Biden’s approval slips to 38%, near the lowest of his presidency, new poll says

Will Biden try to buy voter approval with increased Federal spending? That would be a recipe for disaster.

President Joe Biden's approval rating dipped in a new poll released Thursday, approaching an all-time low for that survey as Americans give the Democrat poor marks on how he has handled the economy.
Only 38% of respondents said they approve of the job Biden is doing, versus 61% who said they disapprove, according to the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll. The president's approval in March fell from 45% in February and 41% in January, according to the survey.
The AP-NORC poll was conducted from March 16 to March 20 and has a margin of error of 4 percentage points.
The numbers reflect Americans' dissatisfaction with how the president has handled key issues, including the economy and foreign policy. Biden has aimed in recent months to highlight economic plans he helped to pass and implement during his first term as he gears up for a potential run for reelection next year.
The new poll suggests he may have more work to do to sell his first term in office as a success. Less than a third of Americans, 31%, approve of Biden's handling of the economy, according to the poll.
Even Democrats, 76% of whom approve of the overall job Biden is doing, are less supportive of his handling of the economy. Only 63% of respondents from his party approve of how he is managing the economy, the survey found.
It's a leap from Republicans though: Only 4% approve of what Biden is doing as president, and 3% approve his handling of the economy.
He received slightly better marks on foreign policy, as 39% of Americans offered their approval.
Americans are also less optimistic about the direction of the country than they were last month. Only 21% expressed optimism, down from 28% a month ago.
Biden's all-time low approval of 36% in the AP-NORC poll was in July of last year. At the time, Americans were increasingly dissatisfied with the state of the economy as gas prices soared. The low mark also came on the heels of the Supreme Court's Dobbs decision to overturn Roe v. Wade and the federal right to an abortion.

What's interesting is that Trump doesn't provide a distraction any longer. Biden is running out of scapegoats.
WTF are you talking about?
The former 'president' just threatened to beat Bragg in the head with a baseball bat, like the thug that he is, and said there would be death and destruction if he was charged.
Right now, Biden making a statement like that would be laughed off the stage. Biden can't hide behind Trump any longer; no matter what Trump does or does not do.
Is Biden President or ain't he? Who's in charge? If Trump is still in charge then why the hell do we need Biden?
How many conservatives on NT have flat out condemned Trump? It appears to be zero. They all hedge, do whatabouts, keep their options open, etc.
Trumpism is alive and well.
Again, WTF are you talking about? President Biden isn't hiding behind the turd and he's not a degenerate psychopath like the turd.
Why would President Biden make any type of remark about or like this batshit crazy thug?
What makes you think the big fat turd is in charge?
It doesn't appear to be zero, it is zero.
You have the constant defense of the indefensible and my new accurate term/expression - baffling bullshit.
It's mind boggling.
I have expressed my contempt of him.
Source? Outside of hysterical leftist pundits and media desperately trying to read into what Trump really said.
So no beating Bragg in the head with a baseball bat. Sure looks like he is calling for a mass protest; no mention of violence either. Not to be confused with BLM/Antifa "Mostly peaceful protests" during the "Summer of Love". Leftists are just so easily confused; now if Trump would have said any of these things you might have a point.
Things must be so confusing in leftist land.
Biden seems to possess many of the same self serving traits as Trump. Biden is just as prone to bragging about himself as is Trump. Biden will use over-the-top language that stretches the limits of truth just as Trump does. Biden seeks public attention and praise just as Trump does.
Didn't you watch Biden's State of the Union address? Biden makes over-the-top claims about MAGA. And for Biden (and Democrats, in general) MAGA is only Trump.
If it's Trump's fault then who is in charge? When Trump is the scapegoat then Trump has more influence and power than Biden. Making Trump the scapegoat means Trump is more consequential than Biden. And Trump is no longer in office. What does that say about Biden being President?
You still conflate lesser of two evils as supporting Trump.
I can't stand Trump; but if he is the Republican nominee I will definitely vote for him over any POS Democrat. Democrats have burned all of their bridges, and sowed the fields with salt. They are worse than Trump at every level.
I am hoping that DeSantis can dethrone Trump; but it doesn't look like it will be happening.
When are you going to stop defending Brandon the Human Fuck Up Machine? That is the real question.
There's no comparison and you make no sense so there's no talking to you either.
I don't read your ranting garbage nonsense so why do you waste your time?
I am heart broken./S
This is an open forum and others do read it.
If you don't like don't respond.
Morons will do what morons will do . . .
If you don't like it don't respond
You haven't really noticed the contempt I have for Trump now??
How much condemnation do you want. I don't think any right winger here would ever vote for him again.
Your president is failing in the ratings and will not be reelected...no wonder you're projecting, deflecting, and denying reality.
lol, you have all said you would vote for him if the Dem candidate is Biden. That is not "never" by any stretch.
You could away go away and shut if you don't like the comments here.
You sound unhappy, angry, lonely, bitter, and sad.
No John, I have never said I would vote for him again. And I won't.
But Trump won't be running again. Wait and see.
Prove it John.
Or your statement is just more TDS driven nonsense.
True, I mean look at you.
