It’s Poll Time again!
The latest national NBC News poll is out and it shows the vast majority of Americans do NOT like their President’s policy in the Israeli-Hamas conflict….
There are NO American troops in this and Biden STILL is getting a beat down…..
Images of the despair and destruction played daily in the media has had an effect on Americans , who barely remember the violence against the Israeli’s on Oct. 7….(Biden has persuaded the Israeli’s to halt the bombing for some hostage releases)
A conflict in the Ukraine that has dragged on for two years with sometimes weekly announcements of taxpayer money going there is NOT invisible….
Added to Biden’s troubles ARE an America economy that ‘experts’ may say is ok, but American’s do NOT agree due to inflated consumer prices….
Biden & Co. ARE well aware of these poll numbers….
Democrats have continually complained about them….
Joe Biden maybe pretty damn good in navigating American Foreign Affairs in the long run…
But right now?
He’s got a festering problem at home…
And the people back home decide if he keeps his job for a second term….
Remember ….
These are polls a year out from election day….
Just saying…..
President Joe Biden’s approval rating has declined to the lowest level of his presidency — 40% — as strong majorities of all voters disapprove of his handling of foreign policy and the Israel-Hamas war, according to the latest national NBC News poll.
What’s more, the poll finds Biden behind former President Donald Trump for the first time in a hypothetical general-election matchup, although the deficit is well within the poll’s margin of error for a contest that’s still more than 11 months away.
The erosion for Biden is most pronounced among Democrats, a majority of whom believe Israel has gone too far in its military action in Gaza, and among voters ages 18 to 34, with a whopping 70% of them disapproving of Biden’s handling of the war.
“I do not support his support of Israel,” said Meg Furey, 40, a Democrat from Austin, Texas.
“Failed promises, student loans, foreign policy in general,” said Democrat Zico Schell, 23, of San Diego, when asked why he disapproves of Biden’s job performance.
“Joe Biden is at a uniquely low point in his presidency, and a significant part of this, especially within the Biden coalition, is due to how Americans are viewing his foreign policy actions,” said Democratic pollster Jeff Horwitt of Hart Research Associates, who conducted this survey with Republican pollster Bill McInturff of Public Opinion Strategies.
McInturff said he can’t recall another time when foreign affairs not involving U.S. troops transformed the American political landscape.
“This poll is a stunner, and it’s stunning because of the impact the Israel-Hamas war is having on Biden,” he said.
But Horwitt cautioned that Biden can bring these disaffected Democrats and younger voters back into the fold. “These are people who have a proven track record in voting for Biden and Democrats,” he said.
And, he added, there’s plenty of time — and more potential political surprises to come — between now and Election Day 2024, which could see the political landscape transform again.
“Jury verdicts in Trump’s trials, unforeseen events both foreign and domestic, and the rigors of a campaign all have a funny way of upending what may be true today,” Horwitt said.
According to the poll, 40% of registered voters approve of Biden’s job performance, while 57% disapprove, representing Biden’s all-time low in approval (and all-time high in disapproval) in the poll since becoming president….

Does this mean Biden is not doing “ fine,
As you hilariously claimed here a couple of weeks ago?
jamesb says
I repeat ur view…..
This is another poll a year out from the election…..
President Biden IS within the MOE against Trump who is carrying a shitload of BAD Legal , civil and criminal baggage on his BIG ole back….
I and others, DO point out how he can actually start campaigning to keep his job….
jamesb says
And the President IS Busy….
Not in court, eh?
My Name Is Jack says
Cow manure.
We are not talking about a year from now .
We are talking about the present and
No one with the least bit of political acumen would review Biden polls ,his approval ratings and his standing as you yourself have posted above and conclude he was doing “ fine.”
That’s just dumb .
Another example of your idiotic “ analysis,” if one can call it that .
jamesb says
Ah?
I see ur up this afternoon!

Right now Republicans are trying to act like all was hunky dory in 2019 and that’s what Americans want back.
Biden needs to remind people that
1. Trump was not exactly popular in 2019 (Democrats won off year elections)
2. Trump didn’t leave office. He was Presidrnt in 2020. The year of Covid and unrest following police
brutality. He was Presidenr om one of the darkest days of pur nation Jan 6 2021.
3. Abortion Abortion Abortion. Republicans will institute a national ban if they are returned to power.
jamesb says
Indeed Scott!
Any problem with ur opinion being a post?

James, please post this revised comment. I cleaned up my fat fingered spelling and grammar mistakes.
Right now Republicans are trying to act like all was hunky dory in 2019 and that’s what Americans want back.
Biden needs to remind voters that:
1. Despite their revisionist history Trump was not exactly popular in 2019 (Democrats won off year elections that year)
2. Trump didn’t leave office in 2019. He was still President in 2020. The year of Covid and unrest following publicized instances of police
brutality and the murder of George Floyd. And he was still President on one of the darkest days of our nation’s history–Jan 6 2021.
3. Abortion Abortion Abortion. Republicans will institute a national ban if they are returned to power.

The bigger concern is this…Biden’s age is a given as a high negative for him…Inflation has come down but people are still really pissed about it and blame him for it though that is like 1st grade economic analysis for blaming the president for inflation when he is probably at most with his policies responsible for about 15-20% at the most (that may be overstating his policies influence on inflation)…If the economy does tank in 2024 and spiral into inflation with actual unemployment he will get crushed and his numbers now don’t help what could be in the future…Democrats only saving grace will hopefully be a President Trump campaign verse Biden cause wow do we want that mess again in the presidential office…
jamesb says
As Scott has pointed out…..
Abortion and selling himself….
I would add….
Biden & Co. need to work harder at reminding people of ALL the chaos and Bull Shit went went thru with the BIG GUY….
And?
Nobody in the media wants to point out Joe Biden beat the guy last time ALSO…..
