Biden's approval rating craters to 30% after brutal week
[NYPOST] President Biden’s approval rating has crashed to just 30%, its lowest mark yet, in a new national poll.

The Civiqs Poll’s daily tracking survey of registered voters found less than a third of Americans giving the thumbs-up to Biden’s on-the-job performance — and a whopping 57% disapproving.

"Joe The Big Guy Biden
...46th president of the U.S. S Joe's wife and daughter weren't killed by a drunk driver. He didn't graduate with three or even two degrees, wasn't in the top half of his law class, and his daddy didn't come home from a hard day's work in the mines and play football with the guys. The NAACP hasn't endorsed him every time he's run....
’s presidency is sinking from a thousand holes in the boat," said GOP consultant Ryan Girdusky.

The poll, released Friday, found Biden deep underwater with voters in every age bracket, every educational level, and both genders. Every one of those groups showed approval rates under 40%, with the youngest voters, age 18 to 34, among the most dissatisfied at a dismal 21%.

In only two states out of 50, deep-blue Hawaii and Vermont, do Biden’s supporters outnumber his detractors.

Democrats and black voters are the two groups still in the president’s corner, the survey found — and not by much.

#1 Civiqs does all polling from people who have volunteered to be polled and affirm that they are registered voters. For each question, a sample of the volunteered is selected. It is done on line.

All people polled have given Civiqs info on age, party affiliation, age, etc. which cuts down on the time needed by the person being polled.

This method seems to result in low approval ratings compared to other methods.

Emerson polling, which tends to produce relatively high Biden approval numbers has a mix of landline and on line people being polled.

Other pollsters use other methods. When Gallup did daily tracking they used land line for many years then mixed land line and cell. Gallup no longer does daily polling.

#2 Polls are useless regarding non elected officials.

#4 Rasmussen polling is not so dramatic, but "Strongly Approve" has gone from 35% to under 20%. I assume those are all the lefty progressives.

"Total Disapprove" has gone from 45% to 60%.

#5 I think the far-left people went to disapprove of him long ago. The remaining approve folks are a mix of out of touch people, forever Democrats and people who are finically corrupted by some aspect of his agenda.

#6  I assume those are all the lefty progressives.
I assume that they are ...lying. They have no incentive to tell the truth when polled and want to tell a "white lie" to make their side look better. ...Or they can't bear to say anything bad about their 'standard bearer' to an outsider -- a very human action.

#7 ...the same sort of behavior that asserts "Communism will work this time!"

#8 Rasmussen methodology uses both telephone interviews and on line. I don't understand how these are merged.

#9 I understand Rasmussen asks the same questions every day, (strongly support, support, etc.) reducing the potential for carefully crafted questions to push the narrative.

#10 Dumb, dumb, dumb. The far left hates Biden. They hate the Democrats. The Democrats hate the far left. It's simple and easy to understand, and I don't get why so many don't seem to comprehend this very simple fact.

#11 I'm surprised his approval rating is that high.

#12 ^ I think it's a given most polls overstate what the dems would consider good news for them.

#13 Polling trends leftward overwhelmingly without the need for content bias by the authors. Conservatives are culturally more private and unwilling to share opinion, skewing even honest polling efforts. Further, most polls use a "weighting" methodology to claim representative opinion, further weighting answers leftward. Note the Cato Institute observation regarding Republicans with a post graduate degree as an exemplar:
"Taking these results together indicates that a significant majority of Americans with diverse political views and backgrounds self‐​censor their political opinions. This large number from across demographic groups suggests withheld opinions may not simply be radical or fringe perspectives in the process of being socially marginalized. Instead many of these opinions may be shared by a large number of people. Opinions so widely shared are likely shaping how people think about salient policy issues and ultimately impacting how they vote..."

Conversely, the most leftist liberals are the most vocal:
"Strong liberals stand out, however, as the only political group who feel they can express themselves. Nearly 6 in 10 (58%) of staunch liberals feel they can say what they believe. However, centrist liberals feel differently. A slim majority (52%) of liberals feel they have to self‐​censor, as do 64% of moderates, and 77% of conservatives. This demonstrates that political expression is an issue that divides the Democratic coalition between centrist Democrats and their left flank."
