Biden 38% approval / 57.5 disappoval - lowest yet

Look at his numbers with black voters. While still in the positive they are well below the percentage of the vote he received. While part of the displeasure of course could be they think he's not progressive enough these folks thought he wasn't handling issues like the police, voting etc. as well as he should. Ultimately in our system of gov't the President only has so much power but nonetheless they are the ones who receive all the credit/blame.

Many black voters thought Obama wasn't progressive enough yet still gave him positive approval ratings, which far fewer are doing for Biden.
Thats true. Blacks have been slowly softening for Dems - but still very reliable.
I haven't looked at his numbers by blacks.

He's getting killed by Hispanic numbers as well -some down in the 20's
 
it's well know when a Party in power POTUS has extremely low numbers, it hurts the down ticket

House Rating Changes: Eight More Moves, Including Six in Republicans’ Direction
https://www.cookpolitical.com/analy...es-eight-more-moves-including-six-republicans
's going to take more time to gauge whether the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade will meaningfully narrow Republicans' enthusiasm advantage. But early district-level polling and primary turnout continues to paint a bleak picture for House Democrats, with President Biden's approval badly underwater in competitive seats and surprising opportunities for the GOP in places like Rhode Island and California's Central Valley. This week we're shifting six races in Republicans' direction and two in Democrats' direction. There are now 38 Democratic-held seats in Toss Up or worse compared to 10 for the GOP. We're maintaining our fall outlook of a GOP net gain of between 20 and 35 seats.

An easier prediction is the president's party almost always loses seats in mid-terms. Presidential approval and the economy are factors affecting the results.

Is that what determines your vote for your U. S. Rep and Senator?
 
you would have to get the suburban vote (particularly women) who vote abortion "rights" over the economy. and recall the "pro-life" factions are energized over the demise of Roe as well

Suburban women have kids and families and are hurting like everyone else
dream on. when inflation happens the prices never come back down-a recession is the way out,
but even there prices remain high, they just stop climbing and people get thrown out of work.

Biden is the ultimate fuck up - now he's going after drilling in the Permian Basin

It's wishful thinking that pro-lifers are energized over Roe.

They won. A fight that took 5 decades, and they got what they wanted. There goes a whole lotta fundraising for the GOP.

Biden is hardly the "ultimate fuck up." That's partisan nonsense. He inherited a mess, and not even 2 years in, has made quite a bit of progress on a lot of fronts. Inflation is the one big negative, and that's global.

How many House members are seeking Biden's endorsement :laugh:

It’s a fair question to ask what drives someone’s votes. Obviously many are voting for their party’s candidate regardless. But plenty of people also vote both Dem and Rep. There must be data out there showing how many prefer mixed gov’t etc. among those who vote for both parties
 
And Trump got relentlessly attacked by the media.

Oh, gosh - the poor thing. That's never happened to an American President.

Biden gets just as blasted by Fox & talk radio - which, as you guys like to point out, have many more listeners and viewers. That whole "poor Trump" thing ain't gonna hunt.
 
Wow - a 1 point different from Biden.

Certainly something to crow over. For the desperate.

Easy for me to say this because I’m not a Trump guy but for those who say Trump was the worst President ever it’s not exactly a glowing endorsement that the person following him has such low numbers. It’s like a coach trying to replace a legend, often it’s almost a no win situation. That’s not the case here yet look at the results

Im not debating with you on Biden .His latest is WOKE crap is making recruitment difficult

Biden Admin Super-Charged Military Recruitment Crisis With ‘Woke Policies,’
https://dailycaller.com/2022/06/29/wokeness-blame-military-recruitment-woes/
Military recruitment in 2022 has plummeted, NBC News reported, leaving the pentagon scrambling for ways to fill the ranks of U.S. forces. Alienation of traditional families, who constitute the military’s core recruiting market, through things like diversity quotas, refusing religious exemptions and teaching critical race theory at military institutions have all contributed to a growing unwillingness to enlist, according to Center for Military Readiness President Elaine Donnelly.

The result, she said, is a loss of prestige and meritocracy in the armed forces.

“The culture of the military has been eroded by several years of social engineering and woke policies. It’s been accelerated by the current administration,” Donnelly, who has been studying social issues in the military for over 30 years,
 
Him and Trump. Trump was pretty low before he lost the election and slightly lower after he lost it. Carter and Trump both have to be pretty excited that they were not the worst.

However we do know that Trump lost to this guy.

Agreed and after Brandon's first two years in office, I wonder how many would now change their vote.

Did I sound like I was bragging about Biden's #?

No, it didn't, because that's not what I was doing at all. I just think it's ridiculous for Trump supporters to split that hair.

I am interested in how voters believe money determines votes or the president's approval rating in mid-terms. Yet, none ever admit their votes are determined by these factors. I think we know our liberal posters will vote Democratic and the conservatives will vote Republican.

I have no clue how many might vote Republican because they favor divided government. I like divided government, but I would never vote for somebody like Marjorie Taylor Greene to get it.

One little Cable station vs NBC,CBS, ABC, CNN,and MSNBS hmmm :thinking: I wonder who has more viewers???

the few suburban women I know who were very vocal that Trump is ..... (fill in the blank)
and voted for Biden dont say anything now.. The numbers speak for themselves

Not that you were bragging rather this is just Biden’s current reality
