Jimmy Carter 2.0: Joe Biden’s Presidency is in Shambles

Inflation is soaring near 40-year highs, gas prices set new records daily, and Joe Biden’s approval rating is at historic lows. Those facts, paired with the country’s worsening economic situation and voters’ pessimism, are drawing parallels to President Jimmy Carter that Biden is desperate to avoid. Under Carter’s leadership, Democrats suffered significant losses in the 1978 midterm elections, and Carter himself lost his reelection bid in 1980.

Politico: President Joe Biden and his aides have grown increasingly frustrated by their inability to turn the tide against a cascade of challenges threatening to overwhelm the administration. . .

In crisis after crisis, the White House has found itself either limited or helpless in its efforts to combat the forces pummeling them. Morale inside 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. is plummeting amid growing fears that the parallels to Jimmy Carter, another first-term Democrat plagued by soaring prices and a foreign policy morass, will stick.

As crises “overwhelm” the Biden-Harris administration, reporting suggests morale is “plummeting” among White House aides as the midterm elections approach. Democrats on Capitol Hill are anxious that Joe Biden’s tanking poll numbers will bring down vulnerable House and Senate Democrats.

Fox News: The Biden White House is reportedly worried that the parallels to former President Jimmy Carter’s presidency are going to stick as gas prices and inflation continue to increase, and the president’s approval rating remains low. . .

Biden is reportedly very frustrated that his approval rating has dipped below former President Donald Trump’s, who Biden believes is the “worst president.”

On the campaign trail, Republicans are eager to tie Biden to Carter — and voters’ feelings about his presidency.

Bottom Line: The Biden-Harris administration is overwhelmed with multiple crises, Americans are increasingly stressed about their economic situation, and Biden’s approval rating is at record lows. The parallels between Joe Biden and Jimmy Carter grow more apparent every day.
