You know your presidency is a catastrophic blunder once the ultra-liberal CNN fails to rally behind your policy decisions.
A majority of Americans disapprove of Joe Biden’s job performance, as most also deem his first year a “failure,” a CNN poll released Thursday revealed.
Currently, 41% of Americans “strongly” disapprove of Biden, compared to 15% who “strongly” approve.
Further, Biden’s approval among independents is underwater, as 64% disapprove, compared to 36 % who approve. As likely predicted, Biden’s disapproval is staggeringly high among Republicans: 91 % disapprove. While Biden enjoys an 83% approval from Democrats, that still represents an 11-point drop from the 94% of Democrats who approved last summer.
According to CNN, “Some of the shift in Biden’s numbers comes from a change in Americans’ partisan tilt: Republicans and Democrats were about at parity in the new poll, with fewer identifying as Democrats than in other recent CNN polling.”
According to the outlet:
When those who disapproved of Biden’s overall performance were asked to name a single thing he’d done that they did approved of, 56% had nothing positive to say. “I’m hard pressed to think of a single thing he has done that benefits the country,” wrote one survey respondent.
Of those who generally approved of Biden, a smaller 26% couldn’t find anything negative to say. “I totally believe that he has the best interests of the American [p]eople in mind,” wrote another respondent. “I think he understands the severity and importance of his job and is doing the best he can.”
The survey also asked respondents to rate Biden’s first year in office as a success or failure. A majority, 57%, said it has been a “failure,” compared to 41% who deem it a “success.”
The public’s disapproval of Biden’s handling of the economy is contributing to these souring figures, as 62% disapprove, compared to 37% who approve. That reflects a drastic change, as a majority approved of his handling of the economy in September.
The survey coincides with devastating news for Biden from the Department of Labor, which found that consumer prices have “jumped by the most” in nearly 40 years, up 7.5%.
The poll, with 1,527 respondents, has a margin of error of +/- 3.3 percent.
Now that liberals have abandoned Joe Biden, it’s up to Republican officials to convince them to join the side of Good. Mitch McConnell and the RINOs are not cut out of that job, obviously…
