Biden Blames Sinking Popularity on Poor Mental Health of Americans

Last Updated on June 21, 2022

President Joe Biden’s polling is hitting all-time lows as inflation continues to rise and fear of a recession is increasing amongst Americans.

The Democrat president is currently polling with a 32% approval rate, with 57% disapproving of Biden’s leadership, according to the latest CIVIQS poll.

This disapproval rate is the highest Biden has faced throughout his entire presidency. In one state is Biden polling at above a 50 percent approval rate. In Hawaii, the president is polling at 52 percent.

Ten different states have Biden’s approval rate below 24 percent, which is similar to Nixon’s polling before his 1974 resignation.

The President, speaking with the Associated Press, wrote off his low polling to be the result of mentally unwell Americans.

“As for the overall American mindset, Biden said, “People are really, really down.”

“Their need for mental health in America has skyrocketed because people have seen everything upset,” Biden continued. “Everything they’ve counted on upset. But most of it’s the consequence of what happened, what happened as a consequence of the, the COVID crisis.”

Responding to economists’ claims that the U.S. is progressing towards a recession, the President said, “First of all, it’s not inevitable. Secondly, we’re in a stronger position than any nation in the world to overcome this inflation.”
Biden refused to take responsibility or be held accountable for any cause of inflation. “If it’s my fault, why is it the case in every other major industrial country in the world that inflation is higher? You ask yourself that? I’m not being a wise guy,” he said.
Rep. Lance Gooden (R-TX) slammed Biden for his inflation comments. “Inflation is higher in the U.S. than in the U.K. Inflation is higher in the U.S. than in China. Inflation is higher in the U.S. than in Germany. Inflation is higher in the U.S. than in Canada. Don’t believe Joe Biden‘s lies,” Gooden tweeted.

House Republicans echoed a similar sentiment. “The Biden administration has claimed inflation is “temporary” and a “high-class problem.” In reality, inflation has skyrocketed because of Biden’s Far-Left agenda. #Bidenflation is a tax on ALL Americans.”
