Biden's Approval Rating Hits New Low

Disapproval Rating Rises to 56.2%

Poll Shows Only 36% Approve of President's Performance

An updated calculation of President Joe Biden's approval rating has revealed a significant decline, with 56.2% of Americans disapproving of his job performance. The four-day poll, which closed on Monday, showed a drop in approval from 39% to just 36% since its previous release. This represents a significant shift in public opinion, as Biden's approval ratings have been hovering around the 40% mark since he took office. The decline in approval is particularly concerning, given that the poll was conducted at a time when the country is facing several major challenges, including high inflation, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, and the Russian invasion of Ukraine. The chart below shows the trend in Biden's approval and disapproval ratings since he took office.

The decline in Biden's approval ratings is likely due to a number of factors, including the perception that he has not handled the economy effectively, his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, and concerns about his age and mental fitness. The rising disapproval ratings are also a warning sign for the Democratic Party, which is facing midterm elections in November. If Biden's approval ratings continue to decline, it could make it more difficult for Democrats to hold onto their control of Congress.
