President Joe Biden’s approval rating in May fell to its lowest level in almost two years, Reuters/Ipsos poll found Tuesday, deepening reelection concerns.
Presidents historically need an approval rating around 50 percent to win reelection.
Only 36% approve of Biden, down two points since April. It matches his lowest-ever approval rating in July 2022.
Biden’s sluggish economy for main street was the top issue (23 percent) for Americans, while 21 percent of respondents said political extremism was the top issue, followed by the open border (13 percent).
On the question of who managed the economy better, Trump soared ten points above Biden (40-30 percent).
Trump also held a massive lead on the issue of border security. Trump leads Biden 42 percent to Biden’s paltry 25 percent.
