President Joe Biden’s approval rating is near its lowest point, according to a new poll.
The survey, conducted by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research, found that only 38% of Americans approve of Biden’s administration. His approval rating reached an all-time low of 36% last July.
In January and February, similar polls measured Biden’s approval rating as 41% and 45%, respectively.
When broken down by party affiliation, the poll found that 96% of Republicans disapprove of the Biden administration, while 23% of Democrats disapprove.
“Everyday Joe Biden and his handlers confirm they are the worst administration in modern history,” Roger Shafer, senior advisor for the Dallas Young Republicans, told The Dallas Express. “They don’t have a single policy that represents the majority of Americans.”
During individual interviews, poll respondents conveyed mixed feelings about the current administration, but people from both sides of the political aisle expressed disappointment in Biden’s handling of the economy.
Michigan Republican Michael McComas described the president as “not great” and “average,” adding that he thinks the ongoing inflation is a consequence of excessive government spending.
“We poured so much money into the system,” said McComas, per The Associated Press. “That’s a little frustrating that we were shocked that we got hit by inflation when a lot of our policies were inflationary.”
However, it is not only Republicans who take issue with the way Biden has managed the country.
Theresa Ojuro, a 29-year-old doctoral student who voted for Biden in 2020, said she “expected more” from the president.
“Just a little bit more stability with the economy,” the New York resident specified, as reported by AP News. “If Biden is doing his job, why in a state like this can you see people really suffering?”
Some Americans still maintain a relatively positive perspective on the president. Self-identified liberal Andrew Dwyer, a Milwaukee data analyst who also voted for Biden in 2020, said his view of Biden is “neutral towards approve.”
Dwyer, 30, said he thinks the recent economic turbulence is a result of the economy adjusting to the higher interest rates instituted to counter inflation.
“We all got so used to cheap debt and the ability to throw money around,” he explained, per AP News.
Dwyer said he thinks this will “ultimately” improve the economy but acknowledged that greater borrowing costs have caused “pain points” throughout the economy.
If I could place a wager…
I bet the that Biden 36% approval rating will drop by the third or fouth quarter of 2023 as the economy starts to tank in a major way.
The M2 money supply has contracted at an accelerated rate. There is always, always a lag before the effects ripple through the economy.
You know, I used to think that Vanna White had absolutely the most knocked-up job. I mean, she said herself the only reason she got the job is because she was the only applicant that turned all the letters correctly. And she has made millions doing something so astoundingly simple. (They really don’t even need her anymore…technology). But Biden has her beat, hands down. We now have a mentally challenged moron at the head of the country, whom I seriously doubt could handle Vanna’s job.
Boo Hoo, for all you Biden haters. Nearly 80 million voters gave Biden his current job. You interview 1000 people and you claim to know what all people are feeling. No one likes inflation. Everyone likes higher wages and low unemployment. When was the last time any president had more than a 50% approval rating? The U.S. never likes the guy in the Whitehouse, yet U.S. residents enjoy a high standard of living and safety. Biden is not trying to take personal feedoms away from anyone and that is something no Republican can claim.
Republicans will ALWAYS find SOMETHING to complain about ANY Democratic President to disguise the fact they could do no better. The short term failures are always overshadowed by the hard choices that must made for long term success. Wasn’t it Teddy Roosevelt who said the credit belongs not to the Critic, but the man who is actually in the Arena? Republicans want all the credit for success, and blame someone else for the failures. Typical.
How bout watching “2000 Mules” and that 80M shrinks quite significantly, but I’ll bet you won’t, in fact, I know you won’t! And why that hasn’t been challenged in court is unbelievable! Repubs are taking away freedoms???? Name one. How dare you say that! The most important freedom ever has been threatened by the left since records began. Tell me also, why is inflation at a 30 yr high??? Sure ain’t repubs fault, all on current WH policies. And your low unemployment claim is bogus bc it went down due to everyone slowly going back to work after covid! And one last failure of the bozo in charge is the out of control borders! He ain’t even got the balls to visit the affected areas, have to rely on previous prez to do that. Before Biden took over, everything was looking good and under control. Cartels and human trafficking are now having a field day!!
Biden is easily worst prez ever and that makes Jimmy Carter smile!
