President Biden’s approval rating remains stuck at 42% and three-quarters of voters are “very concerned” about inflation, according to a poll Thursday that underscored Mr. Biden’s political challenges.
Mr. Biden’s approval is level with the rating he received in the same NewsNation/Decision Desk HQ poll last month, signaling a lack of improvement despite efforts to stabilize the economy and manage other crises like COVID-19 and Russian President Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine.
Nearly 58% of voters disapprove of his performance.
Inflation stands out as a top concern for voters, with more than seven 10 people citing it on a list of four issues compared to 15% who cited crime, 10% who cited COVID-19 and fewer than 4% pointed to unemployment.
