While Joe Biden’s approval ratings continue to sink, morale among staffers is reportedly extremely low in Biden’s White House as his first year in office comes to close. Majority of Americans want to get rid of the failed administration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.
According to media reports, Joe Biden stood at 43 percent approval and 51 percent disapproval in an NPR/Marist national survey released earlier this month and a separate national poll from Monmouth University indicated a 40 percent approval and a 50 percent disapproval. Some polls show Biden’s approval rating even lower than 25 percent.
Kamala Harris fares even worse according to The Hill polling last month that showed her with a 28 percent approval rating while some polls show her approval rating at less than 20 percent.
According to a Politico report late Wednesday, White House staffers are unhappy with their jobs to the point where they anonymously leaked to the online publication in hopes that senior staffers would be alerted to the lack of comradery and overall happiness in the workplace.
“A lot of the natural coordination that happens in a typically functioning White House has been lost, and there has been no proactive effort to make up for it through intentional team building,” one White House official said.
Staffers say they have struggled with virtual events and some staffers have complained that those who are “outsiders” to Biden’s inside circle and network are often left out.
Additionally, staffers say they have been left out of certain events while staffers from around the capital are invited in their stead due to a “lottery system” used to decide who comes to certain gatherings.
“It’s also hypocritical and ironic that a president whose brand is built on empathy and family has staff policies that fly in the face of that brand,” one staffer said. “It’s not a good look, and it’s emblematic of how this place runs”.
Many of the staffers said they are in the process of updating their resumes and will start looking for new jobs next year once the president officially hits his one-year anniversary in office.
Staffers in Kamala Harris’s office have already started heading for the exits, including her communications director Ashley Etienne and senior adviser Symone Sanders with several others reportedly planning to follow suit soon.
The unrest in the White House comes as Biden and Harris continue to be dogged by low polling numbers as Americans grapple with record inflation, soaring gas prices, supply chain issues, the omicron variant of the coronavirus, the ongoing border crisis, and rising international tensions with Russia and China.
RNC criticizes Joe Biden’s first year
The Republican National Committee (RNC) laid out Joe Biden’s “broken promises” during his first year in office in a new memo rebutting the White House’s accomplishment claims.
The RNC put the Biden White House on blast with the six-page document obtained by Fox News, torching the president for not keeping his promises to the American people after ascending to office.
“There is no other way to describe the first year of Biden’s presidency other than an utter failure,” RNC chairwoman Ronna McDaniel told Fox News Digital in an emailed statement. “Worse yet, Biden’s attempts to bill it as a success proves just how out of touch they are with the American people”.
Meanwhile, majority of the Democratic Party policymakers are worried at the anticipated disastrous outcome during the 2022 midterm polls, where Republican Party candidates both in the Congress and Senate are expected a sweeping victory.
