Biden’s approval slumps after a slew of crises: AP-NORC poll

WASHINGTON (AP) – President Joe Biden’s popularity has slumped – with half of Americans now approving and half disapproving of his leadership.

That’s according to a new poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.

Support for the president who pledged to bring the country together and restore competence in government has declined after a slew of challenges in recent weeks at home and abroad.

Fifty percent now say they approve of Biden, while 49% disapprove.

Fifty-four percent approved in August, and 59% did in July.

Since July, Biden’s approval rating has dipped slightly among Democrats and among independents who don’t lean toward either party.
