A recent Monmouth University Poll reveals that President Biden's economic strategies haven't resonated positively with a majority of Americans. A mere 30% believe the U.S. is outperforming other nations in its post-pandemic recovery. The poll, conducted among 910 adults, shows a significant disapproval rating of 62% regarding Biden's handling of inflation, contrasting sharply with a 34% approval rating. His management of jobs and unemployment fares slightly better, with 48% disapproving and 47% approving. However, transportation and energy infrastructure receive a higher disapproval rating of 51% compared to 43% approval.

While Democrats largely offered positive assessments of the President's economic performance, Republicans and Independents expressed more negative views. Only 26% of Independents approve of Biden's approach to inflation, with 41% approving his handling of jobs and unemployment, and 37% his management of transportation and energy infrastructure. Poll director Patrick Murray noted that despite the administration's promotion of "Bidenomics," public sentiment remains largely unchanged, with Americans hesitant to credit the President for economic progress.

Overall, Biden's job approval stands at 44%, with 52% disapproving. This rating remains consistent with figures from recent months. A concerning statistic reveals that only 25% of respondents believe the country is moving in the right direction, while 68% feel the opposite. This poll comes as the President and his administration actively promote "Bidenomics" to highlight their economic policies. However, a recent tweet from Biden's account claiming higher real wages for average American workers compared to pre-pandemic levels was flagged by Twitter’s Community Notes for containing a factual error, indicating that real wages adjusted for inflation are currently lower.

Vice President Kamala Harris also faces low approval ratings, with only 40% of respondents expressing approval compared to 52% disapproval. The Monmouth University Poll, conducted between July 12th and 17th via phone, online, and text, carries a margin of error of +/- 4.9 percentage points.
