Poll: Biden has lost support of public over Afghanistan

A new poll finds overwhelming public disapproval of President Joe Biden over Afghanistan. The news comes after even formerly friendly media outlets report on the failure of the Biden administration’s implementation of an American pull-out.

The Trafalgar Group—one of America’s most accurate pollsters in 2016, 2018 and 2020—is releasing the results of a new national survey. Results were from surveys conducted August 14th through August 15th of over 1,000 likely 2022 election voters.

“There is absolutely no question that the American people are not buying the lies on Afghanistan. This is Saigon, and it’s far worse. Our nation has watched the same group of leaders in Washington DC flounder and blunder on foreign policy, on COVID-19, on the border, and on the economy,” said Mark Meckler, President of Convention of States Action. “After spending more than $1 trillion dollars and enduring wounded and dead soldiers, we are confronted with a basecamp for terror, a foreign policy nightmare, and are now less safe here at home. Time for new leadership.”
