Biden’s approval dips to lowest of presidency, polls finds

President Joe Biden's approval rating dipped to the lowest point of his presidency in May, a new poll shows, with deepening pessimism emerging among members of his own Democratic Party.

Only 39% of U.S. adults approve of Biden's performance as president, according to the poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Research, dipping from already negative ratings a month earlier.

Overall, only about 2 in 10 adults say the U.S. is heading in the right direction or the economy is good, both down from about 3 in 10 a month earlier. Those drops were concentrated among Democrats, with just 33% within the president's party saying the country is headed in the right direction, down from 49% in April.

Of particular concern for Biden ahead of the midterm elections, his approval among Democrats stands at 73%, a substantial drop since earlier in his presidency. In AP-NORC polls conducted in 2021, Biden's approval rating among Democrats never dropped below 82%.

You can win a game without being good with the Hail Mary.

Isn't that where everybody is scrambling around, jumping up and down hoping a miracle happens? I don't think that is managing the game but rather a last resort.

I said he was a game manager, and that you can often win a game without having a good Hail Mary.

Hail Mary isn't game management, like you said.

My analogy was even the Dems kind of don't want him there to a certain extent, some of the younger voters.... but he may be our best choice for preserving Democracy.

Meh. I read in the paper today that SCOTUS is suffering from low ratings, too.

I don't think the US is headed in the right direction, but I don't think there's a thing any politician can do about it, on either side. The changes I'd like to see are in the hands of the common man/woman, but I'm not optimistic.

I wonder if he will run it 2024?

I suppose he doesn't have to, but then who will?

Just over half of Democrats say they want their party to nominate a different candidate than President Joe Biden in the 2024 presidential election, according to a new poll.
The poll, released by CNN on Sunday, asked registered Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents who they believe the party "should nominate as the party's candidate for president in 2024," giving them the options of Biden or a different candidate.
Forty-five percent of Democrats said the party should renominate Biden, while 51 percent said they preferred an alternative. Five percent said they had no opinion on the matter.
Of the Democrats who said they wanted a different candidate over Biden, 31 percent said it's because they don't want the president to be reelected, while 35 percent said it's because they don't think Biden could win against Republicans. Nineteen percent noted concerns about the president's age—Biden is 79 years old.

Sometimes you do everything right and still lose. That's life. The only thing to "lose" is his seat as president.
This is true but when bad, it is still bad. What he has to loose is, as you said, just his seat but we loose much more.

When a president does a poor job, the country loses, the people lose.

By "a president" I mean any president, regardless of party.

That's a very pessimistic outlook as I see it. The president does a **** job the country can rebound via the next president elected.

The only reason we are losing is because we have two political parties, leading to a binary all or none, with or against us thinking and mentality. We have no one on either side being willing to make that compromise happen.

This can be the president's job, but it is not his sole responsibility, that is the people's of the House and Senate, who need to learn to speak across the aisle instead of at it.

Edit: And all of these morons are a reflection of us, because we voted for their asses in the first place.

I think the "two party" problem as the issue is overused and underrated.

Yes, it is true that the country can "rebound" - but not always. It can also fall further after too. You just don't "rebound" from a 30 trillion dollar debt

Caveat - yes all presidents participated but this one is taking the cake.

It is estimated that in 2027 the interest alone will be 729 billion - you just don't "rebound" from that.

Yes, it is also the House and the Senate (regardless of party). Approval rate 20%.

Yes, we can spread the blame but, regardless, he is the lead person. He needs to take the reigns with his majority party (for two years). If something doesn't pass, it would't be the "other party" fault but rather no consensus in his party.

Of course we can rebound. However Next takes at least 4 years.

The president has very little power by design.

I didn't hear you say anything about the 30 trillion dollar debt during the last admin. It only gets *****ed about during the Dems run. Weird
