Biden is at his lowest approval number yet — 38 percent. "These new poll numbers are frankly brutal for the president," CNN anchorJake Tapper
The 38 percent approval is perhaps the best news in the poll when looking at how Americans see the president's performance on individual issues. "Brutal" is almost a generous way to describe it.
On his handling of the economy, which was in the midst of a V-shaped recovery when Biden took office, he's 16 points underwater (39 percent approve, 55 percent disapprove).
Biden is at 32 percent approval with independents, the people who decide elections in battleground states such as Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania and Nevada.
On taxes, the president is 17 points underwater.
On the southern border, where the U.S. is on pace to eclipse 2.3 million people crossing illegally this year, he's at 23 percent approval
On Biden’s job as commander in chief of the U.S. military, 37 percent approve and 58 percent disapprove
On the question of whether the administration — not just Biden — is competently running the government, just 42 percent say it is doing so.
Afghanistan has faded from the news. The COVID-19 picture is improving. And Biden's approval rating ... has NOT rebounded.
And that's where it's hard to see how Biden, who turns 79 years old next month, turns this around by making his arguments on how to fix X, Y and Z and beyond.
His handlers apparently remain petrified to allow him to speak beyond reading off a teleprompter
