‘How Is He Going To Turn That Around?’: George Stephanopoulos Confronts Jen Psaki On Biden’s Tanking Poll Numbers

ABC anchor George Stephanopoulos challenged White House press secretary Jen Psaki directly during a Sunday morning interview on “This Week,” asking her how President Joe Biden planned to reverse his still-sinking polls.

Stephanopoulos cited a recent ABC/Washington Post survey — that showed over half of respondents believed Biden did not possess the “mental sharpness” to lead effectively — and pressed Psaki on how the president might use his upcoming State of the Union Address to help turn things around.

“The president is approaching his State of the Union in a pretty difficult political position right now, 37 percent approval rating, Democrats trailing badly in the midterm polling,” Stephanopoulos said, noting that Biden’s low approval numbers were likely to have a devastating impact on his party going into this November’s midterm elections.

“A majority in our recent poll out this morning even question the president’s mental capacity. How is he going to turn that around on Tuesday night? And how much has his State of the Union been changed by this war in Ukraine?”

“You know, George, from covering State of the Unions for some time, that it is about delivering a message to the public at a moment in time. And if you look back when President Obama gave his first State of the Union, it was during the worst financial crisis in a generation. When President Bush gave his first State of the Union, it was shortly after 9/11,” Psaki replied, making no effort to address Stephanopoulos’ concerns about the poll numbers.

  1. They can’t turn this around – the voters have already seen the administration’s incompetence level and will take away their power in November – as long as there is a fair and honest election!
