52% job approval with the most enthusiastic voters vs Biden with the most least enthusiastic..

Sounds about right..

They ran a wet rag against a shining star, and the wet rag won. Makes sense.

Wet rags can still be useful though. I'd say the shining star ran against a kleenex with a giant hole in the middle

Right? There are two possible explanations:

1.) Biden was so popular that he outperformed the most popular candidate in history (and we all lived through it - the 0bama phenomenon) by >10 million votes.

2.) Trump was so unpopular that people voted against him in droves.

Just 2 minutes of Biden talking (or the fact he couldn't pull 20k people to an online event!) will show you #1 isn't true. And every poll (which is always biased against Trump) you can look at, or the fact he regularly had >50k people turn out in person, will show you #2 isn't true.

#1 could be true if you accepted an explanation that all of those 0bama votes were actually people voting for Biden as VP, so when he became the actual candidate of course he outperformed himself as VP.

  1. isn’t true either because the enthusiasm gap probably made some people, even though they hate Trump, not vote at all because their candidate was the worst.

I mean blacks REALLY did not like Biden. For good reason

Agreed! I’m seeing irregularities that suggest these numbers are off at least 6% in Trumps favor.
