The drop in his polling numbers was to be expected….
The question’s are?
How how far down for how long?
As this dog has felt….
Most agree the US should be leaving Afghanistan…
But the chaotic way of the departure gets the President bad grades….
President Joe Biden’s approval rating dropped by 7 percentage points and hit its lowest level so far as the U.S.-backed Afghan government collapsed over the weekend in an upheaval that sent thousands of civilians and Afghan military allies fleeing for their safety, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll.
The national opinion poll, conducted on Monday, found that 46% of American adults approved of Biden’s performance in office, the lowest recorded in weekly polls that started when Biden took office in January.
It is also down from the 53% who felt the same way in a similar Reuters/Ipsos poll that ran on Friday.
Biden’s popularity dropped as the Taliban entered the capital, Kabul, wiping away two decades of U.S. military presence that cost nearly 1 trillion taxpayer dollars and thousands of American lives.

Technical note to James:
You repeated the same text (beginning with “President Joe Biden’s approval ratings”, i.e. you printed the same text twice.
