Joe Biden’s Presidency: A Sour Legacy
Joe Biden’s time in office is ending on a negative note. A recent poll shows just how bad things have gotten. His decision to pardon his son, Hunter Biden, has stirred up even more anger among Americans, damaging trust in an already troubled administration.
Polling Results: Biden Ranked the Worst President
A poll from The Daily Mail, conducted by J.L. Partners, reveals that 44% of registered voters believe Biden ranks among the bottom two U.S. presidents in nearly 50 years. That’s right—he earned a net approval score of -30, putting him lower than Richard Nixon during the Watergate scandal and Jimmy Carter, whose presidency was burdened by inflation and foreign policy blunders. This is not exactly a shining achievement for the Biden administration.

Mismanagement Across the Board
Critics are not holding back when it comes to highlighting Biden’s failures. The federal debt has ballooned under his leadership, and inflation has squeezed the wallets of American families. On top of that, his decision to deplete the Strategic Petroleum Reserve raises serious national security concerns. Let’s not forget the disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan and the worsening crisis at our southern border, which have left many voters feeling disillusioned with his administration.
Biden’s Foreign Policy Troubles
The ongoing conflict between Russia and Ukraine is another sign of Biden’s struggles. His handling of this war has pulled the U.S. into a costly and seemingly endless situation, raising doubts about his skills in foreign policy. Domestically, his Department of Justice seems to have lost its credibility, with many feeling that his attempts to project strength are overshadowed by gaffes and his perceived frailty.
The Controversial Pardon of Hunter Biden
The recent pardon of Hunter Biden stands out as a glaring example of why many see Joe Biden as undermining public trust. This move goes against his own promises to stay out of his son’s legal issues. Over half of voters disapprove of this pardon, and it’s only shaved more points off an already dismal approval rating now sitting at just 37%. How can he expect to lead effectively when so many people are losing faith in him?
Public Sentiment on Biden’s Performance
James Johnson, co-founder of J.L. Partners, summed it up well: “Voters have obviously looked at his age, general conduct in office, his botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, the situation at the southern border, and decided that… it qualifies him to be the worst president in modern history.” This reflects a growing frustration that cannot be ignored.
Biden’s Defining Legacy
Biden’s legacy appears destined to revolve around economic troubles, foreign policy failures, and accusations of partisanship within the Justice Department. For many Americans, his time in office represents what happens when leadership falters. As political landscapes shift, this could pave the way for President-elect Donald Trump to make a significant comeback. From “the man who beat Trump” to “the man who let him back in,” Biden’s presidency may end up being remembered as a turning point for the Republican Party.
