KABOOM! Biden's Poll Numbers Slip Below 40%

Biden’s approval rating is in free fall!

In fact, he  has now crashed through the 40 percent barrier in a new YouGov/Economist poll that has Biden at 39 percent approval. 

Biden has been losing ground for the past month in the wake of the debacle in Afghanistan and the spread of the Delta variant (with a 300% increase in COVID cases) that has belied Biden’s campaign promise to crush the pandemic. 

Biden, who had already lost independents (35% favorable, 56% unfavorable) is now losing support from Democrats, dropping from support of well over 90 percent to the mid-70s. In fact, many Democrats are now saying they're sorry they voted for him. Even among those ever-precious white women with college degrees, he's barely hanging on.

Here's the group-by-group breakdown with favorables first, followed by unfavorables:

Overall: 39/50 Men: 36/53 Women: 42/46 White men no degree: 28/61 White women w/ degree: 53/42 Black: 65/26 Hispanic: 41/36 Dems: 77/15 GOP: 9/89 Indie: 35/56
