Poll Chairman and Stagwell Global Chairman & CEO MARK PENN and BOB CUSACK, Editor in Chief of The Hill discuss the findings of the latest Harvard CAPS / Harris Poll. This month's survey of 1,966 registered voters was conducted between April 20 - April 21, 2022. (Link to the full poll is here). When asked how he'd sum up the mood of the country in just one word, Penn offered "FEAR". This was also the theme of Penn's April 25 Opinion essay in The New York Times: American Voters Haven't Been Afraid Like This in a Long Time ."In a rare convergence, America's voters are not merely unhappy with their political leadership, but awash in fears about economic security, border security, international security and even physical security. Without a U-turn by the Biden administration, this fear will generate a wave election like those in 1994 and 2010, setting off a chain reaction that could flip the House and the Senate to Republican control in November, and ultimately the presidency in 2024.Take the economy, so often the harbinger of election results. From late 2017 until the pandemic, a majority of Americans believed that the economy was strong, and from 2014 until the pandemic at least a plurality believed their personal economic situation was improving. Covid-19 cut sharply into that feeling of well-being; this was initially seen as temporary, though, and trillions of dollars flowed into keeping people afloat. But then near-double-digit inflation hit consumers for the first time in 40 years; 60 percent of voters now see the economy as weak and 48 percent say their financial situation is worsening, according to a Harris poll conducted April 20-21. Many Americans under 60 have relatively little experience with anything but comparatively low fuel costs, negligible interest rates and stable prices. Virtually overnight these assumptions have been shaken. Only 35 percent approve of President Biden's handling of inflation. FULL OP-ED
Each month, presidential pollster, Harris Poll Chairman and Stagwell Global Chairman & CEO MARK PENN and BOB CUSACK, Editor in Chief of The Hill discuss the findings of the latest Harvard CAPS / Harris poll. This month's survey of 1,990 registered voters was conducted between March 23-24, 2022. (Link to the full poll is here). Despite a slight uptick in optimism for the direction of the country and economy, Biden's approval rating remains at 39%. A little more than half of voters have doubts about his mental fitness and ability to handle difficult international situations, while 6 in 10 deem him too old for office. GOP support heading into the midterm election is now strong. In the Congressional horserace, Republicans edge out Democrats 53 to 47, winning two thirds of the Independent vote, and leading among suburbanites, men, women, middled-aged, and older voters. Inflation and soaring prices (32%), the economy and unemployment (27%), and immigration (21%) have taken as the top issues among voters, while concern over COVID is quickly falling in priority. Three out of four voters say they have been affected by inflation directly at the grocery line and the gas pump. 8 out of 10 voters expect inflation to stay high or get worse, and public opinion is split on whether the Fed should be toggling interest rates in this economic climate or whether that would result in worse outcomes. Blame for the uptick in oil prices is placed on Biden (64%) and Putin (72%). In this environment, two thirds of voters want Biden to relax climate change policies and loosen regulations on domestic drilling of oil and gas. Today, more than three fourths of voters support restarting the Keystone pipeline to alleviate costs. Voters resoundingly want more action taken by US & NATO leadership when it comes to Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Seven out of ten voters want more punishing economic sanctions; 76% want the U.S. and NATO to send missile defense systems; and 71% would send military aircraft to Ukraine. 57% support a no-fly zone despite the risks of directly engaging with Russia's military; however, voters are split on boots on the ground, with just less than half supporting this action. Today an overwhelming majority of American voters (86%) believe Russia's actions to be war crimes punishable by the international court of justice, with equal numbers believing Putin is directly responsible for these war crimes. Sanctioning Russia through private business interruption remains very popular, as an overwhelming majority (three-fourths) want American companies, big tech and even fast-food companies to suspend operations in the Kremlin. Public opinion on some of the other topics in the news offers interesting insights into the voice of American voters. 57% of voters support the confirmation of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the Supreme Court. A large majority of voters oppose sexuality being discussed at the elementary school level, and around two thirds of voters oppose transitioning athletes competing in opposite sex sports events.
