The 2023 poll conducted by the Washington Post and the University of Wisconsinfound that more respondents believe Biden is an illegitimate president compared to its 2022 edition. Concerns about Biden’s legitimacy have increased across the board – with Republicans, Democrats and independents now expressing skepticism.
“Belief in Biden’s legitimacy fell by nearly 10 points among adult Americans between 2022 and 2023, with just over 60 percent saying he is the legitimate president in 2023 compared to nearly 70 percent in 2022,” the National Pulse said.
“Among Republicans, belief in the legitimacy of the 2020 election and Biden’s victory fell from 40 percent to just over 30 percent. And among Democrats, [almost] 10 percent now say Biden is an illegitimate president compared to [roughly] five percent in 2022,” the Pulse continued. The same sentiments were also reflected among independent-leaning respondents, with only 66 percent believing Biden’s presidency is legitimate in 2023 compared to 72 percent in 2022.
“Perhaps most concerning for Biden is the erosion of support among young Americans. The polling data reveals American youth are less likely to believe Biden is a legitimate president than older Americans.”
According to the Pulse, “the backlash against Biden comes as Democrats step up efforts to remove former President Donald Trump from 2024 primary and general election ballots over accusations that he orchestrated an ‘insurrection’ on Jan. 6, 2021.”
“Voters have increasingly turned on the Biden government over its handling of the unchecked flow of illegal immigrants at the U.S. southern border, a sluggish economy, and concerns about him abusing office to financially enrich his family.”
Separate poll also finds Biden as a POOR LEADER
A separate survey from 2023 also found that Biden is a poor leader and a president who cannot be trusted. The poll by Center Square and Noble Predictive Insights (NPI) sampled 2,500 registered voters who leaned Republican, Democratic and independent from July 31 to Aug. 3, 2023.
It found that 49 percent of respondents say Biden is not a strong leader. Forty-nine percent also believe that Biden does not have the judgment to serve effectively, while 47 percent say he is not trustworthy. Sixty-six percent of respondents say the country is headed in the wrong direction with Biden at the helm, while 54 percent of respondents disapprove of the job he is doing.

NPI CEO Mike Noble noted how Biden’s rating is “underwater with both older and younger voters. He also pointed out that four in 10 Democratic-leaning voters and seven in 10 independents think the country is going in the wrong direction. The Biden campaign is mainly relying on voters who lean Democratic and independent to secure a win in the 2024 elections.
Meanwhile, a third survey conducted by National Public Radio (NPR) and Marist Collegebetween Aug. 11 and Aug. 14 of last year found that 52 percent of respondents disapprove of how Biden does his job as president. The poll which involved 1,220 adults also found that his disapproval rating is more pronounced along party lines.
An overwhelming majority of respondents who identified as Republicans – 91 percent – are dissatisfied with his work. The same sentiment was seen in respondents who identified as independent, with 55 percent expressing dissatisfaction with Biden’s performance.
