Title: President Joe Biden's Popularity Dips as Black Voters Wish They'd Swiped Left Event Summary: Updated 05/13/2023 at 10:30 a.m. ET © Photo: Anna Moneymaker (Getty Images) WASHINGTON, DC - MAY 12: U.S. President Joe Biden whispers sweet nothings into the ear of Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez during a rare moment of clarity at the Oval Office meeting. Entering the election cycle, President Joe Biden's approval rating has taken a nosedive, hitting an all-time low. This unanticipated drop in popularity seems to be linked to the growing disappointment amongst Black American voters, many of whom rue the day they chose him as their political soulmate. Load Error Joe Biden, once seen as the charming, silver-haired knight in shining armor, has experienced a rapid decline in his popularity on the app known as "VoteMatch." Many Black voters, who were instrumental in his previous electoral success, are now left swiping left on his profile in utter dismay. Nonetheless, the president remains strangely upbeat about the situation. Biden insists his 3.8-star approval rating on the app is merely a rounding error: "C'mon, man! That's practically a 5 if you round it up to the nearest 10!" While discussing the issue with his advisors, President Biden, who was overheard mistaking a 4.0-star rating for "excellent," could be seen swiping right on his own profile in a futile attempt to tip the ratings in his favor. Aides reportedly watched on in pitying silence, unsure of how to address the misguided effort. In one recent focus group, a disappointed Black voter named Keisha Johnson summed up her feelings about President Biden as if explaining a doomed Tinder relationship: “I thought he was a real catch at first, but now he's just full of empty promises—I wish I could swipe back in time." While stalwart supporters of the president argue that realistic expectations should be given more time to materialize, others are not so patient. The frustration among Black voters is a warning sign for Biden's reelection campaign, with some already drafting emotive Yelp reviews to express their discontent. Satirically credited for single-handedly stalling the President’s approval rating, the “silent swipers” have caused a political maelstrom within Democratic circles. With tensions boiling, a troubled Biden has taken to practicing his finger dexterity by playing competitive games of Candy Crush in the hope that it might somehow salvage his approval ratings. As election season looms and the pressure mounts, will President Biden be able to recover from this unexpected popularity dip? Or will his quest for public approval become an eternal quest to swipe right, left in the dust by a disillusioned voter base? In any case, one thing remains clear: Biden's once bright and promising flame has been reduced to the flicker of a candle, leaving all of us to ponder the poetic tragedy of politics and love, truly two sides of the same coin. Or, in this case, the same app.