Presidential Pollster, Harris Poll Chairman and Stagwell Chairman & CEO MARK PENN and BOB CUSACK, Editor-in-Chief of The Hill discuss NEW Harvard CAPS / Harris poll, fielded among 2,026 registered votes Feb. 23-24, just as Russia's incursion into Ukraine was beginning to take shape. The findings reflect a bleak mood among the American body politic, shaped by worsening economic expectations and a perceived lack of strength on Ukraine. (Link to the full poll is here).These timely findings, and much more covering the Supreme Court nominee, crime, and covid are available in the poll. As always feel free to reach out with questions and follow my podcast about the poll at www.MARKPENNPOLLS.com (full episode) or any of the following channels: @iHeartRadio, @ApplePodcasts, @Spotify, @Stitcher,@Google, @SoundCloud, @RadioPublic, @Tunein, @Castbox_fm, @Overcast, @Castro.President Biden's job approval is at its lowest point in our poll -- 38 percent. Only a third of voters say that Biden is doing a good job on the economy and stimulating jobs. Further, 54% say Biden say they are not confide Biden is able to handle difficult international issues like Ukraine. 64% say he is showing he is too old and 53% have doubts about his mental fitness for officePresident Biden is seen as being weak on Russia in the lead-up to the Ukraine invasion. Sixty-four percent see Biden as having been too lenient on Russia. Fifty-nine percent say Vladimir Putin sees weakness in Biden that is why he is moving on Ukraine (including 55% of independents). And 62 percent say Putin would not have moved against Ukraine if Trump was president (including 63% of independents).
Each month, Mark Penn, Harris Poll Chairman and Stagwell Chairman & CEO and Bob Cusack, Editor-in-Chief of The Hill, discuss the latest Harvard-Harris Poll.

For regular updates, follow @Mark_Penn_Polls on Twitter, @mark-penn-polls on LinkedIn, @MarkPennPolls on Facebook and @mark_penn_polls on Instagram.Bob Cusack:Mark, some interesting polling here, Harvard Harris, if you had to sum it up in one word, what would that word be?Mark Penn:Well, "divot" would be my word because I called on the president to pivot, and instead he dug a divot, meaning he just swung his club exactly the same place that he did before, expecting a different result. And he doubled down on a strategy that is failing, and his presidency grows weaker and weaker.Bob Cusack:Looking at some of the data here, I mean, 63% wrong track on the economy. That's pretty bad for the president. His COVID numbers, not as bad as some of these other issues like crime, which 64% believe is increasing in big cities. His head-to-head numbers with Trump, Trump at 53, Biden at 47, as far as who's a better president. And I think it's fascinating that independents, 55% say Trump better president than Biden, and Trump's suburban numbers are better than Biden's. And that's part of the reason that Joe Biden is president is because of the suburbs.Bob Cusack:And heading into the midterms, what were your kind of just takeaways of the biggest issues or problems this president has? I mean, this is wintertime for Democrats without a doubt. The summertime was much better. The winter has been really rough for the president.Mark Penn:Well, I think the president is facing personal questions, because 61% say that he is too old. And when I ask people what concerns them the most about the president, people say, "Whether or not he's competent." And so I think this presidency is stripped to the bone in terms of this basic question, can the president effectively serve the nation? And that's a problem. I mean, I've never quite seen that before, in the worst days of Clinton or Obama. Trump, of course there were a lot of questions about his mental fitness for office, but they actually never amounted to 61%. So I think that's a core question before you even get to what I'd say is the kind of foreign policy, domestic policy and legislative policy, right?Mark Penn:And so on a foreign policy point of view, Afghanistan was a disaster. It continues to get 30, 31% approval. And now we're heading into a potential Ukraine disaster. President said, "Well, maybe if they took a little, it would be not, who knows?" And that left a remarkable opening for Putin. I can't imagine, and I always hate saying this because other people do, I can't imagine if Trump had said that. I just can't imagine what the headlines would have been. If Trump had said, "Well, he could take a little bit of the Ukraine."
