To make matters even worse for Biden, his standing amongst Independents also dropped by 4%. The same decline happened with American adults, too.
Some political analysts believe what’s hurting Biden most with Democrats is his clear support for Israel. Unlike some folks on the left, the president has straightforwardly condemned Hamas’ attacks on Israel as terrorism.
For certain Democrats with more radical leanings, this doesn’t sit well with them. After all, a percentage of folks on the left have made it clear they view Israel as an “apartheid state” and believe the current events in the Middle East constitute “liberation” for Palestinians.
In even more extreme cases, some left-wing individuals even rallied in support of Hamas.
Time will tell
The president and his allies have developed a longstanding pattern of dismissing polls that don’t work to their benefit.
Biden’s supporters also continue to claim that despite where things currently stand, if the 2024 election ultimately comes down to a rematch of 2020, most Americans will side with the president again.
