Two weeks after President Joe Biden announced his reelection campaign, a Washington Post poll has put his approval rating at 36 percent, among the lowest ratings ever recorded for a president. Biden faces a conundrum—nearly every issue he'd like to tout his success on has been an unmitigated disaster.
The economy? Inflation has devoured Americans' paychecks, leaving them with historically low confidence in the administration's ability to steer the economy.
Immigration? Border Patrol agents are expecting hundreds of thousands of migrants to rush the border in the coming days when the administration lets Trump-era protocols expire.
Crime? It's surged in cities across the country.
It's no wonder Democrats are wondering if they have any better options in 2024.