Each month, Harris Poll Chairman Mark Penn and Bob Cusack, Editor in Chief of The Hill, discuss findings from the latest Harvard-Harris Poll, a collaboration with the Center for American Political Studies.The latest poll was conducted November 27-28 among more than 2,000 registered voters nationwide.SUBSCRIBE to receive full polling report and data each month and follow Mark Penn Polls on social for regular updates: Twitter: @Mark_Penn_PollsLinkedIn: Mark-Penn-PollsFacebook: MarkPennPollsInstagram: @mark_penn_pollsMark Penn:Welcome to the podcast with Mark Penn and Bob Cusack, editor in chief of The Hill and we're going to discuss this month's Harvard CAPS Harris Poll that's just come out of the field with almost 2,000 interviews and I think it's going to be a provocative discussion as public opinion in the United States continues to harden, mostly against the administration. Particularly as the virus is seen as growing and the economy is seen as sinking.Bob Cusack:So Mark, if you had one word to really capture this month's polling, what would it be?Mark Penn:The word would be "cementing". The negative attitudes towards the administration are now being set as set as immigration, crime, core issues, now also next to that are the economy and the virus is going up, producing a negative mood and the gap in the leadership the people are looking for. These negative ratings that we saw during the summer that happened during Afghanistan have really cemented now and that's going to mean real problems for the democrats and this administration unless they act and act in a really big way.Bob Cusack:What was the most surprising thing? Because there's a lot of data here, there's presidential, there's virus data. What surprised you the most this month?Mark Penn:I was surprised most by the fact that the public mood is turning so sour in such a short period of time. This is almost a repeat of what happened with Obama but almost to a greater swing where there was so much promise, we have a democratic president, we're no longer governed by Trump, it's a new day, the economy is tooling along. All of those things looked so great in the spring and now the public is like my situation is getting worse, they see inflation, the economy is on the wrong track, they don't like the president, they're turning on the democratic party, a little bit on the republican. I mean it's just a sour mood out there. And as you know, when the public mood is sour, incumbents better watch out.Bob Cusack:That's right. I mean we're seeing a lot of democrats retire instead of seek re-election. That's always a telling sign that the party is not going to do that great going into the midterm. The virus is back as a top issue. And you really have to, sometimes, step back also. I know we do this every month, but we're still in the first year of the Biden presidency. And I know honeymoons don't last forever and Joe Biden's honeymoon is way over. But aren't these bad numbers? Again, they were good earlier this year and we talked about that. But for a first year president, these numbers are kind of troubling, aren't they?

You can always check for the full results at HarvardHarrisPoll.com. We'll be improving that website, if not this month, probably by the next. And you can listen to us have a pretty good discussion with Bob Cusack, Editor-in-Chief of The Hill.Bob Cusack (00:42):Thanks, Mark. As far as this polling, it's more bad news for The President. I mean, what do you think summarizes all this data that you have? What is the word that comes across or sentence, for The White House, looking at these really dismal numbers?Mark Penn (01:04):"SINKING" - The White House continues to sink, right? And they're sinking now. And in, because the economy is seen by the average voter, as deteriorating, is on the wrong track and inflation is coming in and higher gas prices. And ironically, even as people see the, uh, virus is receding, the administration is not getting any credit. What really is happening here is that in the past, when the virus seemed to be receding, there was sort of an economic euphoria, oh, this is great. We're going to get back. Now, the virus is receding, but people say, well, now I'm really worried about what's happening here in the economy, taxing spending inflation deficits. I mean, that leaves aside all the other issues, but I think that's the most troublesome thing right now for this administration.Bob Cusack (02:03):And that dynamic, I think is so important because as we've gone through this pandemic since March of 2020, we've done, you've done a lot of polls. We've talked about it a lot when it was really bad, obviously that hurt The President. A lot of people think that if COVID hadn't come along then Trump would be in a second term, or if he handled COVID just a bit better. He would still be President. Is this the first time you're seeing this fading as an issue, but, but the president not, not getting any credit? Because this summer, if I'm not mistaken, he was getting some credit.

The June Harvard CAPS / Harris Poll, conducted among 1,886 registered voters between June 17-18, 2020, provides perspective on a tumultuous few weeks of national protests, calls for police reforms, and uncertainty about the coronavirus and economic reopening.Our poll shows tremendous amount of support for both Black Lives Matter and peaceful protests as well as the police. Police in America are viewed favorably by 60% and Black Lives Matters by 55% of voters.Majorities of voters recognize police misconduct in cases like the death of George Floyd (56%) and the possibility of systemic racism in American police (53%) and call for reforms. Voters are split between the need major reforms and restructurings of how police work (47%) and minor reforms and improved training (46%) – but they agree some kind of action is needed, with overwhelming majorities supporting mandatory body cameras, banning choke holds and a registry of bad cops.Voters are also squarely against defunding the police (72%) and two-thirds of voters believe that most police operate fairly and according to the rules.And while over two thirds of voters thought peaceful protests were an appropriate response to police fatalities, on the issue of riots and looting 47% of voters believed cites were too soft in their response compared to 23% who indicated they were too harsh.In terms of the social response to the protest, voters remain balanced:57% oppose the New York Times decision to backtrack on the Tom Cotton editorial, and 6 in 10 voters