President Joe Biden’s job approval isn’t just collapsing, his biggest allies are now his harshest critics.

The latest Pew Research poll finds Biden’s job approval has seen its biggest plunge among voters born between 1997 and 2004, commonly known as “Generation Z.”

When polled between January and June of 2021, the youngest voters were Biden’s biggest supporters, with 60 percent saying they approved of his job performance.

But that’s plummeted an astonishing 21 percent in just months.  When polled between September 2021 and March 2022, only 39 percent approved.

Amazingly, that’s his worst job approval of any age group. 

Among “millennials,” born between 1981 and 1996, Biden’s job approval fell from 60 percent to 40 percent.

Among “Generation X,” born between 1964 and 1980, Biden’s job approval fell from 55 percent to 40 percent.

Among “Baby Boomers,” born between 1946 and 1964, Biden’s job approval fell from 53 percent to 46 percent.

Among “traditionalists,” born before 1946, Biden’s job approval fell from 56 percent to 42 percent.

Pew speculates younger voters are more likely to abandon Biden because they are more likely to identify as political independents, and feel less need to defend the leader of their political party.

“Only about one in four traditionalists (27%) and one in three baby boomers (34%) identify as political independents,” Pew writes. “This compares with roughly half of Americans among Generation X, millennials, and Generation Z.”

  1. Biden’s are nothing but a bunch of losers!!! They are vultures that have lived off the American taxpayer with their greed and corruption.. They, in the good old days, would be tried for treason and faced a firing squad. What they have done to this country hanging would be too good for them…Sad day in America as long as they have any say in our future..

  2. Truth be told, it is probably much lower! Perhaps in the range of twenty five or lower. No one I know approves of him, they want him OUT!
