President Joe Biden has a higher job approval rating early in his term than any Republican president from the last 40 years. That is according to polling from multiple sources.
In a Gallup poll conducted from Jan. 21-Feb. 2, Biden s approval rating was 57%. Only 37% disapproved and 6% had no opinion.
The approval rating matched George W. Bush s rating from early February 2001. Only Barack Obama s 68% in January 2009 and Bill Clinton s 58% mark in January 1993 were higher over the last 40 years.
In early 1981, Ronald Reagan had a 51% approval rating, the same as George H.W. Bush in January 1989.