believe major publications and tech platform censor conservative views69% of voters do not believe that news editors or CEOs should lose their jobs if they criticize Black Lives Matters, at the same time as 6 in 10 support corporations to donating millions of dollars to the BLM movement.77% say it was wrong for HBO to remove Gone with The Wind; 65% say it’s wrong for major networks to remove shows about police; 58% think confederate statues should remain and 71% want local governments to block groups from physically removing or damaging these statues.Despite majority support for utilizing the national guard, President Trump’s approval declined by 4 points for the second month in a row; he’s now at 43 percent. He receives low marks in the low 40s for his handling of the coronavirus (44%), issues of race and policing (43%), and responding to civil disorder (42%)Joe Biden did very well communicating he could bring the country together compared to President Trump which is reflected in candidate views in our poll and the 10 point spread we see among Likely Voters in the 2020 horserace (Trump 44% vs. Biden 56%).Finally, the coronavirus remains the biggest issue facing Americans today. Today, 61% think infections are growing faster (up from 49% in May), 64% think we are opening up too soon, and 74% think there will be a second wave in the fall.You can follow my podcast on the poll at SoundCloud (full episode) or any of the following channels: @iHeartRadio, @ApplePodcasts, @Spotify, @Stitcher,
For decades, Mark Penn has been one of America’s foremost experts on measuring and shaping public opinion. He is the founder of The Stagwell Group, a private equity fund, who previously held senior executive roles with Microsoft and WPP. He also led or served as a senior advisor on campaigns of President Bill Clinton, Hillary Clinton, and British Prime Minister Tony Blair. Today, he takes the pulse of America amid the historic COVID-19 pandemic. Mark Penn runs through recent polling on a number of questions related to the COVID-19 pandemic as well as questions related to the upcoming election. In discussing the latter, he notes President Trump had been slowly improving his job approval rating for 11 months. But that approval has started to dip amid the COVID-19 crisis and the aftermath of the tragic George Floyd killing. President Trump is seen as increasingly partisan and Joe Biden’s approval is on the rise.

And with that, let's launch in to this month's poll that was fielded September 22nd to September 24th 2019, with 2009 registered voters, making this an important and timely poll given everything that's going on today.So, what's happening with the job approval of President Trump, given all of the chaos and issues and the partisan fights that we're seeing over impeachment? Well, this poll was taken just before the formal inquiry really was announced, but during the buildup and already information out about the whistleblower. So given all that, would we be expected a significant change in President Trump's job approval? We might have, but that's not what we saw. What we've seen over the last couple of months, May, June, July, August, September, is a creeping back up of President Trump's approval, this month at 46% approve, 54% disapprove. I looked at a number of other polls out there, saw this similar trend that he was, until hit with a full-scale impeachment and the imbroglio over the whistleblower complaint, he was trending up. We'll see what happened next month, and whether or not he in fact drops to the bottom of the range, which we've seen before after incidents like this breakout.Specifically, let's take a look at some of his job approval on some of the most important areas of the Presidency. His highest approval is for stimulating jobs 55%, the economy 54%, fighting terrorism 52%, immigration 47, approval on foreign affairs 43, and administering the government 44. If you look at the trend data, he's actually doing a little bit better on administering the government, stayed about the same range on foreign affairs, stayed about the same range on immigration, fighting terrorism, a little off highs, which were as strong as 56%, and stimulating jobs, also down from the high of 62 to 55%. So, still a significant majority approving of the job that he's doing on the economy, but off the highs that we had when 3.2% growth was announced.
Jimmy Barrett and Shara Fryer take you through the stories that matter on the morning of 09/09/2019, including: The Wall Street Journal reports the Fed is ready to cut rates by a quarter point when it holds its meetings next week. They cut rates by a quarter of a point for the first time in more than a decade at its last meeting, but some traders and investors have signaled they would like a deeper reduction and more aggressive rate-cutting cycle. With trade uncertainty escalating, the central bank chief is weighing diverse opinions from inside his own institution. Lawmakers are preparing to return to a chaotic fall in Washington, paving the way for an end-of-year legislative sprint. In addition to hot-button issues like background checks, Congress has several must-pass bills on its agenda, including spending legislation to prevent a government shutdown on Oct 1. The to-do list leaves lawmakers little time to spare as they map out the legislative schedule for the roughly 40 days in which both chambers will be in session between now and the end of the calendar year. The latest Harvard/Harris Poll finds that 2020 presidential candidates who want to increase overall immigration to the U.S. — while the country already admits 1.5 million foreign nationals every year — are the least likely to win over American voters. Wanting more immigration to the U.S. was also the most unpopular position among Republican voters, conservatives, Trump supporters, voters who identify as “moderates,” white voters, American men, voters without a college degree, rural voters, and suburban voters. Even among Hispanic voters and black Americans, increasing immigration was the second most unpopular position a 2020 presidential candidate could take — just after increasing taxes to pay for social programs. Whether Congress will act this year to address the affordability of prescription drugs – a high priority among voters – remains uncertain. But states aren’t waiting. So far this year, 33 states have enacted a record 51 laws to address drug prices, affordability and access. That tops the previous record of 45 laws enacted in 28 states set just last year.

