      What does Bush Jr have to do with this? More seriously, Are you going to publish this somewhere?

        So Bush Jr. had the lowest approval rating for a president that won a second term. He ended his second term with one of the lowest approval rating of any president of all time (just a short and curly ahead of Nixon).

        Some detail:

        Including George W. Bush

        Approval Shifts:
            Mean Shift: 1.91%
            Standard Deviation: 10.53%
        Winning Candidates' Approval Ratings:
            Mean Approval Rating: 50.73%
            Standard Deviation: 11.14%
        

        Excluding George W. Bush

        Approval Shifts:
            Mean Shift: 3.60%
            Standard Deviation: 9.40%
        Winning Candidates' Approval Ratings:
            Mean Approval Rating: 56.35%
            Standard Deviation: 4.31%
        

        Notice how the standard deviation associated with the winning candidate tightens up significantly with out Bush?

        I do publish the results of these analyses, here, on lemmy. However, I just have a day job that has prevented me from doing “the rest” of this analysis. This is only one part of a larger analysis I have planned.

        Here are the two distributions:

      ROFL. Someone known to be VERY biased and anti-democracy, did an analysis….

      The results were shocking- SHOCKING I tell you!

      Similarly, I did research on socialism. Yeah. I know. Ironic, right? We’re both researching things at the same time? Anyway… The results say it won’t work in America. So…

      There’s that. You can stop now.

              Now I’m a child? You seriously can’t speak with civility, can you? I’d suggest you take this seriously. People’s rights are at stake. And if you think what’s happening in Palestine is bad now….

              Be prepared for Super Doppler Gyro Genocide 3000 v 2.0.

              Because this is where we are. Vote or don’t vote. The genocide continues. You can get it with an extra helping of “fuck the LGBTQ*” and “Goodbye reproductive rights,” or you can help those that are positioned to lose their rights as human fucking beings.

              This isn’t a joke.
