Biden approval rating jumps to its highest level in two months in Reuters-Ipsos poll

This helps some



https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/3595580-biden-approval-rating-jumps-to-its-highest-level-in-two-months-in-reuters-ipsos-poll/

President Biden’s approval rating rose to its highest level in two months in a Reuters-Ipsos poll released on Tuesday.

Biden’s approval rating rose to 40 percent, up 2 percentage points, while his disapproval rating fell to 55 percent.

The increase is partially fueled by more Democrats approving of Biden’s job performance. The poll showed Biden’s approval among Democrats rose 9 points from last month to 78 percent.

Only 12 percent of Republicans approved of Biden’s performance.

Biden’s approval rating in the poll hit its lowest point in May at 36 percent, and it has remained below 50 percent since August 2021, according to the poll.

He could have an approval rating about 90 percent and I bet the Sunday morning 'news' shows would still be mostly toadies talking to GOPers.

The media spends 23.5 hours a day on the latest babbling and threats from Trump and his gang. They do not even bother to show all his bill signings, just to show him signing, then go right back to the same old crap.

I get my information from DU amd other internet clips. But always find the latest news here.

We want President Biden's numbers to go up? Well then, at the very least Dems need to support their own standard bearer. Who, I might add, has had a whole slew of accomplishments in very dicey political waters and a razor-thin majority.

This ain't rocket science. You support the guy you brought to the ball, particularly when they've delivered and the alternatives are . . . horrific.
