Americans believe that President Biden faced bigger challenges than his predecessor Donald Trump during his first 100 days in office — and performed better than Trump despite those difficulties, according to a new Yahoo News/YouGov poll.
The survey of 1,558 U.S. adults, which was conducted from April 27 to April 29, found that less than a third say Trump’s challenges were bigger than Biden’s (31 percent) or that Trump performed better (32 percent) during the first 100 days of his presidency. Pluralities say Biden has performed better than Trump (41 percent) in the face of greater obstacles (37 percent).
The favorable comparison with Trump underscores a broader takeaway for Biden: At the historic 100-day mark, Americans largely approve of his presidency. In fact, Biden’s overall approval rating has now climbed to 54 percent, the highest it has ever been in a Yahoo News/YouGov poll. His disapproval rating stands at just 37 percent.
Trump’s approval rating never averaged more than 48 percent, a peak he reached five days into his tenure; at 100 days, 53 percent of Americans disapproved of Trump’s performance, while just 42 percent approved. A majority of Americans continued to disapprove of Trump for the remainder of his presidency.

Asked about Biden’s “$2 trillion legislative package designed to modernize America’s infrastructure and combat climate change” — which includes “increasing funding for rural broadband internet access, investing in electric vehicles and providing advanced training for workers in manufacturing and other industries” — 47 percent of Americans say they favor it versus 32 percent who say they do not.
The numbers for Biden’s second big proposal — a “$1.8 trillion legislative package designed to support working families” with “childcare subsidies, national paid family leave and universal pre-K” — are slightly better, at 50 percent favor to 30 percent oppose.

It’s a Yahoo story.
No need to read any further, once you know that.
The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Friday shows that 47% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Biden’s job performance. Fifty-one percent (51%) disapprove.
The latest figures include 29% who Strongly Approve of the job Biden is doing and 42% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -13.
The majority of NO ONE said this. Attempts to contact them for comment have been unsuccessful so far.
Adults? Not voters, not Likely Voters?
It’s obvious from their articles that Yahoo! has been paid off by the Democrats.
I wonder how much it cost. One, maybe two thousand bucks?
Do you think anyone actually believes this?
FAKE NEWS ALERT !
Gullible imbeciles.
Man, I’d love to get some of these so-called “Americans” at a poker table.... I’d own their houses.
More garbage lies from the garbage media

A majority of Americans continued to disapprove of Trump for the remainder of his presidency.

A flat-out lie.
From hip boots to chest waders to full immersion suit in a nanosecond.
Did they ask the “Americans” that just crossed the southern border?
Biden has done nothing but Ban , Shut things down and waste a ton of money
They do…. And by the tens of millions.
LMAO. This is as valid as the recent MSM poll whose internals were found to be 3 to 1 Democrat voters in the poll.
That’s how the media treats incompetents. It covers up for them and lies.
UH, not Americans.
