Well, it finally happened: After less than two years in office Joe Biden is now polling worse than his predecessor, President Donald Trump, did at his lowest point in four years of running the country.
According to the Rasmussen Reports’ daily Presidential Tracking Poll on Friday, just “37% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Biden’s job performance” while 61 percent disapprove. President Trump, over his four years in office, never dipped lower than 38 percent approval.
As Leah reported in early June, Biden was already “seething” that polls showed fewer Americans supported him compared to Trump, who Biden routinely refers to as “the worst president in history.” Some may have argued that Trump’s numbers were above Biden’s at the time since the current president has more to deal with and bears more blame for issues facing the country, but now that Biden has sunk below Trump’s low-point while in office, there’s little argument to make in support of the current president.
As Paul Bedard noted in his Washington Secrets dispatch on Friday, Rasmussen’s number is concerning for other reasons as well:
Maybe worse, just 65% of Democrats approve of Biden, another record low. It had been hovering in the low 70s.
The White House has tried to fix his steady polling decline with more travel and speeches by Biden and staff shake-ups, but nothing has worked. And now, some Democrats are distancing themselves from Biden as they seek to keep their jobs in the election.
The nation’s dissatisfaction with Biden appears to be affecting everything in his world, from the stalled economy and surging inflation to the 2022 midterm congressional elections.
Biden’s role as something of a millstone around his party’s collective neck about to jump into the deep end of the midterm elections means that fewer candidates want to appear with him before November. Just this week, as Biden traveled to Ohio to tout his agenda, the Democrat candidates running for U.S. Senate and governor refused to join the president and citing “scheduling conflicts.” That’s the same excuse Georgia Democrat candidate for governor Stacey Abrams used when Biden visited her state to talk about her cornerstone issue: voting rights.
If Biden continues to sink in the polls, expect more and more Democrats to distance themselves from his administration and its agenda, even if they quietly support his aims. And, as has already started happening, expect more Democrats to start asking about who’s going to run for President in 2024.
Those figures of 37% are doctored it actually is about 21% and that is probably way to high. biden is a Idiot do nothing S*** for brains Puppet for Xi Jinping and we have very little time left as a Free country with this Puppet stuttering around sniffing little girls and crapping his pants on the International scene. Time for biden to Go !
If I were to guess .Id say its more like 22%. I do knw some WACKOS that still believe in Biden. There minds have been smoked by Liberal parents who taught them (Whatever or whoever runs vote Democrat) Even if they run you country in the ground. I heard it and figured out VOTE for whoever is the Right choice whatever the Party. But here Lately there doesnt seem to be a Democratic Party. More Social Communist to Me. And that Regime he supports are nothing but Traitors .Civilian and Military.
The US Attorney in Delaware investigating the Biden Crime Family Syndicate has done the work for a Republican Congress to begin massive exposure of crimes. AG Garland a vicious partisan wants it shut down with civil fines, however Money Laundering, millions in Income Tax Evasion and other crimes are near impossible to sweep under the Rug. Stay Tuned it’s going to get interesting soon.
It appears he blew a head gasket a long time ago.
Trump was at 38% with almost constant negative media coverage. Many of Trump’s accomplishments were never even covered by the majority of media outlets. The media reiterated lie after lie about Trump. Contrast that with Biden. He is at 37% with favorable media coverage. Biden has literally earned his 37% approval.
