Biden’s approval rating continues to hit new lows.
His average approval in RCP, which includes left-wing polls, has hit 43.9%.
President Joe Biden’s approval rating is continuing to sink and is currently underwater completely, Saturday’s RealClearPolitics’ average of polls showed.
Saturday’s average, which includes polling from Reuters/Ipsos, Rasmussen Reports, Economist/YouGov, Politico/Morning Consult, CNN, the Trafalgar Group, and Quinnipiac, shows Biden in the negatives by 8.2 percent.
Overall, 52.1 percent disapprove, while 43.9 percent approve. Every recent individual poll included shows Biden in the negatives, with an exception of the CNN poll, which has him tied.
The continually sinking numbers follow a number of key issues mounting throughout Biden’s presidency, including his botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, which saw hundreds of Americans left behind. The incompetence resulted in the death of 13 U.S. servicemembers and two American toddlers who were just two and three years old.
Due to Biden’s failing political capital he is now being forced to lean on Obama to try and save his presidency.
President Biden appears to be leaning more on his former boss as the White House comes under increased pressure to improve the nation’s economy and outlook on the future of the Democratic Party.
Former President Obama will attend the United Nations COP26 climate summit in Glasgow, Scotland, early next month to highlight the “important progress” made with climate change since the Paris Agreement took effect. Meanwhile, President Biden and his Cabinet participate in the World Leader Summit in Glasgow on Nov. 1 and 2 at the beginning of the 26th Conference of the Parties to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change.
It is unclear whether Obama will participate in any meetings or events with Biden and his Cabinet officials. Earlier this year, the White House said Biden and Obama spoke “regularly” about a “range of issues” as well as personal matters but did not disclose the frequency of those conversations.
Obama will also campaign with Virginia gubernatorial candidate former Gov. Terry McAuliffe in the state capital city of Richmond a week from Saturday, on Oct. 23.
