Social Media Posted August 26, 2023 Share Posted August 26, 2023 A majority of Americans in a new Gallup poll disapprove of President Biden’s handling of immigration, the economy and relations with China and Russia as he campaigns for another term in the White House. The poll found Biden’s overall job approval rating at a relatively steady 42 percent, with 53 percent disapproving and 5 percent with no opinion. Less than a third approve of his job on immigration and relations with China, at 31 and 32 percent, respectively. Just 37 percent each approve of his handling the economy and relations with Russia. His economy rating has ticked up five points since March as the country recovers from stress over the debt ceiling and potential default, but it’s still down from 54 percent at the start of his term. On the other hand, Americans’ approval of his handling of the situation in Ukraine, race relations and education are higher than his overall approval score — at 47, 46 and 44 percent, respectively. Biden’s overall approval rating is up five points since a low of 37 percent in April, but is still significantly lower than the 57 percent logged at the start of his first year in office. Nearly nine in 10 Democrats approve of the president’s job performance, while just 3 percent of Republicans say the same, highlighting a stark partisan divide on the question. Thirty-nine percent of independents approve of his handling of the presidency. Taken Aug. 1-23, the Gallup poll surveyed 1,014 U.S. adults and had a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points. FULL STORY 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post placeholder Posted August 26, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 26, 2023 As far as the economy goes, it looks like what we are seeing is the same phenomenon as when people are asked about the state of education in the U.S. When asked about it in general, a majoirty Americans say it's in bad shape, but when asked about their own school systems a majority are content. Majority of Americans say the economy's bad, but their own finances are good: poll By the numbers: In the telephone survey of 1,818 adults Aug. 10-14, 71% of Americans described the economy as either not so good or poor. And 51% said it's getting worse. But 60% said their financial situation is good or excellent. https://www.axios.com/2023/08/18/americans-economy-bad-personal-finances-good 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KhunLA Posted April 11 Share Posted April 11 (edited) The economy for the real people, and what they've had to deal with the past 5 years, 3 under biden. Career politicians have and always fail, spending more than they take in. Housing price to buy, forget it. To rent, just plain silly prices.
