President Joe Biden’s approval rating dipped to the lowest point of his presidency in May, a new poll shows, with deepening pessimism emerging among members of his own Democratic Party.
Only 39% of U.S. adults approve of Biden’s performance as president, according to the poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Research, dipping from already negative ratings a month earlier.
Overall, only about 2 in 10 adults say the U.S. is heading in the right direction or the economy is good, both down from about 3 in 10 a month earlier. Those drops were concentrated among Democrats, with just 33% within the president’s party saying the country is headed in the right direction, down from 49% in April.
Of particular concern for Biden ahead of the midterm elections, his approval among Democrats stands at 73%, a substantial drop since earlier in his presidency. In AP-NORC polls conducted in 2021, Biden’s approval rating among Democrats never dropped below 82%.
But there are signs that the dissatisfaction with Biden on the economy has deepened. Just 18% of Americans say Biden’s policies have done more to help than hurt the economy, down slightly from 24% in March. Fifty-one percent say they’ve done more to hurt than help, while 30% say they haven’t made much difference either way.

Thank the Founders for their foresight about the second amendment.
It’s been 39 for a long time now. I don’t remember recent polls of him even being in the 40’s- but by all,rights, he shoukd be at 29, not 39. (Gotta account for dolts who won’t abandon a sinking ship no matter what)
“....Only 39% of U.S. adults approve of Biden’s performance as president,....”
oh, come on now....I can’t believe for a moment that this figure is at all accurate...I, too, believe it is actually in the 20s somewhere.....what an embarrasing PoS we have for a President...
Lolol…is it down to 87% per ministry of truth?…president cabbage head…oh sorry that is an insult to cabbage…
Yesterday at the House cmte some Dem refused to say that Gas was too high. So clearly they have some true wacko environuts around who desperately want $10 gas.
Stupid Americans, don’t know how good they got it!
What moron thinks that inflation is good and $4-$6 gas is good?
They blame Trump for it. Trump wrecked the economy. It doesn’t matter that it makes absolutely no sense.
He’s pretty much reached the floor of the inane “approval” pool, but it keeps creeping lower.
IF AP says 39% you know that it’s 29%.
This is now the SEVENTH poll to have him in the 30s (Baris, a month ago had him just over 40).
All time low is RN with 24%, Truman 32%, W/Carter/Trump finished their terms at 34% per Gallup.
Yup- if they claim 39% the real number is half that
If there was an honest press he would be at 10%.
It’s not a dip. A dip implies it is definitely coming back up. I imagine stock analysts, in a need to be honest, don’t use the term dip unless they’re looking at a past resolved trend. Historical
This is a dive. There is nothing at all that will ever cause the US public to like Biden. He has made a mess — a disaster- of:
-the economy
-The military - he cannot redeem the Afghanistan fiasco I don’t care if he gets Front Page’s Daniel Greenfield to talk up military involvement in ukraine with this hapless pentagon- oh that DID happen. No sale
- that’s enough right there
His ratings will never come back up
It’s not a dip. It’s a dive.
- "He's up against a lot of Reep obstruction and Biden-Dem blaming for what they the Reeps are doing. Plus a GOP-centered media." [emphasis added]
LOL!!!!!!!
- "it would help if Democrats starting laying blame at republican feet where it belongs repeatedly - that's what the voters need to hear to understand"
Start? Please. Voters wouldn't believe you anyway.
- "The border gets too little attention in my opinion.... Biden certainly did not create this, but he is getting the blame for not getting anything done about it."
What alternate universe do these degenerates live in?!
- "Biden's 'optics' not too good. trump is incredibly inferior to Biden in so many ways - especially in intelligence."
How could anyone utter anything like that with a straight face?
The cost of rigging er um ah I mean voting wrong.
When destroying the United States is the goal, destruction of the United States is the “rigth direction” for these moral reprobates.
Yep
Yep
