Biden's approval rating on Monday slipped below 50% for the first time in the RealClearPolitics average of polls. It now sits at 49.4%, wth 47.2% disapproving of the president's performance.
That same day, Reuters/Ipsos released a poll showing that Biden's national approval rating had slipped to 46%, a notable dip from the president's 53% approval rating in its Friday polling.
The development comes after a weekend which saw the Afghan capital city of Kabul fall to the Taliban amidst the US withdrawing from the country nearly 20 years after the start of the Afghanistan war in 2001.
While support for the war had deteriorated precipitously over the years, the full scale of the reaction among the American electorate will likely continue to be revealed across polling in the coming days.
Looking back at Biden's immediate predecessors, former President Donald Trump had an approval rating of 37.8% in the FiveThirtyEight polling average on August 18, 2017, while his disapproval rating sat at 55.4%.
In a mid-August 2009 Gallup poll, former President Barack Obama had a 54% approval rating, with 40% disapproving, which was consistent with his Real Clear Politics at the time - which featured a polling average of 53.5% approval and 40.1% disapproval.

Biden is closer to 30 than he has ever been and, I predict, he will have the lowest approval of any President in history before this clown show ends.
