Joe Biden has disappointed Americans more than any other president since World War II has at this point in their term, a new Gallup poll released Friday appears to show.
The newest data come from a survey taken from October 1 - 19 and compares Biden's average approval rating across the first three quarters of his term against every president since Dwight Eisenhower.
Biden lost a whopping 11. 3 percentage points from his first quarter approval of 56 percent to an average of 44.7 percent at the end of the three months spanning late July through October.
His former boss Barack Obama saw the second-largest dip in average approval, losing 10.1 percent from his first through third quarters.
Donald Trump, the only post-WWII president whose approval rating is lower than Biden's at this point, saw a smaller drop of just 4.4 percent after having started with low expectations.
Independents appear to be driving down Biden's favorability the most, from 61 percent approval at the beginning of February to just 34 percent in October.
The historic drop is fueled by Biden's inability to shake off growing public dissatisfaction over his White House tenure as his month-to-month approval rating slips to a new low of 42 percent in October.
His approval was dealt a massive blow amid a border crisis that appears to be spiraling out of control and the US's hasty exit from Afghanistan at the end of summer.

Biden's plummeting approval ratings appear to have leveled off, falling just one point from September to October
But in good news for the Democratic president, his dip in approval ratings appears to be leveling off.
In September he took a significant blow when his ratings went from 49 to 43 percent. The one point drop in October is modest by comparison.
