spending it on. with inflation off the charts, joe biden wants to keep spending and wants to label anything covid spending. i'm pretty skeptical as you can see. >> critics continue to point out there's already unspent funding from the roughly $6 trillion in covid aid that's been authorized since the very beginning of the pandemic adding to their concerns about rising debt and sky-rocketing inflation issues. you heard josh holly mention that a moment ago. all is happening as a new quinnipiac university poll puts president behind's approval rating at just 35%. no doubt, inflation remains the top issue for those who had been surveyed and 6 in 10 americans, shannon, say they believe the economy is actually getting worse. and disapproval for biden is wide and deep as well. in fact, the latest civics poll indicates the president has a negative net approval in every state in the u.s. except for four of them, hawaii, maryland, massachusetts and vermont.
