These horrific outcomes are due to Democrats supporting failed policies, such as raising taxes, increasing regulations, growing the government, and refusing to prosecute violent criminals. Consequently, citizens voted with their feet and left in droves, a trend which has started to accelerate.

Not only is Biden losing to Trump in the poll, but he is also suffering from the worst approval rating of his presidency at only 37%.
