Biden disapproval in the gas tank

 Red States:

Joe Biden is just getting killed in the approval numbers, when it comes to what Americans think of him.

As we’ve seen, Biden is throwing a tantrum over the fact that his numbers are now lower than those of President Donald Trump–when it’s Trump who is constantly attacked by the media.

A lot of that low rating is tied to inflation, and we’ve seen how horrible the Biden team’s response has been on that. They have no competent response.

But when you’ve lost CNN, you know you’re in trouble if you’re a Democrat.

One of the few people who doesn’t seem afraid to lay out all the bad facts over there is Harry Enten, their senior data guy. What was surprising was Jake Tapper seemed to be asking the right questions of Enten. Together, they produced a devastating takedown of Joe Biden — what Americans think of him when it comes to gas prices and inflation — and what that means for the midterms.

Enten noted the percentage that gas prices up from the prior year in prior midterms. He noted that it was 53 percent over last year — the highest in any midterm cycle since 1994. Then he dropped the hammer, showing the result of what that meant in the elections for the next two highest numbers in 2006 and 2010, where there were major gains for the opposition party.

Enten then explained Biden’s job approval on gas prices is 31 percent, with 68 percent disapproval.

“On inflation, it’s 28 percent; with 68 percent disapproving. That is a very, very, very, very, very bad number,” Enten explained, when Americans say that the most urgent issue to them is inflation, at 33 percent–far and away outpacing abortion. So, if Democrats thought that pro-abortion anger was going to win it for them, they might need think again.

...

There is more and it is just as bad. Biden's inflation numbers are down there with his gas price disapproval.

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
