A new poll by Emerson College reveals that President Biden's approval rating has sunk to a near-record low of 37%, with 52% disapproving of his performance. This marks a significant decline from his initial approval rating of 49% in 2021. The poll attributes the low approval to voter concerns about the state of the economy, with a majority believing Biden has worsened it.
, that the nation considers the 46th president among the worst ever, one of the last to grade Biden just put his approval rating at a near low.said on Tuesday morning that just 37% approve of Biden , a slight 1-point rise from 36% in December. Some 52% do not approve of Biden .
“President Biden closes his term with an approval rating 12 points lower than the first Emerson national poll in 2021 that measured the president’s approval, at 49%,” said Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling. “Biden ends with a 70% approval among his base of Democratic voters, a 16-point drop since the 2021 poll, 33% among independents, a 2-point drop, and 10% among Republican voters, a 10-point decrease.
Those poor numbers are driven in part by the belief among voters that Biden has damaged the economy and is leaving it in worse shape than when he took over after President-elect Donald Trump’s first term. “A majority of voters think the country is on the wrong track, while 33% think the U.S. is headed in the right direction. This compares to the beginning of the Biden term when 54% thought the country was on the wrong track and 46% thought the country was headed in the right direction,” the Emerson analysis said.Biden can hope that his approval turns around in retirement, as it did for former President Jimmy Carter.
