It appears that President Joe Biden is the least popular in modern American history “as evidenced by the lack of care people have for him,” Breitbart News reported.

“Biden stopped at a gas station this week to order food in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. Upon entering, few flocked to interact with him. Most patrons stood by, did not hold out their hands, and watched the president walk past,” the report said.

“Biden tried to speak with a girl when he entered the station, but after receiving little interaction, he slowly marched on while cameras followed and onlookers pressed themselves up against the wall. Biden posed for a few photos before he walked to the door,” it said.

Biden struggled to hear someone who asked if he thought his tariff policy would damage his relationship with China before answering “No.”

Juxtapose the response to the president in a city he was victorious in the 2020 election to that of the scene when former President Donald Trump visited a bodega in Harlem, a city that is one where he was defeated by a massive vote in the 2020 election.

A crowd chanted “Four more years!” and “We love Trump” before the former president spoke to the crowd.

“This is all politics. This is coming out of the White House. And you know, it makes me campaign locally, and that’s okay,” the former president said regarding his myriad of court cases.

Others noticed the gap in enthusiasm between Biden and Trump.

“Biden stopped by a Sheetz gas station today because he wanted to try to replicate Trump’s Harlem bodega, where clerk Jose Alba defended himself while a violent customer attacked him in July 2022. It didn’t work,” Alex Bruesewitz, a Trump supporter said on X, formerly Twitter. “No one cheered. No one was excited to see him. Americans absolutely despise this crooked old fool.”

“People have had a chance to see Joe Biden be the president for three years now, and we’ve talked almost every day about his job approval ratings, which are very, very low,” Washington Examiner reporter Byron York said to Fox News. “As a matter of fact, if they’re this low, you just can’t win reelection.”

Things are getting desperate for President Joe Biden and his administration as they prepare to face former President Donald Trump in the next election.

The coalition of voters he galvanized to defeat the former president in the 2020 presidential election appears to be crumbling and that includes black voters, The Washington Examiner reported.

A recent poll shows that 30 percent of black men in seven swing states are planning to vote for the former president, which represents a massive increase from the 12 percent who supported him in 2020.

The president is still anticipated to carry the black vote, with 57 percent saying they will vote Democrat, but that is a marked collapse from 2020 and could mean the end of the tenure of President Biden.

“In the same poll, 42% of black women surveyed revealed they are still uncertain or persuadable in their voting choice. In 2020, 6% of black women voted for Trump. Now, 11% said they are definitely or probably going to vote for Trump,” the report said.

“In this particular election, the persuasion isn’t just to vote or not to vote,” Adrianne Shropshire, head of BlackPAC, a Democratic super PAC, said. The persuasion is actually to get people to come to Biden and away from third parties and away from Trump.”

The eligible black vote is anticipated to count for 1 percent of the vote in 2024 at 34.4 million.

“In an effort to garner support from the black community, Biden invested $25 million in an advertising campaign to reach key voters in swing states back in August. This includes the largest investment in black media for a reelection campaign in history. The move comes as Democratic pollster Michael Bocian pointed out that ‘Biden is further off than where we have seen Democrats in the past’ in capturing the black vote,” the report said.
