NPR: Biden's Approval Rating Hits A New Low After The Afghanistan Withdrawal
Amid the chaos of the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan, President Biden's approval rating slid to just 43% in the latest NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll.
That is down 6 percentage points from a survey conducted in July and is the lowest mark for Biden in the poll since taking office.
The decline is principally due to independents — just 36% of them approve of the job he's doing, a 10-point drop.
That a majority of independents now disapprove of his performance is bad news for Biden and Democrats. They're a key swing group, one Biden won in 2020 but who now think he's off track.

WNU Editor: The shocking thing about the NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist poll that says 43% approve of President Biden's performance is that they over-sampled Democrats by 7% !!!!. In reality, if the NPR Marist poll discounts this over sampling, President Biden's approval numbers are probably in the mid-30s.
