BRUTAL: CNN Forced to Admit Biden Polling Worse Than Carter's

In an uncharacteristically honest segment on CNN’s New Day, anchor John Berman was forced to cover President Biden’s crumbling poll numbers on the economy and inflation.

During the Thursday segment, Berman brought on CNN senior data reporter Harry Enten to discuss the Biden Administration’s polling troubles. Before Enten spoke, Berman posed this question to him: “When we’re talking about Joe Biden in the economy and the polling on it, just how bad is it?”

His answer surely troubled the left-leaning anchor:


Terrible. Terrible. Look, historically, look, we can look at the net approval ratings on the economy since 1977 at this point in a presidency. And that's the approval minus the disapproval on the economy. Look at Joe Biden in 2021. Minus 15 points! He's well underwater. That is even lower than Jimmy Carter was in a CBS News "New York Times" poll at the beginning of January 1978 when he was at minus 8 points. You can see that Biden’s even worse than Trump and Obama were and they were in the negative territories at minus 4 points. When it comes to the economy, there is pretty much nothing good that can be said about Joe Biden's numbers when it comes to the American public.

Berman clearly was stunned by that response. Making a Jimmy Carter comparison is never a good thing, especially for a Democratic president. Naturally, Berman wanted some clarification. Berman wanted to know what more information Enten had which would’ve inspired the dreaded Carter comparison. Enten then obliged:


Look, here's the deal. Why were both of them so down in the trenches? And what you can see is if you ask folks about inflation, is inflation is a serious problem or concern. 84% of Americans say, yes, it is right now. Back in December of 1977 under Jimmy Carter, it was 79%. Inflation is something that can sink a presidency because it’s something that is felt by everybody.
