Poll: Obama’s Presidency Is A Failure, From Healthcare To Immigration

09.09.2014 | News | Jerome Hudson |

It only took six years for over half the country to see Obama for the failure that he is. I blame the public education system for all these slow leaners.

But I digress.

Focusing on the facts, a new Washington Post/ABC News poll found that 52% of Americans are already calling Obama’s presidency a failure.

Perhaps Obama’s harshest criticism came from Americans’ view of his handling of immigration. We’ve written ad nauseam about how Obama has been playing politics with immigration reform for months.

One day he’s going to go around Congress and grant amnesty on his own. And the next day he says he’s going to wait until after the midterm elections to go through with his unconstitutional executive action.

Now it looks like the voters are fed up with Obama’s political games. A whopping 59% said they disapprove of Obama handling of immigration issues, just 31% approve.

Worse still, 56% said the disapprove of the implementation of Obamacare and of Obama’s handling of international affairs.

Those polled also came down hard on Congressional Democrats and Republicans, with 61% disapproving of Democrats and 72% disapproving of the GOP.

The poll also shows that 74% of Americans are either angry or dissatisfied with the federal government and 91% said ISIS is a very or somewhat serious threat.

Just eight weeks away from a crucial midterm election, Obama is being called a “drag on Senate Democrats.” His current approval rating is at 40%, according to Gallop.
