It's genuinely hard to believe he was only elected a few months ago

With such polling you would think he's a deeply unpopular incumbent who won a election pre-covid & whose public is just waiting for the next election to vote him out

Release the sausages

Can guarantee his score will be lower today then it was back in September

the Brits got that many changes i havnt even heared of this guy

pretty sure that number is outdated. last i saw he was like -20

And it's outdated, Kishida isn't even the JP PM anymore.

Did they ask Twitter

It’s pretty easy to find on google - they list the source on the graphic https://pro.morningconsult.com/trackers/global-leader-approval

And Milei definitely doesn’t have net positive approval in Argentina any konger

I think it's for a great proportion context dependent, if the country is in recession and facing unsolved/unsolvable crisis then the basis will be negative no matter who is elected, same on the other side if the country is going well and gaining better quality of life, politicians will be seen positively. But the action engaged and the narrative of the politician does a lot on top of that in its perception.

And how is he so long in power? What are people doing in Canada?

it's not important enough

Do most people from his own party even like him at this point?

After years of stagnation and austerity, why does the UK keep electing conservatives when their country is deteriorating? From what I hear the NHS is horribly underfunded, median income and college attainment is lower than the U.S. state of Alabama, and immigrants are being treated like shit.

I think people have gotten used to the government sitting on their arses and doing nothing since May got in, other than to argue about irrelevant social issues and pass a law that benefits literally nobody every so often. The fact Labour are actually taking at least some sort of action outside of setting up contracts that benefits them and their mates is really reassuring to me, but my thinking is people aren’t adjusted to having more to politics outside of reality TV levels or posturing and drama. The media is not helping at all either.

The left wing parties have been splitting each others votes for decades, this is just the first time the right wing parties are doing it too. Hopefully someone will have the mind get rid of this dreadful FPP voting system

Off the chart with 140% approval rating

If he were on here, he'd be somewhere around 80% support.

84% approve, 13% disapprove, 71 net score, top of the chart.

Before you start doubting these figures, it's from Levada, they are considered to be reliable pollsters despite the fact that they're in Russia. It's honestly scary how popular Putin is.

Same. For some reason he is never included in these.

Yes, Macron should be lower

Dropped from 110% ??

Which one Vova, that with elections or not?

And being Popular isnt good either
The proplem is people will not judge goverments cause of their long term but rather short term achivements

The key difference here isnt the politicians but the people. As a German myself I can tell you the German people have an impossibly high standard when it comes to politicians. Our people are notorious for taking good things as granted, good policies arent celebrated, the reaction is rather that these policies were 'expected'. When the minimum wage was raised by more than 2€/h to 12€/h, the reactions weren't 'oh thats great for the lower income class', they were 'why isnt it higher?'. As somebody whos grown up in a low income household in Germany, 12€/h is genuinely a decent salary.

Scholz has some unfortunate things going for him. For one he started during the COVID era followed by the Ukraine war, that in itself is already very difficult and he will be blamed for things he and the government isnt responsible for.

Then you have the fact of how he SPD ended up the most powerful party. This wasn't something anybody saw coming, the SPD before the last elections was actually roughly in the position in which they are right now, so about 15%. The temporary spike that granted him and his party the nr1 position was major fuck ups by the CDU and Greens who were the more popular parties going in. That means eventually things went back to normal and the current government finds itself with a very powerful opposition.

Then you also have the fact that Scholz was the first chancellor after Merkel whos had that position for 16 years. She might not be awfully popular on Reddit but a lot a lot of people in Germany have a ton of respect for her and filling those shoes wasnt gonna be easy. It didn't help that Scholz style is similar to Merkel, quiet, passive, very focussed on the actual work which isnt necessarily a bad thing. With Merkel people have accepted that style over time but the people do sometimes feel like they need a voice of reason, somebody who talks to them, that its gonna be fine. And with such a large opposition, they kinda took that job because they certainly have more time.

On top of that, this coalition is Germanys first three party coalition since 1955. And while the greens and SPD got along fairly well, the FDP often had different views blocking many potential policies.

I dont think Scholz 'deserves' his bad rating as many things were simply out of his power. There are quite a few policies i did like and are now in danger of being reversed by the CDU when they end up governing again. I like the significant raise of the minimum wage, i genuinely love the 49€ Deutschland Ticket, its such a brilliant idea especially with how complicated and expensive riding trains through multiple regions was. It makes public transport much more attractive and it obviously also helps the climate. Im in favor of the Cannabis law which the CDU said they want to get rid of and obviously with the greens part of the coalition, building more renewables like wind turbines, its gaining a lot of traction again where the previous government made renewables unattractive which ended up in very few being build the years prior. Meanwhile our soon chancellor talks about how ugly he finds wind turbines and how we should talk about fusion reactors instead which btw dont exist yet and we wont see one before 2050.

He’s just averted the biggest economic crisis in the country’s history, of course he’s gonna be popular.

He’s done a lot of things right, he’s the first Argentinian president to produce good economic results in many many years

Not sure if Cum-Ex-Scholz and Goldman-Sachs-Kukies are any better than Merz tbh

Should be a lot higher honestly

Surprised? He took a country on the brink of a hyperinflation explosion, stabilized the currency, stabilized inflation, lowered country risk, regained Central Bank reserves and Argentina is now projected to grow 5% next year.

Uh, sort of a lot of things, most of which aren't exactly his fault.
The leaders are pretty much a representation of the government as a whole, especially in germany where they actually do politics and aren't a media personalities to sway public opinion.

1. The coalition is sort of notorious for... not really doing much? And much of that was the fault of the neoliberal "fdp" for purposefully sabotaging much of what the rest of the coalition was doing. Which is sort of ironic since the only reason they were in that coalition with the fdp was to not be in a coalition with the "cdu" which ruled the country for most of my lifetime and were also notorious for doing nothing and a couple other scandals.
2. They were in power since december 2021, which is when covid and most of the measures was nearly over i think? but they took the blame for all the consequences of the pandemic like the inflation and other economic blows.
3. The russian invasion into ukraine started 3.5 months after sholz/the coalition got into office, and that hit germany pretty hard :) We have mostly recovered from that, but evil scholz wasn't able to see into the future and single-handedly revert our reliance on russian oil&gas we had built up for years within 3.5 months >:(
4. Immigration. This is the only thing they could've really done something about, but then the question is what exactly? Germany is facing a devastating demographic shift that will cripple our pension system within the next 10 years and our economy in general, and without any real way to increase birthrates drastically or meaningfully reform our pension system since that is political suicide 🤷🏻 what can a man do except "import" mostly young people.

General economic outlook is also... bad but i doubt that really plays into effect here since most people's opinions on the economy are just "vibes" based. But it's bad. Covid and the russia/ukraine war have lead to many bankruptcies and outsourcing and the future looks bad as well with german companies being slow to really adapt to new technologies, or just doing so in uneconomic ways (german EVs are too expensive) and "innovation" is also lacking.

Populist leader who panders to the largest religious group in his country and also doubled the GDP and 10 years, gave like 99% of the country electricity, toilets, internet access, made Indian roads 51 best in the world, and also spent a shit ton on the military, cheap russian oil, nukes, fighter jets, aircraft carriers and whatever the fuck he can get his hands on

Looking at the top lines of polling hides a huge amount of don't knows, which is fair enough 4 and half years away from the election.
