Nine months into his time in office, voters approved of how Trump handled the economy, immigration and foreign policy more than they did of Biden's.
Also weighing on Biden's approval rating is America's withdrawal from Afghanistan. After 20 years, the United States left Afghanistan at the end of August, prompting fierce criticism of Biden.
Quinnipiac's poll found Biden also trails slightly behind Trump in terms of how voters view their handling of foreign policy. In October 2017, 38 percent of people surveyed in the Quinnipiac Poll approved of Trump's handling of foreign policy, including 80 percent of Republicans and 4 percent of Democrats. Four years later, 34 percent approve of Biden's tackling on the topic, including 2 percent of Republicans and 72 percent of Democrats.
Trump also polled higher at this point in his presidency than Biden on the issue of immigration, although the two earned exactly the same approval rating, 37 percent, on their handling of taxes. At this point in both Biden and Trump's presidencies, 38 percent of voters approved of how the two presidents were handling their job as president, according to the Quinnipiac polls. Slightly more people disapproved of Trump's job, at 56 percent compared to 53 percent.
In the 2017 poll, 1,482 voters were surveyed and the margin of error was plus or minus 3 percentage points and in the 2021 poll 1,326 voters were surveyed and the margin of error was plus or minus 2.7 percentage points.
