Biden approval drops to lowest of presidency - Reuters/Ipsos poll
Reuters ^ | September 16, 2021 | Chris Kahn

Public approval of U.S. President Joe Biden has dropped to the lowest level of his presidency, with Americans appearing to be increasingly critical of his response to the coronavirus pandemic, according to the latest Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll.

The national poll, conducted Sept. 15-16, found that 44% of U.S. adults approved of Biden’s performance in office, while 50% disapproved and the rest were not sure.

Biden’s popularity has been declining since mid-August as the U.S.-backed Afghan government collapsed and as COVID-19-related deaths surged across the country.

While most Americans support the kind of vaccine and mask requirements that Biden has ordered recently to slow the spread of the Delta variant, some Republicans have criticized what they consider to be an overreaction by the White House.

The weekly poll showed the number of Americans who approved of Biden’s response to the pandemic dropped below 50% for the first time: About 48% approved of the president’s COVID-19 policies, while 46% disapproved.

At the same point in Donald Trump’s presidency, about 38% of Americans approved of his performance in office, while 57% disapproved.

The Reuters/Ipsos poll is conducted online in English throughout the United States. The latest poll gathered responses from 1,005 adults in total including 442 Democrats and 360 Republicans. It has a credibility interval, a measure of precision, of 4 percentage points.

"44% of U.S. adults approved of Biden’s performance in office, while 50% disapproved and the rest were not sure."

Soon the disapproved poll number will match the actual percentage of people who voted for him.

Approval rates are optional for regimes that steal elections

Not only a fake poll, but just look at the fake propaganda about Donald Trump.

The title is the hook. Then comes the jab. Lies and propaganda are all the MSM know.

Trump was Far more popular than Biden ever could dream of being. And right now even many of his own regret him.

Joe Biden is a disposable front-man for the people organizing the objective, so they don’t have to worry about political damage. The Biden term was designed for a single set of four-year rapid advancements for the Democrat Socialist agenda. The Biden poll ratings and favorability, or lack therein, do not factor into the plan of action; those issues are irrelevant.

I normally divide their stated number by 2 to find the more accurate number

What is the value of an approval rating?

If Biden’s approval rating declines down to 0%, does that mean that he will resign? I doubt that he will ever resign.

Then what do we hope happens to Biden if he has a low approval rating?
