U.S. President Joe Biden, who has been hampered by a number of challenges since taking office, is also experiencing a decline in confidence in his response to the novel coronavirus infection (COVID-19), which has been regarded as his greatest achievement.

    According to a survey jointly conducted on the 12th (local time) by the American internet media Axios and the opinion polling agency Ipsos of 1,15 American adults from the 8th to the 11th Respondents accounted for only 13% of the total.

    This is a drop of more than half compared to the 36% of the respondents at the time of the same survey in June.

    Only 9% of the respondents said they would return to their daily life within a year, which was a third of what it was four months ago (30%).

    In addition, while 65% of those who expected a return to their daily life within six months four months ago had full trust in President Biden, in this survey, only 44% said they did, showing a clear gap.

    "President Biden is basically losing the game of expectation," said Cliff Young, head of public sector at Ipsos. ", he pointed out.

    In politics, the complex function that President Biden has to solve is not only a pandemic (a global epidemic), but also a complex function that President Biden has to solve at the same time, such as confusion in the process of withdrawal from Afghanistan, unusual prices, and self-restraint within the Democratic Party over large-scale infrastructure budget processing. It is pointed out that the key variable will eventually be COVID-19.

    In a recent focus group interview conducted by the Democrats, the political media outlet Politico reported that all nine participants rated Biden a C or lower.

    Most of the participants in the interview reportedly agreed that the ongoing coronavirus situation had a negative impact on their evaluation of President Biden.

    One woman complained that she wanted to buy a car, but she was not able to do so due to a supply shortage of semiconductors, and another man pointed out the problem in restaurants where she lacks staff.

    "People don't feel that their lives have improved," said Sarah Longwell, a strategist who helped with Biden's presidential campaign.

    CNN analyzed that pessimistic prospects for the midterm elections are boiling within the Democratic Party, saying that Biden was elected to address the problems that occurred after the pandemic, but did not actually deliver a satisfactory report card.
