President Biden is facing an alarming level of doubt from inside his own party, with 64 percent of Democratic voters saying they would prefer a new standard-bearer in the 2024 presidential campaign, according to a New York Times/Siena College poll, as voters nationwide have soured on his leadership, giving him a meager 33 percent job-approval rating.


And guess what, it's going even lower!



Widespread concerns about the economy and inflation have helped turn the national mood decidedly dark, both on Mr. Biden and the trajectory of the nation. More than three-quarters of registered voters see the United States moving in the wrong direction, a pervasive sense of pessimism that spans every corner of the country, every age range and racial group, cities, suburbs and rural areas, as well as both political parties.

Only 13 percent of American voters said the nation was on the right track — the lowest point in Times polling since the depths of the financial crisis more than a decade ago.

For Mr. Biden, that bleak national outlook has pushed his job approval rating to a perilously low point. Republican opposition is predictably overwhelming, but more than two-thirds of independents also now disapprove of the president’s performance, and nearly half disapprove strongly. Among fellow Democrats his approval rating stands at 70 percent, a relatively low figure for a president, especially heading into the 2022 midterms when Mr. Biden needs to rally Democrats to the polls to maintain control of Congress.

In a sign of deep vulnerability and of unease among what is supposed to be his political base, only 26 percent of Democratic voters said the party should renominate him in 2024.

The backlash against Mr. Biden and desire to move in a new direction were particularly acute among younger voters. In the survey, 94 percent of Democrats under the age of 30said they would prefer a different presidential nominee.

The White House has tried to trumpet strong job growth, including on Friday when Mr. Biden declared that he had overseen “the fastest and strongest jobs recovery in American history.” But the Times/Siena poll showed a vast disconnect between those boasts, and the strength of some economic indicators, and the financial reality that most Americans feel they are confronting.

Overall, abortion rated as the most important issue for 5 percent of voters: 1 percent of men, 9 percent of women.

When Mr. Biden won in 2020, he made a point of trying to make inroads among working-class white voters who had abandoned the Democratic Party in droves in the Trump era. But whatever crossover appeal Mr. Biden once had appears diminished. His job approval rating among white voters without college degrees was a stark 20 percent.

Mr. Biden’s base, in 2020 and now, remains Black voters. They delivered the president a 62 percent job-approval rating — higher marks than any other race or ethnicity, age group or education level. But even among that constituency, there are serious signs of weakening. On the question of renominating Mr. Biden in 2024, slightly more Black Democratic voters said they wanted a different candidate than said they preferred Mr. Biden.

“I understand that they’ve got a tough job,” he said of Mr. Biden’s administration. “He wasn’t prepared to do the job.”


Mr. Biden hasn’t reached bottom yet. The claims about gasoline prices lowering inflation, proves just how clueless he is about economic issues. The CPI keeps rising and unfortunately so will inflation. Surely interest rates will not rise to Jimmy Carter levels. I am not planning on buying anything on credit so that really doesn’t concern me as much as it should the younger folks

Yeah, looks like gas prices might be the least of our worries but hey, if you don't have a job, you won't be spending a lot of money on gas. A bright side to every issue, huh?
Biden would still kick the fucking moron biggest loser ever ass.

Dah... They are not running in 2024. Keep sending trumpy money though and he will make your member golden...if you meet the deadline

That didn't take long. Just saw a poll that has him at 29% but I'm not going to say that is exactly what all polling is saying but I have no doubt Joe Biden will have a consensus polling of 29% before the mid-terms or even lower. Hell, only 13% of people polled think the country is going in the right direction so how do 29% think he is doing a good job?


All this polling can tell us is what is mostly likely happening and even that could be wrong but I don't think the polling on Biden's approval is that far off the money.


Did you see Biden get a question about the Democrats not wanting him to run again? Biden got testy and got up so close to the camera you could see his pores and Biden says "read the polls Jack", the polls say that 92% of Democrats would vote for me again.


Well that's true Mr. President IF you were in a head to head match-up with the Devil, sorry Trump but that doesn't negate the fact that at this point assuming Trump is not the nominee, only 26% want you to run again. Do you think he doesn't know that is what the polling says or he just won't admit it and I can't blame him for that.

Most Democrats want someone other than Biden to run for president in 2024 — but he could still beat Trump, poll says


PUBLISHED MON, JUL 11 2022


Just 26% of Democrats said they would prefer President Joe Biden to be their party’s candidate in the 2024 election, and 64% want someone else heading the ticket, a new poll found.
