According to a new CNN survey published on Thursday, approximately 60% of Americans disapprove of President Biden’s job performance. President Biden’s popularity rating has been steadily declining in recent months.
In a recent poll, 58% of Americans disapproved of Biden’s performance, just 41% expressing approval. A survey conducted in December indicated that 49 percent of Americans endorsed Biden while 51 percent disapproved of the vice president.
New polling shows that just 36% of independents and 9% of Republicans approve of Biden’s performance in his current position. However, although Democrats still approve of Biden, the number has dropped from 94 percent in July to 83 percent now.
When those who disapproved of Biden were asked to mention one item they liked during his term, 56 percent could not respond, demonstrating how difficult it may be to change the trend.
The poll is the latest in a long line of surveys showing Biden’s popularity is eroding.
