Sour views on economy keep Biden approval on issues down: POLL
ABC via Currently ^ | August 7, 2022 | HANNAH DEMISSIE

Posted on 08/07/2022 11:47:01 AM PDT by John W

With the midterm elections three months away, Americans maintain a sour view on the state of the economy and are pessimistic about its future course, with President Joe Biden’s approval rating across a range of issue areas continuing to suffer, according to a new ABC News/Ipsos poll.

More than two-thirds (69%) of Americans think the nation’s economy is getting worse — the highest that measure has reached since 2008, when it was 82% in an ABC News/Washington Post poll. Currently, only 12% think the economy is getting better and 18% think it is essentially staying the same.

Americans' views of Biden's handling of the economic recovery remain overwhelmingly negative — and are virtually unchanged from the same poll in early June, with only 37% of Americans approving of the job the president is doing and 62% disapproving in the latest ABC News/Ipsos poll, which was conducted using Ipsos' KnowledgePanel.

The president’s rating on inflation is even worse, with 29% of Americans saying they approve, while 69% disapprove. This number is also unchanged since June.

I can’t wait until next week when Biden’s approval is STILL in the toilet and all the liberal media is all scratching their heads saying, “But...but...he just had a HUGE victory on this spending boondoggle to increase the size of the IRS sevenfold, you mean voters don’t want IRS agents sniffing up their rearends?!?”

Or maybe it’s because he’s a mentally ill fruit cake.

With all the discussion of the just passed bill, the IRS component was mysteriously missing from most discussion. And the name of the bill is an outlandish joke.

And the Kenyan usurper won.
