“He inherited a terrible situation,” he said. “He’s weaved through it quite well.”
Biden’s approval rating sunk from 45% to 38%, according to a March 23 Associated Press/NORC Center survey of more than 1,000 adults. By comparison, his approval hit a record-low at 36% in July after inflation hit a 40-year high.
“As a country, we’re just getting farther in debt, and he’s just not helping out the situation,” Kevin, of Ohio said as he gave Biden an F.
But a D.C. woman disagreed and gave Biden a B-minus.
“I think economically he has worked hard to limit the inflation,” she said. “Also, I think you can start to see the impact of the construction work and infrastructure investments.”
Inflation has been a focal point during Biden’s presidency as the country has endured soaring prices throughout most of 2022, peaking at 9.1% inflation last June, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics. But while inflation has decreased, only 31% of all respondents approved of Biden’s handling of the economy, according to the March AP-NORC poll.

“I just feel like a lot of the promises he’s made, he hasn’t fulfilled,” Emily told Fox News. She said Biden promised to unify the country during his 2020 campaign and misrepresented himself as a moderate candidate.
“The country is still so divided,” Emily said.
