Assuming that Rasmussen has maintained a stable sampling methodology, I think what's going on here is that there's a fairly limited hardcore group of "true believers," who won't change their minds for anything. (Bet they all have 2 & 3 vaxxs too!) It's comforting to see a significantly larger group who are really hating on Ole Joe. The people who are in the center ("approve," "disapprove," and "don't know") are probably quite whishy-washy about things in the outside world and will change their minds fairly easily.
Right, there's about 25% who don't feel strongly either way, so I guess I'm expecting more of them to jump on "strongly disapprove" after the Taliban debacle but it doesn't look like ANY did.

Guess we'll have to wait for a different "precipice event" for the brain-fogged middle. Ten days of darkness with no cell phones might do the trick!
No cell phones / no internet = no polls! :)
