NEW YORK - U.S. President Joe Biden has seen an erosion in support since April, mainly from fellow Democrats, as his administration wrestles with Congress to make good on campaign promises and more Americans worry about an uneven economic recovery, Reuters/Ipsos polling shows. (Snip) However, a growing number of Americans disapprove of Biden's leadership on the economy, gun violence and taxation, with the biggest decline coming within Biden's Democratic Party, especially those under the age of 40, non-white Democrats or those who do not have a college degree. The economy has replaced healthcare and disease as a top concern, with

The article appears to show Biden's drop in Democrat support to stem from his not being radical enough.

He may still have support in hollyweird, big tech and the basement dwelling donuffins, both black and white, but working citizens are jumping ship. Apparently, a lot of his bumper stickers have been scratched off, as I don't see many anymore. I imagine even the rank and file, pollworking vote stealers are feeling the pinch at the gas pump and the grocery. Maybe they're beginning to realize that those 'mean' tweets saved them money.

More BS meant to weaken OUR Republican resolve. That Biden's promises aren't being kept is not Joe's fault but OUR's and if Biden weren't so in thrall to the leftist/socialist agenda he'd be viewed as being wonderful. Stay wary, my friends.

Even Reuters can't hide it any longer. There never was any support for Biden's policies or declining mental capacity. He merely provided convenient cover for still voting Democrat for those few somewhat rational Democrats. Once he's gone there's no one left that gives them even a shred of cover for voting for the criminality and corruption that the party stands for now.

Exactly, #1. The commies that run the Demmunist party were expecting Joke to wave his magic wand and fulfill all the radical promises he made with pen and phone. Free college, student loan elimination, no more guns, free money for all, etc.
Reality hit them square in their horse-faced AOC-like teeth, and now they want a bigger commie. And if Commie Kamala doesn't deliver, they will want her head on a pike too.
The Dems are 100% ran by the communists now, who want those that aren't full-blown members of that ideology purged.

No surprise. He is a total fraud, as is this entire administration.

I am convinced that there is no real metric of presidential approval.. Every report is agenda driven not data driven.

Following up on #8, The Gullibles with their incoherent mental structures will always want: something else. It is possible for them to have an object of hatred, the Reviled Other, but not possible for them to have a constructive and consistent goal. This is the political strategy of the dim, a rolling hatred without the ability to discern value.

Pay attention to the (recently more evident and increasing day-by-day) drip - drip - drip criticism of Biden from the main stream media, which is no coincidence. The main stream media - not very subtly - are assisting the far left Democrats to get rid of Biden sooner then originally planned. Too many folks, including even Biden-loving Democrats, are taking notice of Biden's incompetence and weakness.

"Trump had only 36% approval 4 years ago...". Yet had just been elected with a clear majority in most states. A race the same polling companies were at least 15points off in projecting. Just the Biden drop they cite in this similarly skewed poll would have been enough for a Trump landslide in Jan. Frankly IF they had covered the "Real" Biden and his plans, these same collapsing numbers would have appeared in Nov of last year.

FTA: 'Biden is still more popular than his Republican predecessor Donald Trump ever was: 55% of adults approve of Biden's performance in office and 65%'
Hold on fella - Was that poll taken at Trump's last rally or Joe Biden's last rally?

That he's not radical enough is funny, and should be used by every Republican running for office in 2022.
"Hey, they don't have any moderates left over on that side, as their base sees them as too conservative. Don't be fooled again by some who claim to be moderate democrat"
And, Kamala Harris has a hostile work environment issue in her office, it seems. People generally get reprimanded or fired for such violations in corporate America.
Those companies supporting her, and the democrats, might want to tread carefully with their zealous support as it too would reflect on them, and their company.
It already reflects on their choice of her as VP, as they surely knew of similar issue when she was in CA, right?

Thinking back before the election, here on the east coast of Florida I don’t recall seeing any billboards or bumper stickers for biteme. I don’t think there is a chance in he** that he won the election.

He has now swung so far left, and appears to be so mentally off the rails, it is no surprise that more moderate Dems are disapproving of him. This is what i had hoped for.

This is from liberal Reuters. The foreign press favors liberalism, so will frame every story from that angle.

What's to erode? Joe Dementia was coming in fifth and sixth in primary after primary till Clyburn the 'Savior' stepped in and fixed South Carolina for him. When the fixers tire of him and have better options he will be gone.

This is a poll of people who have barricaded themselves away from the truth, or at the very least, the "other side of the story."
President Trump could not seem to be able to figure out a way to break through that blackout of his accomplishments over against the Democrat restatement of those or simply never mentioning them and instead subsuming it all in the endless scandals, most created out of the proverbial rotten whole cloth. His communications staff did not serve him well.
Attacking media as they had cameras trained on him during rallies, and then ridiculing them as they turned them off, was really just a Pyrrhic victory. Trump suffered in the polls et al for the ignorance of a good half of the voting public, the Dems.
Our candidates must find a way to break through that ignorance barricade. This is not easy. A local paper, long-time "Republican" paper, original editor was a real Conservative and lived up to the journalist code, over the past several years has deteriorated into the anti-Trump "moderate" paper once the younger generation took control of the masthead.
Just one example, President Trump said he'd set our military the task to destroy ISIS and so they did. During rallies he would just mention this as one of many examples of his achievements. But none of this was repeated in the lefty "news" outlets, even in NH, home of the tragically, horrifically beheaded James Foley.
We need to find a way to break through in a macro sense, and individually with those we know-- this is really hard. I have a couple of people close to me who may listen, but WILL NOT HEAR, CAN NOT "GET IT". It's like their brains have ossified.
Every time we see such a poll, keep in mind that it is mostly a measure of ignorance, and how much work "our side" needs to do to get the facts and truth out to the boarder public.
And never give up.

Old Joe cannot ride on Trump's successful policies much longer. As Leftists policies take hold, even Dems feel the economic pinch of rapidly rising prices.
