Biden's job rating sinks to 42 percent in NBC News poll a year from midterms
NBC News / Comcast ^ | October 31, 2021 | By Mark Murray

WASHINGTON — A majority of Americans now disapprove of President Joe Biden's job performance, while half give him low marks for competence and uniting the country, according to results from the latest national NBC News poll.

What's more, the survey finds that 7 in 10 adults, including almost half of Democrats, believe the nation is headed in the wrong direction, as well as nearly 60 percent who view Biden's stewardship of the economy negatively just nine months into his presidency.

One year before next year's midterm elections and less than a week before Virginia's closely watched race for governor, Biden's lower standing has also taken a toll on his party: Democrats trail Republicans on which party better handles the economy, inflation and immigration, while they’ve lost ground on issues like education and the coronavirus.

“Democrats face a country whose opinion of President Biden has turned sharply to the negative since April,” said Democratic pollster Jeff Horwitt of Hart Research Associates, who conducted the survey with Republican pollster Bill McInturff of Public Opinion Strategies.

“The promise of the Biden presidency — knowledge, competence and stability in tough times — have all been called into question,” Horwitt continued.

“What people voted for was stability and calm," added fellow Democratic pollster Peter Hart. "And what they got was instability and chaos.”

I don’t get it – – a couple weeks ago he was at 37%, now all of a sudden 42% is the new low?

I didn’t see anything in the article about splits by party. In a similar poll done by Fox News last week, he was at 38% total, but 92% pf Democrats think he’s doing well. So all this confirms is that his “voters” like what he is doing. No real news here.

I get eyes rolled at me, called all kinds of names, STUPID, is most common and piss people off whenever I talk about the fact that ALL dimocrat voters are ignorant, selfish, suffer from cognitive dissonance and are ALL mendacious reprobates unworthy of anything other than total ideological destruction. That’s okay, the truth hurts.

I have serious questions about the validity of his “approvals” being that high.

.....the HARD LEFT in America has always been + or - a few points 25%. Meaning, no matter what, in the rare “honest” poll, the Hard Left get’s say 25 to 30%.

So, a “poll” hired out by Robert and Brian Roberts (owners of comcast), who are as lefty as they come in Corporate America, , once adjusted for LL (Liberal’s lying), would, like this one, show Biden down around 30% or at the literal bottom of the barrel.

Why so surprised? We knew the bumbling @&& was going to be protected by the evil liberal pollsters by circling their wagons around false numbers . You’ll never ever see him fall below 40 in my opinion. Rigged polls!

Biden will even sink more after his weird performance in front of the Pope better described as “Take-A-Dump-Chump, Biden in action!!! To boot, most of the European attendees could care less if Failed POTUS, Joe Biden and his ego driven wife Jill are there. Another Democrat, Joe Biden failure!!!

Wake up Americans, Wise up, Americans, Wake up, Democrat, Moderates, Wise up, Democrat, Moderates...if Republican, Glenn Youngkin should win the governor election in Virginia this coming week, Democrat Faux POTUS, Joe Biden is toast and so is the Democrat Party!!! Be smart....Jump ship while you can, Democrat Moderates!!! Become Republicans!!!

So, making the adjustment for it being an NBC poll, his approval is actually 11% (roughly the communist population of the U. S.) . . .

A dim candidate will always get 35-40% of the vote. Just like a gop-e will.

If they say 42 it is actually 32 or less.
