President Biden\u2019s approval rating has fallen sharply since last spring. New polls from ABC News and The Washington Post illustrate Americans’ frustration with the president, with criticism of Biden\u2019s economic performance sparking the drop in approval. According to the polls, the President\u2019s overall job approval rating is 41% while 53% disapprove.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The drop in Biden\u2019s approval rating has come simultaneously alongside challenges for the Democratic party. 62% of voters say the Democratic party is out of touch with the concerns of most Americans, this can be largely attributed to the Democrats consistent advocacy for Critical Race Theory \u2014 a curriculum that most conservative, and even many liberal-leaning Americans are skeptical of. If the Democrats continue to disregard the input of parents regarding their children\u2019s education, Republicans might come away with a record breaking victory in the November 2022 midterms.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Nonetheless, economic failures remain the primary reason Americans disapprove of Biden and the Democrats. Notably, inflation has increased to the highest levels in 31 years, and as a result a whopping 70% of Americans say the economy is in bad shape, only 58% said the same just last spring. Biden\u2019s approval for handling the economy has already fallen 6 points since September, with his overall approval of the economy down 39%.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
