LETTER: Independents for Biden?

I saw in the Review-Journal that polls have President Joe Biden’s rating among independents at 64 percent disapprove and 26 percent approve. While the disapproval rating makes sense due to Mr. Biden’s monumental failures across all levels of his influence, I marvel that 26 percent of independents believe he is doing a great job.

I can understand where a strong Democratic ideologue can work overtime to excuse Mr. Biden’s failures. But I struggle to understand how a true independent can do the same. In my mind an independent sees only the obvious and is unswayed by ideological persuasion.

It seems unfathomable that any true independent can approve of Mr. Biden’s performance. I think those who make up the 26 percent should either declare themselves Democrats — as they appear to be — or do the grocery shopping themselves for once.
