President Joe Biden hailed the Democrats' 'strong night' in the midterm elections on Wednesday in his first public remarks since voting ended. He also acknowledged that many remain dissatisfied with the country’s direction.

The future of the Senate remained a tossup as votes were counted; potential Democratic losses there could limit or even cut off Biden’s ability to confirm new judges and other administration officials.

Overall, 57% of voters said they had an unfavorable view of Biden. His approval ratings on the economy, energy policy and border security were underwater. Even his handling of Russia, widely seen as a success for Biden as he maintains an international coalition to oppose the invasion of Ukraine, is viewed negatively.

A clear advantage for Biden, who campaigned for office on simply being better than the alternative, is the disdain that his supporters have for his predecessor. Walter said Democrats were able to maintain support in the midterms from voters who believe that “Biden is not living up to their expectations, or they are feeling disappointed or they are feeling disappointed of his stewardship.”“The pressure goes from ‘How is Biden going to explain himself post election?’ to ‘How is Trump going to explain himself?’” she said. “The more intriguing conversations are happening on the Republican side.

When watching this, I thought it was produced by a partisan news source highlighting how horrible of a speaker he is. Then I realized it was the AP....

He's had the best Democratic midterm results in 4 decades. Much fewer House losses than anticipated and the Senate is still in play. Pundits underestimated Joe Biden. Again.

He firmly rejects nearly 67% of Americans …everything you need to know about politicians. This is the exact thought orange man has. Wake up…these people only care about power!

No. Joe. As a democrat I beg you to reconsider.

I am happy w POTUS joltin’ JoeBiden replay. After DevilDonald, America is returni g to sanity. TY PresJRB.

I'm sure these reporters are eager to find out which candidate they'll be representing to the public.

😂

He lost the house and probably the Senate but still thinks he won. So weird. Please run again so you can lose for a second time!

Oh Lord! The woke Joe up. Back to bed, Joey.

Baffon

Biden doesn't get anything, let alone 'it'. 🙄

Go, Joe, go! Democratic world needs You maybe more than ever. There are a lot of threats like MAGA, ruZZia, China, far-rights like Hungarian govt and so on. Don't let them breathing!

But no oil drilling.

This daughter and old fool couldn't get anything even if you put it to him right in front of his cross eyes

.POTUS, imagine the mood if people were made to believe the truth that Inflation is global and not bcos of you. That it is a lot lower bcos of you. Ditto for GasPrices. That GDP high & Economy sound. You need to significantly improve the messaging capabilities in WhiteHouse

100% Dems want to rule us all

America is circling the drain under this guy and American's voted to continue to circle. We are screwed.

I don't know if I'd consider losing the House and potentially the Senate a 'strong night'

Losing the house was a strong night?

Strong night? Lies

How can you celebrate when you lose the House?

Trump is out, DeSantis is the new Republican king. Jeb Bush has spoken. Anyone who supports trump must immediately support the candidate supported by establishment Republicans like Jeb Bush.
