Biden dismisses diminishing poll numbers, low approval rating after debate
SUMMARY: In an interview with ABC News' George Stephanopoulos, President Joe Biden dismissed polls indicating his declining approval rating, maintaining that more Americans support him than reflected. Despite a New York Times/Siena College poll showing only a 36% approval rating and Donald Trump gaining ground, Biden questioned the accuracy of these polls. Stephanopoulos raised concerns about Biden's re-election chances given his low ratings and the close race despite Trump's criminal convictions. Biden contended these polls were unreliable and recalled overcoming similar skepticism in 2020. He reaffirmed his confidence in winning, asserting he's the most qualified candidate.
