President Joe Biden’s poll numbers have always sucked, and unfortunately for the mainstream media, there wasn’t a handy way to spin them. There was a bright ray of sunshine, though, back in August, after Biden enjoyed a “string of wins” that he’d convert to momentum for Democrats for the midterm elections. Finally, his approval numbers were in the 40s.
Biden’s alleged string of wins is over, despite his being celebrated as Europe’s savior on Presidents Day, and his approval numbers on the economy and inflation are back in the mid to low 30s.
Press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, as usual, had no answer:
"Only 36% of voters approve of the president's handling of the economy. 31% approve of the way he's handling inflation…"

It’s true that the Biden administration had a comprehensive plan on how to deal with COVID-19 on Day 1 — it was the plan that President Donald Trump had drawn up and handed to them, despite Biden’s claim that the previous administration had left them with “nothing” regarding the pandemic.
How long are we going to keep bringing up the previous administration? Isn’t this the 2020 candidate who tweeted that he’d take responsibility?

Excuse for everything, actually just blame the prior administration for everything. #amiwrong #noownershipofcurrentfailures

What year are we in of this administration? At some point they need to take responsibility.

More Americans died under this administration. 🤡

It’s true, even though Biden had tweeted that anyone with as many COVID casualties as Trump was unfit to lead.
How does Trump factor in to the current percentage of Americans who think Biden is doing a good job or not

You can’t continually blame the previous administration for your failures.

Sure she can. She’s managed to suppress her conscience to the point where she can do it endlessly.