Thank you very much, and now let's launch in to this month's data.We're going to cover approval and mood of the country, road to 2020, Trump and Twitter, China and trade, growing racial tensions, election fraud, gun control, Russia investigation, discussion of Greenland, and we're going to do a particular deep dive on immigration. Let's launch into the trends that we're seeing on the approval and mood of the country. In general, we haven't seen a lot of changes over time on the overall approvals of the key political figures in this country. President Trump remained this month at 45% job approval, where he's been for the last, really, three months within a point, coming down from a bump when we had 3.2% growth in the economy at 48. But again, within a tight and narrow range, 55% disapproving of his job.But, if you look at it by what he's doing on the economy, 55% approval, down slightly from highs. Stimulating jobs, 55%, a majority but down slightly. Fighting terrorism, stable, 55. Immigration actually up a little at 47. Foreign affairs, 43. Administering the government, 44. Very little change on the pattern. The most interesting thing of course is the credit he gets on economy and terrorism. What about whether the country itself is on the right track or the wrong track? Despite the economic progress and satisfaction that the voters appear to have, they continue to say that the country itself is going in the wrong direction. 54% wrong direction, 37% right direction, down slightly, and 9% don't know. Is the economy on the right track or wrong track? Well, all of the recession talk that really occurred in the last couple of months brought down some of the most positive sentiment on the economy we've seen. 46% in this poll said wrong track, 43% said right track, after many months of people saying that the economy was more on the right track than the wrong track, going back to December when it previously dipped because of recession talk. So every time there's significant talk about a recession, the public is very sensitive to it, they pick up those cues and signals, and down goes satisfaction with the economy.If you look at how strong do you think the economy was, back in April that was at a record high 74%. That's lost eight points now down to 66%, 34% say that it's weak. So still two thirds say that it's strong, but you see the trend as there's more recession talk. Will this month's job figures, will the fact that unemployment stayed at 3.7%, will the fact that the stock market seems to be coming back reverse that this month? Remains to be seen, it remains high, but is weakening.
The monthly Harvard Harris Poll is where we talk about the American public, and using 2,000 interviews with registered voters, really analyze what they think about today's hot issues.In particular, not only are we going to cover the 2020 election, but we're also going to do deep dives into the economy, immigration, guns, and of course, growing concern about tech companies over the subject of antitrust.You won't to miss the in-depth topics that we cover in this month's Harvard Harris poll. And by the way, if you want to follow me on Twitter, for the polls, go to Mark_Penn_Polls.This month we interviewed 2,214 registered voters between July 31st and August 1st by The Harris Poll.We of course weighted the results by age, gender, region, race, ethnicity, martial status, you named it. And we keep parties ID similar from poll to poll, so we don't show a lot of the random variation that some of the other polls show. We think that's a much better technique.Let's dive into the data that came back this month. This is not going to be one of the most exciting months. A lot of this was taken, and in fact all of it was taken before the incidents occurred of violence and shooting both in Texas and Ohio. So we're going to see next month how those incidents really may have changed public opinion.

Jimmy Barrett and Shara Fryer take you through the stories that matter on the morning of 08/12/2019, including: The White House is circulating drafts of a proposed executive order that would address allegations of anti-conservative bias by social media companies, a month after President Donald Trump pledged to explore "all regulatory and legislative solutions" on the issue. The founder and CEO of ACCUWEATHER: No evidence heatwaves becoming more common because of 'climate change'...Dr. Joel Myers says, although average temperatures have been higher in recent years, there is no evidence so far that extreme heat waves are becoming more common because of climate change, especially when you consider how many heat waves occurred historically compared to recent history. He adds, “26 of the 50 states set their all-time high temperature records during the 1930s that still stand (some have since been tied)… So 37 of the 50 states have an all-time high temperature record not exceeded for more than 75 years. The overwhelming majority of American voters say they are more likely to support 2020 presidential candidates who oppose illegal immigration to the United States, a new poll finds. The latest Harvard/Harris Poll reveals that about 70 percent, or seven-in-ten, U.S. voters said they would be more likely to support a 2020 presidential candidate who stands for “strengthening our border to reduce illegal immigration” to the country. Voters across racial lines said they would be more likely to support a 2020 presidential candidate that wants to reduce illegal immigration. Roughly 63 percent of black Americans and 61 percent of Hispanic Americans said they would be more likely to support an anti-illegal immigration presidential candidate.
