In a jaw-dropping revelation, a brand-new CNN poll, fresh off the press, delivers a stunning blow to President Joe Biden’s approval ratings. The shockwave extends even into his own party, as an astonishing 67 percent of Democratic and Democratic-leaning voters now demand an alternative candidate. Across the nation, Biden’s job approval rating plummets to a mere 39 percent among all surveyed Americans, with an astonishing 58 percent expressing grave concerns that his policies have exacerbated economic woes in the United States.
These staggering statistics mirror recent polls scrutinizing Biden’s economic performance. Just a month ago, an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll unveiled that a resounding 63 percent of Americans disapprove of his handling of the economy.
But that’s not the whole story—President Biden once again grapples with widespread anxieties about his age. An astonishing 73 percent of the nation shares profound reservations about the 80-year-old president’s ability to maintain his physical and mental vigor. What’s more, a jaw-dropping 76 percent harbor doubts about his capacity to serve another full term if granted reelection.
In electrifying head-to-head face-offs with potential 2024 GOP contenders, Biden finds himself locked in a statistical deadlock, with one exception. The only Republican candidate to surge ahead of Biden is former U.N. Ambassador Nikki Haley, commanding 49 percent to Biden’s 43 percent.
Even former President Donald Trump is nipping at Biden’s heels, leading by a mere one percentage point, with a tally of 47 percent to 46 percent. A recent Wall Street Journal poll suggests that if this showdown materializes today, they would stand neck and neck at 46 percent.
In this groundbreaking CNN Poll, Trump firmly retains his preeminent position as the leading Republican presidential candidate, securing the unwavering support of 52 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independent voters. Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis follows, capturing 18 percent, trailed by former Vice President Mike Pence and Nikki Haley at 7 percent each, with entrepreneur Vivek Ramaswamy at 6 percent.
This historic CNN Poll, conducted by SSRS from August 25th to 31st among a randomly selected national sample of 1,503 adults, packs a seismic punch. Results for the entire sample boast a mere margin of sampling error of just plus or minus 3.5 points.
