Biden disapprovals at 58%

President Joe Biden has an upside-down 36%-58% approval rating with an astonishing 88% of Americans saying the nation is on the wrong track, according to a new Monmouth University national poll released on Tuesday.

One-third of the country (33%) lists inflation as their top issue, followed by gas process (15%) and the economy (9%). Abortion polled at 5%, with guns at 3% and Covid at 1%.

“Economic concerns tend to rise to the top of the list of family concerns, as you might expect, but the singular impact of inflation is really hitting home right now,” said Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Polling Institute. “And most Americans are blaming Washington for their current pain.”

Nearly half of Americans (42%) are struggling to remain where they are financially. That’s up 18 percentage points since last year.

Biden’s approvals are at 29%-63% among independents, and 42%-52% among self-identified moderates.

The Monmouth Poll was conducted from June 23-27 with a sample of 978 adults and a margin of error of +/- 3.1%.

12% can’t admit they were wrong, or they’re in on it.

And yet 30 % still say Biden is doing a great job. Stupid and fat is no way to go through life.

If voting no longer counts, surely polling matters.

“88% of Americans say U.S. in on the wrong track, national Monmouth Poll says”

Most say it’s on the wrong track but for different reasons.
44% think it’s too Leftist.
44% think it’s not Leftist enough.

33 + 15 + 9 = 57%

5 + 3 + 1 = 9%.

That's a ratio of better than six-to-one, issues that favor the right over those that favor the left.

How log before nuts on Twitter say it’s due to white supremacy since “88” is code for Adolf Hitler?

Still a huge fall from his supposed “81 million votes”

Who ARE the 12%? Direct descendants of Marx, Engles, Lenin, Stalin, Mao and FDR?

It’s not the votes that count but who counts the votes.

i dont believe monmouth, quinnipiac etc. and that 88% must be HIGHER than reported. 88% is still eye-popping.

36% approval, 88% wrong track. So 24% can put two and two together and identify why America is on the wrong track. The other 12% are hopelessly lost morons. When unemployment hits this autumn, they need to lose their jobs first. I have always maintained that 10 to 15% of the population should be unemployed. They are worthless and just make it difficult for productive people from doing their jobs and being appropriately compensated.

Take this to the bank...the folks who convince voters they can solve these issues win:

Inflation, gas prices, and the economy

No one cares about abortion, guns, or Covid.
