00:00 Amid the Israel-Hamas conflict, President Joe Biden has faced intense criticism, particularly
00:08 evident before his 7th March State of the Union address.
00:12 Preceding the event, tensions reportedly escalated in the White House, symbolized by the fencing
00:17 around the US Capitol.
00:19 Pro-Palestinian protesters during an action campaign, including a heckling incident involving
00:23 First Lady Jill Biden, added to the administration's challenges.
00:27 Biden's 2024 re-election efforts are faltering, leading to internal discontent.
00:33 A new report has detailed a private January meeting where Biden reacted vehemently to
00:38 declining poll numbers in key states like Michigan and Georgia, showing signs of growing
00:44 agitation.
00:45 According to the report, the president found himself in a tight race against his Republican
00:49 rival Donald Trump, intensifying his frustrations.
00:52 However, reports of Biden's frustration are not new.
00:57 A communication barrier has further alienated Biden from the American public, as evident
01:02 in a March survey by the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
01:07 As per the report, six in 10 adults expressed doubt about the 81-year-old president's mental
01:13 capacity to lead the country.
01:15 These concerns reflect in Biden's approval rating, which has fallen below those of recent
01:20 presidents denied a second term.
01:23 Biden attempts to criticize Trump, such as Jill Biden's portrayal of him as dangerous
01:27 to women, during the Women for Biden launch, have also failed to boost Biden's standing.
01:33 Several sources are suggesting that Biden is upset with himself for not exerting stronger
01:37 leadership.
01:38 Advisers are now emphasizing the need to focus on achievement rather than dwelling on past
01:43 grievances.
01:44 Pro-Biden figures like ex-Louisiana Senator Mark Landrieu is also advocating for a message
01:49 centered on job creation and progress.
01:52 In late January, Biden and Trump were neck-to-neck in the polls, with Biden at 44 and Trump at
01:57 45.
01:58 However, the recent polls show that Biden has now slipped to 39 percent.
02:04 Following the State of the Union address, Biden's approval rating dipped further, hitting
02:08 a record low of 37.5 percent, according to the FiveThirtyEight.
02:14 In all, Biden's handling of the Israel-Hamas war has exacerbated the existing challenges
02:18 leading to dwindling support and internal discontent within this administration.
02:23 As the polls near, it is more likely that Biden's approval ratings will dip further.
