We reported earlier about the new Monmouth national poll showing President Joe Biden has dropped to his lowest approval rating ever, earning a meager 34 percent. But voters are even more unhappy with another politician, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), who received an exceptionally low six percent approval rating. Meanwhile, 60 percent of respondents disapproved of the job he's been doing. (X) Monmouth wrote about the McConnell numbers, noting that he’s the only person in the poll who received a net negative score:

Well, apparently enough voters win Kentucky support his performance as they keep re-electing him.

Single-Digit-Mitch is long past his expiration date. Come on, Kentucky, it's time to clean out his stall and put a more honest, younger and better horse in there.

if we look at mitch mcconnell in a non-condemnatory way he should have been gone after the second brain freeze, he is not doing anyone any favors by staying in office and it's up to the people of Kentucky to show him the door

Credit McConnell with denying Obama his Supreme Court appointment and pushing through our nominees. None of the decisions we now applaud might have been possible without his leadership. His problem - our problem - is that Republicans don't know how to lead when not in power. It is not just Mitch's fault. We are saddled with way too many 'go along - get along' pols.

Taken by electronic poll where registering 0 automatically resets the clicker to the +/- 6% margin of error.

Should be that way across our entire government. Not that it matters. Just make your opponent look worse is a winning strategy.

Oh but thats so unfair! The public doesn't see most of what he does, as it takes place in parking garages, dark alleys and sleazy hotel rooms.

And people remember RISING wages, lots of jobs and inflation very low, and the economy growing rapidly under Trump just a few years ago.
Acosta is a total liar, and a fraud.

The 6% are the Dems in the Senate that like Minority Mitch bending over to give them what they want.

It's still quite a reach to assume that Kentucky voters who keep electing him are all going to vote for Donald.

He had a legitimate reason to retire and should have taken advantage of it.

The Republican Senators keep re-electing him to the leadership position despite what Republican voters think.

Is this from Repubs? I'm surprised he didn't get a higher percentage just from the Demzis.

Jurassic Park. That's my name for the senate & congress. Lots of dinosaurs who have long outlived their usefulness and hang on because they've never held a job.

So the polls say Mitch's polling is equal to Bidens. MSM keeps saying things like "Biden is at 41% ...his lowest polling yet. When we know for a fact that he was supposedly at 30% a couple of years ago, so he must be at 6% or below by now.

It’s time for Mitch to pack it in and retire to Kentucky Bourbon.

Tell that to the spineless Republicans! This creep should have had the grace to resign and hand over the reigns to someone else after he fell, and his speech froze the first time. He is disgusting and no one ever listens to his palaver.
