A new AP-NORC poll shows Joe Biden is enjoying an early presidential honeymoon, with 60% of Americans approving of his job performance thus far and even more backing his handling of the coronavirus pandemic.

Trump argued that the U.S. economy couldn’t afford the hit that came from enacting restrictions on business and travel. The worst fears of economists were averted as Republican-led states followed Trump’s lead and resisted restrictions, but COVID-19 cases skyrocketed.

In a reflection of the partisanship that continues to rage in the U.S., many Americans’ views of the economy have flipped since. In December, 67% of Republicans and just 15% of Democrats described the economy as good. Now, 35% of Republicans and 41% of Democrats describe the economy positively. There’s been little change in overall growth or unemployment over that time.

Biden’s handling of the pandemic may well determine the course of his presidency and the political capital he has to pursue significant legislation on other matters. Democrats are working urgently to tee up bills addressing

Beebs4Life Because the former guy did such a terrible job.

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😅🤣😅😅😅😅😅🤣

Yeah right 🤣

The last guy never got above 50%, he lost an incumbency, the house twice, the Senate, and the gop thinks he’s their way forward 🥴

salut a tous . 60% ? des personnes présente lors de ses meeting ?

Why are people still believing these polls?

I'm sure he's the bees knees compared to the last guy, but by my reckoning, migrant kids are still in detention, the megalomaniacal Space Force is going ahead, and the US is entering the 20th year of war in the Middle East. So, you'll excuse me if I don't throw any confetti.

60% of Democrats

I don’t believe that’s true

A mon opinion c'est BFMTV qui a fait le sondage. On a les mêmes pour micron. Pathétique. Ils les font pour eux ou ils pensent qu'on est cons à ce point là? intox merdias

TruePG718 This is pure

I love polls. One says 60% another says 53%. Polls are about as accurate and trusting as the last presidential election.

OMG, people are morons!!

Good! He has been working very hard and is doing a good job!

One of many polls. Haven't you learned anything about polls, yet? The Monmouth University Poll has different results. Would be nice, if you reconciled polls and not just choose the one you like.

kfdmnews Bahahahah this must be part of free entertainment program fakenews

Where is Biden...?

Que de gros mensonge 😡

Lol, omg ..was that poll conducted by your AP so called reporter, Jon Lemire who went on socialist msn tv and said there was no evidence of violence from all the riots in the summer?!?!🤮🤮🤮

Cue a thread full of 'I don't believe in polls because they don't agree with me'

fakepoll

While I generally agree with most all of what he's done so far, I also am also keenly aware that he's coming in right after we had arguably the worst President in (at least modern) history. As such, that backlighting is going to make him look good under almost any circumstances.

Well he did get the death counter off CNN and he did get the mailstream media to stop blaiming Covid deaths on the president 👀👀

🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

How did he handle the pandemic in a month and a half I guess there were no riots in the streets so people feel ok LOL.

😂

Polls are no longer relevant

Bull fucking shit.

Handling of the pandemic? He’s been in office for 1 month!!! 😂😂😂😂 Also, what pandemic?

I wonder who is actually doing the job? We all saw him. We know it's definitely NOT Joe Biden. He can barely put 2 sentences together. This is probably Jill.

Classic example of why media isn’t trusted

Quand y a de la gêne y a pas de plaisir, hein Joe ?

Euh vous avez eu ça ou car en fait Biden on le voit pas il peut même pas faire une conférence de presse tout seul. Arrêtez vos conneries c'est 90% qui se disent mais ou est Biden ?

🤣🤣🤣🤣

So far the puppet masters have done their job.

Claro que sí

who did they poll the chinese government ?

STFU pravda.

How did he 'handle' the pandemic?

Lewis Prothero has been saying how much better of a president he is.

We should not play politics with a man like Joe Biden, who is clearly a man working for the American people. He will not change. He didn’t become the leader he is when elected. He has grown slowly over the years to a person we can all respect.

🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣🤣 this may be the biggest joke I've ever seen. Ive seen dozens of complaints from democrats and I know most Republicans oppose. If this isn't fake news idk what is

Record 2.4 million vaccine doses administered today.

I'm gonna have to circle back on this one.

😂

He is fucking up this relief bill- get control of your party smh

Much of that support is not engaging in BS back and forth with issues like potato head and Dr. Seuss.

60% of Americans are dumbasses fck MAGA too btw 😉

In over 200 years never had to put an armed force around the capital in order to protect it. Now that the Democrats have moved in they want to keep a round the clock rabbit action force check them from what no one knows. This is the People’s house and I should have access to it.

Honeymoon is over & the child support checks are late. Big surprise.

This seems like more of a reflection on poor journalism than what Americans actually think. Biden's claiming unity while pushing a radical agenda that increases the political divide, and his press secretary won't answer any hard questions.

Eat your heart out Trump. DonaldJTrumpJr be sure to tell your dad.

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Not believable that 60% approve of this idiot.

Why frame it like that?

I think we’ve seen, time and time again, just how accurate these polls are.

No way this is accurate

Competence goes a long way

Crises, like a pandemic, do that.

the only thing that changed is the tone of the headlines, the press not instilling hostility onto the country as they did with his predecessor.
