NRCC Poll: Joe Biden’s Approval Drowning in Key Swing Districts

President Joe Biden’s approval in key swing districts is underwater by double digits, a National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) survey released Tuesday revealed.

According to the memo, a majority of voters in battleground districts disapprove of the job Biden is doing — 52 percent. Forty-two percent approve, representing a net approval of -10 percent. 

Additionally, less than half of the 42 percent who approve of Biden, 20 percent, “strongly” approve of his job performance. Meanwhile, 42 percent of the 52 percent who disapprove of Biden do so “strongly.”

Biden is even suffering with his base in terms of enthusiasm. While 85 percent of Democrats approve of his job performance, just 43 percent “strongly” approve.

Biden’s approval rating among independents, specifically, is even more devastating, as they disapprove by a 26-point margin — 31 percent approving and 57 percent disapproving. Of those, 10 percent “strongly” approve of Biden. Far more, 45 percent, “strongly” disapprove. 

Notably, a plurality of voters in these battleground districts oppose Biden’s radical Build Back Better plan, including independents, who “are a net 18-points opposed” to the agenda, per the NRCC memo.

Coinciding with the president’s plummeting ratings is the fact that Republicans have what the NRCC described as a “decisive advantage” on issues most important to voters — border security, jobs and the economy, and inflation/cost of living. 

“These were the only three issues to register in the double-digits,” NRCC found. 

Per the survey:

• When combining the economic concerns most important to voters (jobs and economy, inflation/cost of living, as well as government spending and the national debt), we find 37% of voters are focused on issues related to the economy.
• Among these economy-focused voters, a generic Republican leads a generic Democrat by a 2:1 margin (58%- 29%).
• When it comes to border security, Republicans hold an astonishing 83-point advantage, 87% Republican to 4% Democrat.

The survey was taken November 6-10, 2021, among 1,000 voters across 85 battleground congressional districts.

Big Business: Inflation Squeezes Customers but Fattens Profits

Not everyone is feeling squeezed by inflation. Many of the biggest businesses in the U.S. have actually expanded their profit margins despite rising wages, supply chain disruptions, and rising shipping costs.

Consumer sentiment has been crushed by declining standards of living and falling real incomes due to high inflation. Small businesses are reeling under the pressure of higher prices and a record 88 percent say they’ve been hit by supply chain shortages.

But for many big businesses with the market power to pass on higher costs and competition from smaller competitors ground down by cost inflation, the good times have continued to roll. Many publicly traded companies have reported “fatter profit margins so far this year than they did over the same stretch of 2019,” according to the Wall Street Journal.

Nearly two out of three of the biggest publicly traded companies reported fatter margins than they did before the pandemic, according to Factset data cited by the Wall Street Journal. About 100 of these have raked in more than 50 percent more money in 2019 before the pandemic.

The large corporate profit margins during an inflationary period are just one more reminder the playing field between the elites and hard-working Americans is uneven.

Rising corporate profits could become politically charged as American workers and families are struggling with paying higher prices for everyday necessities, such as rent, gas, and food. Inflation has reached a 30-year-high, giving companies room to dramatically raise prices and profits.

“Strong demand… has enabled companies to raise prices,” strategist at Deutsche Bank Parag Thatte told the paper.

A few of the massive companies reporting increasing profit margins are Ametek Inc, Sleep Number, and Tapestry Inc, which owns the Coach and Kate Spade brands.

Tapestry’s year-to-date profit margin has jumped to 14.5 percent from 10.7 percent for the same period in 2019, according to the Wall Street Journal. One way companies pass on higher costs is by keeping “price discipline,” which is executive-speak for not offering customers as many discounts.

“For Coach, the rise in [prices] isn’t really about inflation,” Coach’s CEO told the Journal. “It’s about reducing discounting.”

Ametek Inc, an aerospace and medical equipment company, has increased its profit margin to 23.4 percent from 22.8 percent in 2019.  “In the third quarter, our pricing continued to more than offset inflation,” CEO David Zapico said. “We’re going to stay up ahead of inflation, and I expect that to be true next year.”

