Reuters/Ipsos poll: President Biden's approval rating has fallen to the lowest level of his presidency so far

 President Joe Biden's approval rating is under water, according to a Reuters/Ipsos national poll carried out Sept. 15-16.

According to the poll, while 50% of U.S. adults disapprove of the president's performance in office, only 44% approve, marking his lowest approval so far. It appears that 46% had been the lowest his approval numbers had been in prior Reuters/Ipsos polls.

"The Reuters/Ipsos poll is conducted online in English throughout the United States. The latest poll gathered responses from 1,005 adults in total including 442 Democrats and 360 Republicans. It has a credibility interval, a measure of precision, of 4 percentage points," according to Reuters.While Biden's rating is under water, President Donald Trump was even worse off at the same time in his presidency: "At the same point in Donald Trump's presidency, about 38% of Americans approved of his performance in office, while 57% disapproved," according to the outlet.

A recent Quinnipiac University national poll of adults similarly found that Biden's approval rating is upside down. That poll found that 50% disapprove of the way Biden is handling his role as president, compared to 42% who approve.

Biden has recently faced significant criticism for bungling the U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. The Quinnipiac poll found that a whopping 65% disapprove of Biden's handling of the troop withdrawal, while just 31% approve.

The Quinnipiac poll also found that 62% believe U.S. troops will need to go back to Afghanistan to combat terrorism, while just 28% do not think so.
