Biden is preparing for battle with congressional Republicans over raising the debt ceiling and says his approval numbers are fine, but polls show his support slipping among nearly all corners of the electorate.“Every major president who won reelection, their polling numbers were where mine are now,” Biden said in a Friday evening MSNBC interview, implying he's teed up for a second term despite the numbers.
In his Friday evening interview, Biden pointed to the news, though not the news media, for his negative numbers. “Ironically, 'everything is negative' is actually an argument against his reelection,” RNC spokesman Tommy Pigott said. “Biden is struggling to make an argument for his reelection because his record is a disaster. Americans don’t want him to 'finish the job.'"
"There are a lot of things in this survey that need additional data points before I can confirm the numbers we see here approximate the real-world numbers," she said."I would caution people to understand that we are talking about a wide margin of error when we're talking about African American voters."There were wide discrepancies in the poll based on party affiliation, though they still skewed away from voter confidence in Biden.
