A Washington Post-ABC News poll has found that President Biden is struggling to gain approval from the American public. Dissatisfaction is growing over his handling of the economy and immigration, and there are concerns about his age as he seeks a second term. The poll also suggests that Biden and former President Donald Trump could face a rematch in the 2024 election, although more than three in five Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents say they would prefer a nominee other than Biden.
Biden’s advisers argue that he is the strongest Democrat for 2024, as there is no consensus among those who wish for someone else. The poll shows Biden trailing Trump by a massive 10 percentage points.
In his bid to become the Republican presidential nominee for a third time, Trump is in a strong position nationally, despite facing multiple criminal charges. He is favored by 54 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is second at 15 percent, and no other Republican reaches double digits. Trump also leads his GOP rivals in recent state polls. The poll also asked about accountability for both Trump and Biden.
Fifty three percent of Americans say Trump is being held accountable under the law like others, while 40 percent say he is being unfairly victimized by his political opponents. Regarding the impeachment inquiry aimed at Biden by House Republicans, 58 percent of Americans say Biden is being held accountable, while 32 percent say he is being unfairly victimized.
Biden’s overall approval stands at 37 percent, with 56 percent of Americans disapproving of his performance. His approval rating on handling the economy has dropped to 30 percent, the lowest of his presidency. Concerns about inflation persist, and the public’s perception of the economy, gas prices, and food prices remains negative. On immigration, 23 percent of Americans approve of Biden’s handling of the situation at the U.S.-Mexico border, while 62 percent disapprove. The poll also revealed significant demographic variations, with Trump leading among men, voters under age 35, and those who say they did not vote in 2020.
The poll was conducted from September 15-20 with a random national sample of 1,006 U.S. adults. The margin of sampling error is plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
Dear Democrats,
It doesn't matter which candidate you put up against Donald Trump. We're going to absolutely destroy them.

PS Defeatist losers, RINOS and NeverTrumpers need not to reply.
I seldom read the WaPo and certainly wouldn’t get a subscription, but I think you must be able to read so many “free” articles per month because I was able to read their story on this poll. The comments are what’s so amusing. And they believe Trump supporters are a “cult”. My goodness!
From the comments they really believe that Biden has done amazing things. From the pull-out of Afghanistan (an amazing success), to the economy (best ever), to the southern border (solved all the problems caused there by Trump), and so much more, they truly believe that Biden’s policies have brought the nation back from the brink of destruction.
The democrats do not see how anyone could support any candidate other than Biden in 2024, so the polls are obviously extremely wrong.
Now I too distrust polls and believe they are created to manage opinions rather than reflect them. However, from all the people I speak to, whether in the grocery store or doctor’s waiting rooms, I can’t find anyone who is happy with the current trajectory of our country and they all seem to blame Biden and the democrats.
A weird poll where Republicans are over representative. Not sure what to think.
Group Sample size Error margin % of weighted sample
National adults 1,006 +/- 3.5 points 100
Registered voters 890
Leaned Democrats 396
Leaned Republicans 474
They intend to dump Biden and are looking for they best way to do it. He is a liability, and they want to nominate someone who can beat Trump.
Whoever they choose will be a figurehead. Biden's/Obama's puppet masters will continue to control the Federal Government--and the election process.
Remember when Caligula made his horse a senator? The Democrats are exactly the same. They would be happy with an animal in the Presidency if they could get away with it, and they would love to insult and belittle America and the American People and flaunt their power.
They HATE the USA.
However the time's not quite right yet. They're satisfied with fools like Biden and Obama and the rest of the Democrat politicians for the time being.
“A weird poll where Republicans are over representative. Not sure what to think.”
They start the poll with the desired result. This poll was ordered to show Biden that it is time for him to step out of the race. Newsom is the new deep state favorite.
Bye Biden, hello Newsom.
Great point.
It doesn't matter how many points Trump's lead is, unfortunately, the dems will not allow him to become President ever again. They have mastered cheating and for us it doesn't matter if we vote early and often, they will still cheat, guaranteed, unfortunately.
This poll is called an “outlier” by a number of “experts”. Let us see if it returns to the trendline or if it IS the trend.
If cheat-by-mail-in ballots without any enforced signature verification are allowed again, then it will be stolen just like 2020 with Trump and 2022 with Kari lake.
“It does NOT MATTER who votes, it only matters WHO COUNTS the ballots…” - Joseph Bribing Stolen 🤔🤨🤦♂️
Yes - and anyone that disagrees is literally,like killing my grandma.
Glad to see that 2024 is wrapped up - 4 year of Biden and the Democrats is MORE THAN ENOUGH!
They want Trump to be the nominee and Biden to drop out.
