Bad news for POTUS about the “mood” of America and what it means for his reelection hopes. From Gallup:

Comparing today’s economic and political ratings with those from previous years when presidents sought re-election reveals that today’s climate is more similar to years when incumbents lost than when they won.
Perhaps the broadest indicator of the public’s mood comes from Gallup’s satisfaction measure, which asks Americans if they are satisfied or dissatisfied with “the way things are going in the United States at this time.” The 24% of Americans currently satisfied is most similar to the 20% recorded in May 1992 during George H.W. Bush’s first and only term. Bush was also the only sitting president of the last four to lose his re-election bid.
By contrast, satisfaction was above 35% in May of 1996 and 2004, in advance of Bill Clinton’s and George W. Bush’s re-elections. And it was 48% in September 1984, the closest time period Gallup has to May of Ronald Reagan’s re-election year.
