Just 33% of Americans approve of Biden’s job performance compared to 54% who disapprove
President Biden’s approval rating has reached the lowest level of his presidency, with a new poll showing only a third of Americans approve of his job performance.
Just 33% of Americans approve of Biden’s job performance compared to 54% who disapprove, according to the results of a Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday. That mark ties the lowest approval Biden has received in the poll during his precedency, matching the number set in January when the president faced a 33-53 approval deficit.
Biden’s approval numbers are slightly among registered voters, with 35% saying they approve of the president’s job performance compared to 55% who disapprove.
Broken down by party affiliation, 76% of Democrats indicated they approve of the president compared to 12% who disapprove. Republicans are overwhelmingly negative about Biden’s performance, with 94% indicating they do not approve of the president’s job performance compared to 3% who approve. Independents also indicated disapproval of Biden’s performance, with 56% saying they disapprove compared to 26% who like how Biden is doing.
Americans have also graded Biden’s handling of the war in Ukraine poorly, with only 39% saying they approve of how the president has handled the crisis. A majority of Americans believe the U.S. should be doing more to stop the killing in Ukraine, with 52% saying the administration should increase its effort to assist Ukraine in its fight against Russia.
