Benjy Sarlin, a “policy editor” at NBC News with a strong Twitter following (121,000), drew attention from the Republican tweeters on Friday for daring to say that Biden’s polling numbers are really bad at the moment:
Also just throwing out there, when Scott Brown won in frigging Massachusetts Obama's approval was dropping, but still around 50 in Gallup. Biden scraping low 40s is the kind of environment you start to expect bad things in general. https://t.co/EMIJqpqngA

He didn’t suggest he’s stuck in low polling numbers forever: “As of July, there were lots of happy headlines about bipartisan infrastructure, economy, and especially COVID decline. Since then, it’s sausage making, Delta and inflation fears, Afghanistan and border. It’s not really a deep mystery why Biden’s in trouble or how it could change.”
Obviously, the folks at NBC from Chuck Todd on down would like to help Biden “build back better” on his approval rating.
