Gallup tracked 29 indicators during Biden’s presidency. Public satisfaction declined in 12, remained steady in 12, and improved in five. Overall, poor ratings exceeded strong ones by a substantial margin in the latest annual Mood of the Nation survey conducted from January 2-22.
Public satisfaction fell the most, by 11-12 percentage points, when it came to "military strength and preparedness;" "level of immigration;" "energy policies;" and "laws or policies on guns." Ratings for all four were at or near their record lows, and a majority reported some degree of satisfaction only for military strength and preparedness (62%).
Public satisfaction also fell regarding the amount of federal taxes; quality of medical care; abortion policies; wealth distribution; the economy; quality of public education; government regulation of businesses and industries; and "the position of women."
Overall, aside for military strength, the majority of Americans reported some degree of satisfaction only for "the position of women" (57%); "overall quality of life" (67%); "acceptance of gays and lesbians" (54%); "nation’s security from terrorism" (52%); and "the opportunity for a person in this nation to get ahead by working hard" (56%).
