Joe Biden's approval ratings are worse than every recent president -- except 1 -- at this stage

(CNN) Roughly nine months into his presidency, Joe Biden is on the verge of writing his name into the history books -- and not in a good way.

The latest polling from Gallup pegs the President's approval at just 42%, the lowest of his term to date and the second lowest of any president Gallup has measured at this moment in their presidency over the last almost five decades.

Here's a look at Biden's approval in comparison to his predecessors in Gallup polling (all of this data comes courtesy of the terrific Gallup Presidential Approval Center):

* Biden 42% (272 days into his presidency)

* Donald Trump 37% (283 days)

* Barack Obama 52% (271 days)

* George W. Bush 88% (288 days)

* Bill Clinton 47% (271 days)

* George H.W. Bush 70% (289 days)

* Ronald Reagan 53% (286 days)

* Jimmy Carter 54% (277 days)

(Worth noting: Both Bushes had hugely high ratings at this stage of their presidencies thanks to external events. For George W. Bush, he was still in the stratosphere in the wake of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

For George H.W. Bush, his numbers were inflated following the Tienanmen Square attack in China in June 1989 and the perceived ending of the Cold War.)

Biden's numbers have fallen precipitously in Gallup polling over the last several months. As recently as June, a solid majority (56%) of the country approved of the job he was doing.

That number began to collapse at the end of the summer -- dropping from 49% approval in August to 43% in September -- and have stayed at that low number for the bulk of the fall.

That is complete bull ship. In reality, at his worst, President Trump was 50%. At his worst.

Nothing is as shameful as the way the Left lies and spins and twists the truth. Biden couldn't get anyone to show up for his rallies. At many Biden campaign rallies, the alphabets' cameras outnumbered the actual attendees.

Biden tried to do a Trumanesque "whistle stop" Amtrak campaign swing through the rust belt. No one showed up. I saw a picture of Biden standing on the train platform in Johnstown, PA, and absolutely no supporters showed up.

In contrast, people would camp out waiting for President Trump to speak, camp out several days in advance.

Let’s have a contest of rallies head to head, Trump versus Brandon, and see who pulls in the larger crowds…

Trump: stadium-packed rock star

Brandon: crowded telephone booth …..oh wait, what’s a phone booth??

He’s already well below Trump. The polls are cooked and pure BS. No one I know likes Biden.

I believe that it’s 42%. African-Americans, LGBT, Liberal Jews, “Woke Millenials”, Mexicans and unmarried White women. So it all adds up rather quickly.

The media is wiping Joe’s butt 24 7 and they still can’t prop him above 50% Nothing stopping them from just lying about it.

When the top 5 songs downloaded are FJB songs, there is no way he has 42% support. He totally lost the kids, so there are no reinforcements coming.
