It's Confirmed: Joe Biden Now Officially Worse Than Jimmy Carter
By Nick Arama | Dec 22, 2021 9:15 AM ET
We’ve been covering how Joe Biden’s approval ratings have completely cratered, particularly when it comes to his handling of the economy. Earlier today we noted how his ratings have taken another hit, especially among independents.
Now, Biden has officially hit perhaps one of the worst measures that you can hit — that’s the “Worse than Jimmy Carter” measure. Historically, Carter has always represented the lowest of the low when you’re talking about the economy because of the horrible inflation he faced at the time and his failure to do anything effective to address it. He also made things worse with his “malaise speech” — a speech where he said there was a crisis in confidence.
A new CNN poll is finding that Biden’s numbers are now worse than Carter’s at the same time. When even CNN is noting it, you know how bad it is.
In the latest CNN/SSRS poll, Biden comes in with a 44% approval rating to 55% disapproval rating among registered voters on his economic performance. This makes for a -9 point net approval rating. The average of all polls taken in December is quite similar with Biden at -13 points on the economy.
To put that in perspective, the average president at this point in the last 44 years (since we have been polling on the topic) had a net economic approval rating of +5 points. That means Biden’s is 18 points worse than the average.
