In a recent poll released by ABC News-Ipsos, President Joe Biden’s approval rating has dropped to a dismal 33%, causing anxiety among Democrats and prompting murmurs of discontent throughout the nation. The disapproval rating for President Biden stands at a staggering 58%, showcasing widespread dissatisfaction with his leadership. This marks a significant decline for the commander in chief as he gears up for a tough reelection battle in less than 10 months.
Notably, Biden’s approval rating now lags behind that of former President Donald Trump’s worst figures, signaling a major blow to the current administration. The poll reveals that Trump, despite facing his own challenges, managed to maintain a 36% approval rating at his lowest point. This serves as a stark contrast to the plummeting support for President Biden, indicating a lack of confidence in his policies and decisions.

Furthermore, the pollster highlights that Biden’s current approval rating is the lowest he has experienced during his tenure, casting doubt on his ability to rally public support. This dismal performance also harkens back to the unpopular ratings endured by former President George W. Bush in 2006-2008, underscoring the severity of the situation for the Biden administration.
Not stopping there, Biden’s struggles seem to have deepened over time, with his approval rating sinking below 52%, which was recorded in April 2021. This decline demonstrates a consistent downward trend in public favor, painting a grim picture for the president as he grapples with mounting challenges on various fronts.
In contrast, former President Trump has managed to maintain an approval rating of 41%, despite facing widespread criticism and opposition. This leaves many Americans wondering whether the current administration under President Biden can effectively tackle the issues that continue to plague the nation.
Despite attempts to downplay the negative polling data, it is clear that President Biden is facing an uphill battle as he strives to regain the trust and support of the American people. With the upcoming election on the horizon, these troubling numbers serve as a stark reminder of the daunting task that lies ahead for the Biden campaign and the Democratic Party as a whole.
