Biden approval rating ticks back down after slight bump

President Joe Biden's approval rating is back down to near all time lows in one poll after a string of surveys suggested his approval numbers were increasing. 

The latest Reuters/Ipsos survey, released Tuesday, put the president at a 38% approval rating, a three-point decline from his previous score in the same survey last week. Moreover, a solid majority of 58% disapproved of Biden's performance.

Conducted from Monday through Tuesday, the poll surveyed 1,005 adults, among them 449 Democrats and 357 Republicans. 

Biden scored a record-low 36% approval rating in the Reuters poll throughout much of May, June and July.

While most polls still show the president significantly underwater, some had begun to indicate he was making a comeback. Last week, he scored a 44% approval in a Gallup survey that saw him jump six points since July.

The RealClearPolitics poll of polls currently shows him with a 41.8% approval rating and a 54.8% disapproval figure.

He had hovered below 40% average approval for most of June and July.

Republicans are widely expected to reclaim the House of Representatives in the November midterm elections and a falling approval rating could spell trouble for Biden's Democratic Party.
