https://www.cnn.com/2021/02/21/politics/biden-approval-poll-of-the-week/index.htmlPoll of the week: A Quinnipiac University poll finds that President Joe Biden's job approval rating stands at 52% to a disapproval rating of 38% among registered voters.
Biden's average approval rating is 55% and his average disapproval rating is 39%, which makes for an average net approval rating of +16 points.
What's the point: Nothing ever seemed to shake Donald Trump's job approval rating. It moved less than any other president in the polling era.
So far, Biden's proven to be even steadier than Trump. And very much unlike Trump, people seem to actually like what Biden is doing.

disapprove if he ended Covid, tomorrow, reduced the jobless rate to 2%, and got a $4000/person benefit through congress. On the basis of their unwavering support for dump, they prefer incompetence to competence and dishonesty to honesty. They'd rather see nothing done that approve positive achievement. That is to say, they're conservatives.

The rest are filthy rich and don't want to have them tax their overblown back accounts.
