Not quite
President Donald Trump’s approval rating has dropped to 34% in a Gallup poll released Monday, the low point of a presidency that already had the weakest average approval rating of any of his predecessors since the survey began in the 1940s.

Ok Mr (I think) smart guy, tell us what in your wise decision making mastery, what would you have done different, not if your god king was back but if YOU were in Biden's place.

Let's here YOUR plan.
Not sure about Mott, but I'd have started by NOT pumping trillions of dollars in deficit spending into an economy that was doing fine as is, NOT taken public steps to undermine public confidence in our ability to remain energy independent and NOT making fatuous and absurd promises to "shut down" the virus.

Edit: I also wouldn't have cut and run from Afghanistan, though my view on that wasn't particularly popular on this board, as I recall.

The economy that Biden inherited was far from "doing fine"; it had contracted 3.5% in 2020 the worst decline in 74 years. https://apnews.com/article/us-economy-shrink-in-2020-b59f9be06dcf1da924f64afde2ce094c

Biden also deserves enormous credit for having the courage to end the US fiasco in Afghanistan even though it cost him politically (something three prior Presidents had decided to kick the can down the road rather than face).

It had declined over-all in 2020 because it had totally tanked in Q2 due to COVID. It rebounded quite nicely in Q3 and Q4 and there was no reason to believe there was any recession danger by January 20, 2021.

The "nice rebound" left real GDP almost a half trillion dollars less than at the end of 2019 (https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GDPC1) and there were 4.9 million more unemployed. https://www.bls.gov/opub/mlr/2021/article/unemployment-rises-in-2020-as-the-country-battles-the-covid-19-pandemic.htm#:~:text=The%20unemployment%20rate%20fell%20to,at%20the%20end%20of%202019.

Your "laissez faire" prescription would have increased economic misery for millions for no good reason.

Dragging the occupation out was costing many more lives every day.

Gee, remember when all you right wing clowns were insisting the Taliban would hold Americans hostage? Whatever happened to that?

Real GDP went up over 5.7% last year. https://www.bea.gov/news/2022/gross-domestic-product-fourth-quarter-and-year-2021-advance-estimate#:~:text=GDP%20for%202021,in%202020%20(table%201).

For those economically illiterate, "real" means "after inflation".

Gee, remember when we were talking about you being concerned with biden being hurt politically, when there were 13 young men that lost their lives.
