Only one-third of Americans gave President Biden a thumbs up on the job he is doing in the White House, according to a new national public opinion survey.
The president stands at 34% approval in a Monmouth University poll released on Monday, with 61% giving Biden a thumbs down on his job performance.
The president’s approval is at an all-time low in Monmouth polling since Biden took over the White House nearly three years ago.
Americans questioned in the survey gave the president particularly low marks for his handling of immigration (26%) and inflation (28%).
“The Biden administration keeps touting their infrastructure investments and a host of positive economic indicators.
Those data points may be factual, but most Americans are still smarting from higher prices caused by post-pandemic inflation.
This seems to be what’s driving public opinion,” Patrick Murray, director of the Monmouth University Polling Institute, highlighted.
“There is political danger in pushing a message that basically tells people their take on their own situation is wrong.”
Murray spotlighted that “there is certainly an element of partisanship in how people frame their own financial situation, which is based in part on who occupies the White House.
But even a good chunk of Biden’s Democratic base wish he’d start paying more attention to their top priorities than he is now.”
