Biden Slams Trump After Poll Shows Americans Prefer Obama
\nPresident Joe Biden has delivered a fiery rebuke of Donald Trump after a new poll revealed Americans favor Barack Obama over the former president.<\/p>\n
Poll Results Show Clear Preference
\nA Marquette University survey, conducted between September 5 and 24 among 1,005 adults nationwide, revealed striking contrasts in public opinion.<\/p>\n
According to the poll, 42% of Americans view Trump favorably, while 57% hold an unfavorable opinion, leaving him with a net rating of -15 points.
\nIn comparison, 57% view Obama favorably and 40% unfavorably, giving the 44th president a +17 favorability rating.<\/p>\n
Biden\u2019s Sharp Words
\nResponding to the poll, Biden didn\u2019t hold back. Speaking at a Nebraska Democratic Party gala in Omaha, he accused Trump of \u201ctaking a wrecking ball\u201d to democracy.<\/p>\n
\u201cI knew Trump was going to take a wrecking ball to the country,\u201d Biden said. \u201cBut I didn\u2019t know there would be an actual wrecking ball. It\u2019s the perfect symbol of his presidency.\u201d<\/p>\n
He continued, \u201cTrump has taken a wrecking ball not only to the people\u2019s house but to the Constitution, the rule of law, and our democracy itself.\u201d<\/p>\n
Criticism of Trump\u2019s Leadership
\nBiden also mocked Trump\u2019s claim that the nation is in a \u201cgolden age.\u201d
\n\u201cThe only gold is the stuff he\u2019s hanging on the mantle,\u201d Biden said. \u201cYou work for us, Mr. President \u2014 not just for billionaires and millionaires. I\u2019m angry.\u201d<\/p>\n
Biden\u2019s Health Battle
\nBiden\u2019s remarks came months after revealing his battle with prostate cancer. Back in May, his office confirmed that he had been diagnosed with an \u201caggressive\u201d form of the disease, characterized by a Gleason score of 9 and metastasis to the bone.<\/p>\n
After completing radiation therapy, Biden thanked medical staff for their care.
\n\u201cI thank God for the doctors, nurses, and the breakthroughs we\u2019re seeing in cancer research,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Call for Healthcare Support
\nBiden used his recovery to highlight healthcare policy differences.
\n\u201cNow Trump and his Republican friends are cutting government funding for healthcare and making it more expensive for virtually everyone,\u201d he warned.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
