There is very bad news for President Obama and the Democrats in a new poll released last night by Investors Business Daily. John Merline writes:
President Obama's approval rating dropped to his lowest levels as the public hammers him on his handling of each of the major crises facing the country, according to the latest IBD/TIPP poll, released on Friday.
The survey, taken the last week of July, found that only 38% of the public approves of the job Obama is doing as president, while 53% disapprove.
That's a 10-point negative swing in just the past month.
Breaking out the internals, it becomes clear that the Border Crisis is driving this sharp decline:
This drop comes despite the fact that personal outlooks and views on the economy and direction of the country have barely budged. Nor did the public's views on Obama's handling of the economy, the budget and jobs change noticeably.
But Obama got extremely low marks in his handling of every major crisis gripping the nation at home and abroad.
Just 25% say Obama is handling the border crisis well, while 56% blame his policies for encouraging the wave of illegal crossings by children and teens. Even among Democrats, only 46% say Obama is doing a good job, while less than a quarter (23%) of independents do.

This news probably delights him. His entire goal was to punish us.
November can't come fast enough.
He hates America and is most likely pleased that we hate him back.
I pretty much agree with your post.
2012 proved to me that Axlerod and Plouffe could elect Charles Manson as POTUS on the Dem ticket if they wanted.
I’m now theorizing that the Clintons are going to use this as the basis of their 2016 campaign.
Basically saying that it’s inevitable that Dems are going to win, and unless you want Lizzie Warren as POTUS, Republicans should vote for Hillary in the primaries.
The president could have a 5% favorable rating and still not care. He is able to do his thing by executive order and through the rogue alphabet agencies. He can golf, fundraise, and point the finger of blame. And when he is done, he will go off like the Clintons and earn $200 million. No worries, until he has to talk to Jesus.
Hope that’ll result in a landslide in November, especially if people write in Bevin and Chris McDaniels.
And how many of the fools who don’t like him now voted for this incompetent putz...twice?
It just amazes me that 38% of the American people still APPROVE of Obama.....
The really sad part is 38% of this Nation is whack.
“...unless you want Lizzie Warren as POTUS, Republicans should vote for Hillary in the primaries.”
I understand your sentiment, but this advice (like Rush’s Operation Chaos) won’t work anymore. Primaries are where the “Third Party” battles take place - conservative vs. RINO - in states with party specific primary ballots.
Yes as school starts and kids get sick. Agree.
What the LIVs do not seem to realize is that the influx of illegals hurts the LIVs more than anyone else.
I want to believe, I really do, but I’ve seen the GOPe in action and they’re doing their damnedest to suppress the conservative vote in the fall.
But wait there'a good news at the border for Obama and Michele (Snix):
"Dad I want you to meet my boyfriend Pedro Gonzales-Martinez. We're in love, I'm pregnant and we're going too live in a trailer park in Tijuana."
"Pedro can't work b/c he has Chikungunya so he crosses the border every week to get his unemployment and workmen's compensation checks. "
"Pedro can't use his real name b/c he's a sex offender. We'll get by on EITC checks b/c Pedro has four children from different mothers."
"Yeo, amigo."
SO MANY AT SUCH A SHORT TIME IN CLUSTERS OF GREAT NUMBERS.
SOMEONE HAS to be spearheading this INVASION! It is coming off with barely a hitch.
Maybe these "kids" could be contained in "FEMA Camps" until they can be sent home.
Why are they being dispersed around the country? And, I say "kids" because some of these individuals are clearly tattooed, over minority age (18 or so), and some identified as MS-13 and other gang bangers.
Well, Hussein did say American "kids" could stay on parents insurance policies as dependents up to age 26.
26 IS THE NEW 18.
I “heard” that.
oh that had the answer on how to combat the enemy within
Be very wary. I remember lots of polls saying Obama was toast the Summer before the Dems cheated their way to re-election in 2012. Could just be another attempt to get us to lower our guard.
