Hi, I was browsing the RCP aggregate today and noticed that on July 20th Biden was sitting on 37.1% approval. If you look at the Trump RCP history it shows the lowest ever aggregate approval he had was 37.1% on December 16th 2017. The other big drop for Trump was in the days following Jan 6, when it reached a low of 39.3% on January 15th 2021. In other words, Biden has less approval now than Trump did after Jan 6th, and equalled with his lowest ever at any point in his Presidency. Thoughts?
Gallup Grim milestone: Biden has worst job approval at this stage of any modern elected president "Gallup has Biden sitting at 38 percent approval today, the worst number of his term in their polling and the first time he’s been below the political Mendoza line of 40 percent. Among independents it’s 31 percent, also a new low. And he now enjoys the distinction of having the highest “strong disapproval” rating among members of the other party of any recent president. The worst that the hyperpolarizing Trump ever did was 83 percent strong disapproval among Dems. The worst that Barack Obama ever did among Republicans was 75 percent. George W. Bush, who was despised by Democrats for the Iraq war, bottomed out at 81 percent strong disapproval. Biden, by comparison, is currently rocking an *87 percent* rating of strong disapproval among GOPers." He really sucks. "He has grinding inflation thanks to COVID relief, which is hungrily devouring the wages of lower- and middle-class voters everywhere. And that’s all that’ll matter this fall." I wish we had stronger Senate candidates than Walker and Oz.
