A new poll produced by The The Daily Mail has put the final nail in the coffin for President Joe Biden’s legacy, revealing that Americans believe he’s the worst president to grace the Oval Office in the last 5 decades. Do you realize the total bag of suck one’s administration has to be in order to be ranked worse than former Presidents Barack Obama and Jimmy Carter? For a long, long time, nobody thought anyone would ever be worse than Carter. Obama said hold my beer. Biden said hold my keg.
It’s not difficult to understand where the animosity for Biden comes from. He screwed up our economy, which President-elect Donald Trump spent four years trying to put back on track. He allowed millions of illegal migrants to flood the country, leading to a serious strain on resources and spikes in crime in major cities across the nation. How about his pouring gasoline on several geopolitical situations that could, at any moment, explode into World War III? Or the fact that he blanket pardoned his son after promising he would never do such a thing?

Carter, defeated after a single term, struggled with soaring inflation and the Iran hostage crisis, while Nixon resigned in disgrace following the Watergate scandal. Yet voters now view Biden’s presidency as more detrimental. In the poll conducted by J.L. Partners involving 1,006 registered voters, participants were asked to rank the last nine U.S. presidents from best to worst. Joe Biden found himself at the bottom of the list, deemed the least effective leader in the past 47 years. A striking 44% of respondents ranked him among the worst two presidents, while only 14% considered him one of the top two, resulting in a net score of -30. This placed him lower than both Nixon, who had a net score of -25, and Donald Trump, with -15. James Johnson, cofounder of J.L. Partners, described the results as ‘diabolical’ for Biden.
The poll also revealed that over half of American voters disapproved of Biden’s decision to pardon his son, which further exacerbated his already low approval ratings. The controversial move led to a decline of four additional points, bringing his approval rating down to 37 percent.
“There’s always a recency bias and as Joe Biden is the incumbent, he starts off at a disadvantage there,” James Johnson, cofounder of J.L. Partners, remarked. “But regardless of that, these numbers are worse than I expected.”
“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, in their view, it qualifies him to be the worst president in modern history,” Johnson then said. “And that’s the position in which he leaves office. From the man who beat Trump to the man who let him back in, and who voters feel has been fundamentally a bad president.”
Just imagine you’ve spent your entire life serving in politics hoping one day to become the president and establish your legacy, only to have it completely and utterly destroyed by how badly you did while in office. If the man is cognitively aware enough to ponder this reality, how depressed do you think he is?
All in all, let’s hope the president-elect can, once again, clean up the mess left behind by the Democratic Party.
