Biden’s approval rating was now 37% in favor and 60% disapproved, Kornacki noted.
It’s “the lowest approval rating since former President George W. Bush’s second term,” said Welker.
On voters’ confidence in handling the U.S. economy, Kornecki pointed to Trump’s 55% rating and Biden’s 33%.

With whom? Harris and Newsom both poll losing to Trump. Harris is less popular than Biden, and Newsom isn’t an incumbent. Biden is the candidate in 24 for the same reason he was in 20. He’s the best candidate to beat Trump.
The people “ringing the alarm” are out of touch socialists and anarchists, and more frequently, Republicans, foreign operatives, and grievancers who aren’t voting anyway.
I would have loved to see a Sanders presidency in my lifetime. Well, it didn’t happen. Fortunately, Joe Biden has proven a remarkably effective president under phenomenally difficult circumstances, and his bad numbers are less a product of his administration and more the result of record voter unhappiness and the stranglehold of Trump on US politics. That’s not a problem that’s solved by pushing a new candidate on stage, because any other Democrat is going to have the same baggage or worse, assuming they’re not outright unelectable.
Unfortunately, it looks like it’s too late now and we might get another Trump presidency. Great job Dems! Infuriating! Before you say “are you voting for Biden?” I’m in California and will not. My vote doesn’t matter here. I’ll still be voting for all the other local elections though.
You’re not voting?
Lol. Lmao, even.
You’re handing Trump a victory and oushing anti-Biden shit to get him elected and make dems elated. Good job doing that geriatric fuck’s dirty work.
You missed the critical bit. Voting for the least worst option when your vote cannot make a difference is worse than pointless.
And Biden will only win if enough people realise the alternative is possible. Thank the OP for their service and quit annoying people who might just hold their noses and vote where it counts.
Read it again. I’m voting for all the local and statewide elections. I refuse to vote for Biden based on he hasn’t earned my vote and doesn’t align with my beliefs, I don’t support his genocide in Gaza. That’s democracy. You are free to vote for whoever you want or don’t vote.
Absolutely correct. And we’re going to point out that your position is to support MORE genocide in Gaza via Trump. The person you are helping elect. You can support Trump electorally without voting for him. You are making a conscious effort to support Trump and all the awful horrible shit he brings along. That should be pointed out every single time this gets brought up.
If the goal is to help Gaza, wouldn’t the best course of action be to support the candidate that results in less harm? Or does less dead civilians not align with your beliefs? Is there a single shred of evidence that a Trump administration would result in any improvement whatsoever? Because there sure is a fuckload of evidence that it wouldn’t.
Neither do I, but I’m still not blind enough to throw my vote away and pout when a dicactor is incubating within our borders.
Better tell Joe to step it up then and earn more votes.
Good thing your lack of vote only encourages more genocide in both Gaza and in Ukraine with Trump
