Reuters/Ipsos Poll Says President Biden's Approval Rating At 46 Percent

U.S. President Joe Biden speaks about Afghanistan at the White House in Washington

Daily Mail: Biden's approval rating plunges SEVEN points to its lowest EVER level after Kabul falls to Taliban: Voters say his handling of the Afghan crisis is the worst of any president since the war began 

* Biden's popularity took a battering after the Taliban captured Kabul 

* New Reuters/Ipsos poll puts his approval rating at 46 percent - his lowest so far 

* It comes after withering criticism of his handling of chaotic Kabul evacuation 

* Thousands of Americans remain in need of rescue 

* His handling of Afghan conflict is judged worse than George W Bush who sent troops into Afghanistan and triggered 20 years of bloodshed 

President Biden's approval plunged seven points to its lowest level so far in a poll published on Tuesday, as voters said his handling of the Afghan war was worse even than President George W. Bush. 

The Reuters/Ipsos poll was taken on Monday, when Biden faced growing anger at his decision to stay away from the White House through a weekend when the U.S. embassy in Kabul was evacuated and Taliban fighters closed on the Afghan capital. 

The national opinion poll found that 46 percent of American adults approved of his performance in office, marking his lowest level in the poll since he was inaugurated.
