Americans are increasingly upset with the way President Joe Biden handled the withdrawal from Afghanistan, with only 30 per cent saying they approve of the way it went down.
In the Morning Consult/Politico poll released Wednesday, 12 per cent of registered voters say they strongly approve of Biden's handling of the chaotic Afghanistan withdrawal, which left 13 U.S. service members dead and hundreds of Americans citizens stranded there. Another 18 per cent said they somewhat approve of the president's handling.
On the other hand, a whopping 61 per cent of American voters say they either somewhat or strongly disapprove of Biden's withdrawal plan.
The president, in remarks declaring an end to the 20-year war in Afghanistan on Tuesday, called the withdrawal an 'extraordinary success' – despite a slew of criticism and leaving hundreds of Americans behind to meet the August 31 deadline he set with the Taliban.
