ILLEGITIMATE: Majority Say Biden HAS LOST Consent of the Governed.
Nearly 60 percent of American voters say the Biden government lacks the consent of the governed, a key provision in the Declaration of Independence. A new poll conducted by Rasmussen Reports indicates that 57 percent of respondents believe the federal government lacks legitimacy in governing Americans.
The belief that the federal government lacks the consent of the governed was held by a majority of both men and women, with 60 and 53 percent saying they agreed with the sentiment, respectively. Skepticism of the federal government’s authority was strongest among middle-aged and older voters, with 61 percent of those over 40 saying the government lacks consent. Additionally, 63 percent of Hispanics and 58 percent of White voters say the federal government lacks the consent of the governed.
Meanwhile, a plurality of respondents said they agreed with the statement, “The republic the Founders created has already fallen.” According to Rasmussen, 47 percent of voters agreed with the sentiment. Surprisingly, this number was driven primarily by female respondents, with 53 percent of women saying the republic has already fallen, while just 43 percent of men said the same.
Even more surprising is that only 46 percent of White voters said the republic has already fallen, whereas 48 percent of Black voters said the same. Again, Hispanics expressed the most skepticism towards the state of the Biden government, with 50 percent saying they believe the republic has fallen.
The disillusionment with the Biden government among minority voters has become a serious issue for the 81-year-old Democrat‘s re-election campaign. Biden’s inability to bring inflation and prices under control has compounded anger among Black and Hispanic voters who were already turning against Democrats over their refusal to address the ongoing illegal immigration crisis at the southern border.
