US President Joe Biden's approval rating fell by three points to 36 percent this week, tying the lowest rating of his 19 months in the White House, as inflation takes a toll on American life, according to a Reuters/Ipsos opinion poll completed on Tuesday.

Biden's approval rating has been below 50 percent since August 2021, and has hovered around its record-low since first hitting it in May, raising alarms that his Democratic Party is on track to lose control of at least one chamber of Congress in the Nov 8 midterm elections.
自2021年8月以来,拜登的支持率一直低于50%,并在今年5月首创新低,之后便在此低点徘徊。人们开始担忧,拜登所在的民主党可能会在11月8日的中期选举中失去对美国国会至少一个议院的控制权。
