More than half of voters rate President Joe Biden as doing a poor job on immigration, and agree with a leading Republican’s claim that the president’s policy has produced “catastrophe” at the border.
That’s according to the latest Rasmussen Reports.
The survey found that just 30% of likely U.S. voters believe Biden is doing a “good” or “excellent” job handling issues related to immigration, while 52% rate him as doing a “poor” job on the issue.
Earlier this month, House Speaker Mike Johnson, Louisiana Republican, said: “Since his first day in office, President Biden has worked to systematically undermine America’s border security. … The result is a humanitarian and national security catastrophe.”
Fifty-eight percent (58%) of voters agree with that statement, including 44% who “strongly agree.” Thirty-seven percent (37%) disagree with the quote from Johnson, including 25% who “strongly disagree.”
Another 11% are not sure.
Fifty percent (50%) of voters trust Republicans more to handle immigration, while 38% trust Democrats more and 11% are undecided.
The GOP’s advantage on this issue is largely due to their 31-point margin among independents.
