A new poll conducted by NPR/PBS News Hour is now showing President Biden’s popularity has reached a new, historic low.
As The Hill reports:
The new NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll found that Biden’s approval rating has sunk to 41 percent, a historic low for the president in polls conducted by the groups. Fifty-five percent of adults in the U.S. disapprove of the job Biden is doing as president.
When broken down by party, 29 percent of independents polled said they strongly approve or approve of the job Biden is doing, while 66 percent said they strong disapprove or disapprove.
Eighty-seven percent of Democrats and just 4 percent of Republicans gave the president positive marks for the job he is doing.
Biden’s most recent approval rating is a slight decline from 42 percent in a poll released on Dec. 9. His approval for the polling groups peaked mid-April, when 54 percent of adults gave him positive marks.
The new poll comes just as Biden is being pummeled by multiple crises at home and abroad, including a major new surge of the Covid-19 ‘Omicron’ variant.
