 Biden approval rating jumps to its highest level in two months in Reuters-Ipsos poll
by Jared Gans - 08/10/22 9:17 AM ET

President Biden’s approval rating rose to its highest level in two months in a Reuters-Ipsos poll released on Tuesday.

Biden’s approval rating rose to 40 percent, up 2 percentage points, while his disapproval rating fell to 55 percent.

The increase is partially fueled by more Democrats approving of Biden’s job performance. The poll showed Biden’s approval among Democrats rose 9 points from last month to 78 percent.

Only 12 percent of Republicans approved of Biden’s performance.

Biden’s approval rating in the poll hit its lowest point in May at 36 percent, and it has remained below 50 percent since August 2021, according to the poll.

The president’s improved performance in the poll comes as he has attained a series of legislative and other successes.

Biden successfully pushed for Congress to pass the CHIPS and Science Act to provide billions of dollars to the domestic semiconductor industry and the Honoring Our PACT Act to expand health care for veterans exposed to toxins and burn pits while serving.

The Senate passed the Inflation Reduction Act on Sunday after Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) reached a deal on the climate, health care and tax package, and the House plans to take up the bill this week.

The Biden administration also successfully conducted a drone strike that killed Ayman al-Zawahiri, the leader of al Qaeda and a key planner in the 9/11 attacks, at the end of last month.

Democrats are seeking to avoid or minimize the historical trend that a new president’s party loses seats in Congress in the midterm elections and have expressed hope that the administration and party’s successes could improve their prospects in November.

Respondents to the poll listed the economy as the most important issue for the 48th straight week in the Reuters poll, with 32 percent ranking it first.

The poll was conducted with 1,005 adults and has a credibility interval of 4 points.

The other polls have crept up around 40%.  COVID sympathy, most likely.  This is still ominous heading into a midterm.

Meh, just noise. Poll aggregates are better. RCP still has him in the shitter.

More likely a dead-cat bounce from the passage of the Inflation Increase Act.  He "got something done" which increases favorables amongst his cult members; that'll disappear once reality continues to bite them in the behind.

Zero percent inflation and gas down a dollar.  Our Joe is Getting It Done!

Dead terrorist bounce.

Dead terrorist bounce.

That, too!

Ominous for the dems.  I would expect the generic ballot to tilt back in favor of Republicans if he hangs out in the low 40s.

Problem is Biden isn't running for Prez this election. A manipulated dead cat bounce isn't going to help the Dem schmuckbag Congressional candidate running in their district, and it's delusional for the media to think it will.

[mountaineer]

Just think how popular he'll be, once he's cured cancer! (Well, after he returns from his beach vacation, anyway).

For some, a bear shit in the woods is proof Biden is on an upsurge, for others all it takes is a single rigged poll or a rigged election.

Some can convince themselves that washing dishes in fresh shiite is how to get dishes real clean, most of us remain unconvinced though.  Democrats are just not like us.
