America’s left depends on the support of young people
conducted with YouGov, an online survey firm, an average of 29% of American adults under the age of 30 approve of the job Mr Biden is doing as president. But that compares with 50% who disapprove. The net rating of -21 points is the worst for any age group. Adults aged between 30 and 44 give Mr Biden a -17 rating; those aged 45 to 64 come in at -5; and among adults aged 65 and over, the president is eight points underwater.
Why have the young turned on him? Many told YouGov that their biggest concerns were climate change and health care. Here the president has promised much but so far delivered little. Younger Americans also care more about civil rights and abortion—and may be energised by recenton the latter. Others are angry about student-loan debt and Mr Biden’s unfulfilled promise to cancel at least $10,000 owed by every borrower.
Whatever the explanation for Mr Biden’s sliding popularity with the young, their support for him was much stronger when the alternative was Mr Trump. So their evaluations of the president in isolation are becoming more critical. If this trend persists, the Democrats will face severe challenges in next year’s mid-term elections.
