Joe Biden hits RECORD LOW approval rating of 33 percent in devastating poll

The ABC News/Ipsos poll surveyed 2,228 adults from Jan. 4 to 8It found Biden's approval rating dropped to a new low, the worst in 15 years

President Joe Biden’s job approval rating has dropped to a low for any president in the past 15 years, according to a poll published Monday.

The ABC News/Ipsos poll found Biden had an approval rating of just 33 percent, while 58 percent of respondents said they did not approve of his performance.

That is four points below his standing in September, the last time the poll was conducted.

It makes him less popular that Donald Trump, his likely presidential election opponent, who hit 36 percent approval at the lowest ebb of his time in office.

And it is the lowest mark for any president since George W. Bush plunged the depths from 2006 through 2008.

The poll was conducted from Jan, 4 to 8, among a random national sample of 2,228 adults.

It shows just how much work Biden has to do ahead of the election. His only consolation is that he led the likely Republican candidate on a key electability question.

Some 41 percent said he was ‘honest and trustworthy’ while only 26 percent said the description applied to Trump.

However, Biden fares worse when it comes to questions of physical and mental ability.

Only 28 percent said the president had the mental sharpness needed, down from 32 percent last year, and the same proportion said he was in good enough physical shape, down from 33 percent.

In contrast, Trump has the mental sharpness for the job, according to 47 percent, a seven-point drop from last May. Some 57 percent say he has the physical strength, down from 64 percent last May.

Economic concerns have long been the main factor undermining Biden’s approval rating.

Just 13 percent of Americans said they had become better off since Biden took office, with 43 percent saying they are not as well off. However that marks a slight improvement from the 37-year-record set last year when 44 percent said they were not as well off.