Sleep Number’s profit margins have also reportedly risen three percentage points since 2019. “Each time we’ve seen this [inflation] build, we’ve taken additional pricing,” finance chief David Callen explained.

WATCH: Biden White House Dismisses Rising Inflation

Labor Dept says inflation at highest point in 30 years

President Joe Biden in July dismissed concerns over inflation, saying it's "highly unlikely" there will be "long-term inflation." Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm echoed Biden's claim this month, telling CNN that there is a "transitory nature to the inflation problem."

While the White House downplays the threat of rising consumer prices, the Labor Department on Wednesday said the annual inflation rate has hit its highest point in 30 years, and economic observers warn there could be no end in sight for the country's inflation surge.

Forty-six percent of registered voters think President Joe Biden has done less than expected since being inaugurated as president, according to a recently released Hill-HarrisX poll.

Additionally, when asked if they “believe President Joe Biden has accomplished more, less, or about as much as expected since taking office this January,” 23 percent of the respondents said Biden has done “more” than expected, while 31 percent said he has done “about as much as expected.”

The responses were answered along party lines. Seventy-two percent who identified as Republican said he has done less than expected, with only eight percent saying he has done more; and 20 percent said the president has done “about as much as expected.” Only 17 percent who identified as Democrats said Biden has done less than expected, with 44 percent saying he has done more, and 38 percent saying the president has done “about as much as expected.”

However, half (50 percent) of the independent respondents said he has done less, while only 14 percent said he has done more, and 38 percent said the president has done “about as much as expected.”

The Hill-HarrisX poll was conducted between November 9 and 10, asking 921 registered voters, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.2 percent.

The poll was released the same day the Biden White House held a signing ceremony for the infrastructure package, one of Biden’s only accomplishments so far in his administration.

Additionally, Biden’s approval has plummeted in recent months, going as low as 36.4 percent, according to a Zogby poll taken in October.

The Zogby poll also showed that Biden — within the first year of being in office — had already hemorrhaged support from most Hispanic voters (41 percent positive/59 percent negative) and an overwhelming majority of independent voters (24 percent positive/71 percent negative).

The October CIVIQS rolling job approval average showed that Biden’s approval rating is underwater in 41 states.

VIDEO: California Gas Prices Soar to Record High

The average price of a gallon of regular gasoline in California reached a record high on Monday.

The statewide average increased to $4.68 a gallon Monday, according to figures from the AAA, Fox 11 reported.

“This new average surpasses the previous record of $4.67 set in Oct, 2012,” the outlet continued:

The average price of regular gasoline in California is $1.27 higher than the current national average of $3.41, according to AAA. The average price of a gallon of self-serve regular gasoline in Los Angeles County rose seven-tenths of a cent Monday to $4.672, moving within 3.3 cents of the all-time high.

The average price rose 1.4 cents Friday, according to figures from the AAA and Oil Price Information Service. It is 7.9 cents more than it was one week ago, 20.8 cents more than one month ago and $1.523 higher than one year ago.

In a social media post on Thursday, oil and refined products analyst Patrick De Haan said average gasoline prices in California were at all-time record highs, “beating out both 2012 and 2008 records. $4.68/gal today statewide average”:

California residents spoke to CBS Los Angeles about how they are being affected by the price increase:

Meanwhile, Sen. Tom Cotton (R-AR) recently told Breitbart News he believes President Joe Biden (D) and fellow Democrats are deliberately causing gas prices to hit record highs to push their leftist environmental agenda on Americans:

“Most notably, more and more people tell me that they’re not even able to fill their pickup truck tank up for the entire week,” Cotton said. “They’ve got to fill up half a tank and hope that the price comes down by the end of the week. That, in particular, is the intended effect of Joe Biden’s energy policy. It’s not unintended or some accident. They want gas to cost $4 a gallon because they want all of us to get out of pickup trucks and SUVs and get into small electric compacts or bicycles or scooters or whatever else Pete Buttigieg takes to work.”

On Friday, the White House claimed growing gas prices proved the federal government needed to spend more on green energy.

“The rise in gas prices over the long term makes an even stronger case for doubling down our investment and our focus on clean energy options,” White House press secretary Jen Psaki commented.
