summer. hey, do you work? what do you do? usually when an 81-year-old does that much traveling through europe, it s on a viking river cruise. [ laughter ] good morning. welcome to morning joe. it is thursday, june 13th. we re going to bring you the very latest from the g7 summit in italy. president biden is there meeting with world leaders and also talking support for ukraine. that s a top priority there. meanwhile, there s a lot happening today on capitol hill. donald trump will be in washington to meet with lawmakers from both chambers, setting up his first face-to-face with senate minority leader mitch mcconnell in more than three years. it comes a day after a partisan vote in the house, holding merrick garland in contempt of congress. we re going to dig into all of that straight ahead. along with joe, willie, and me, we have the host of way too early, white house bureau chief at politico, jonathan lemire. former treasury official and economic analyst steve ....
This point. the biden administration has just had enough. they re doing everything they can. they re spending u.s. money. we re supporting them any way we can, and chaos is still breaking out in the west bank. why? not for security reasons but because it helps benjamin netanyahu politically. you know, his approval rating is down in the low 30s. only 15% of them want to stay on after the war. joe biden s arrival rating is in the 80s. they have billboards of biden all over israel. this is a great opportunity for joe biden to say, we support israel s right to exist. we will always support israel s right to exist. joe biden has said in the past, i m a zionist. he can go, and he has the authority to say the things that other u.s. presidents haven t had the authority to say. one of them is, your future is not with benjamin netanyahu. america s future is not with benjamin netanyahu. this has to stop. again, going back to what david wrote on the second or third day of the war, we have to ....
Some numbers even lower, but in that range. lowest of any president since somewhere before carter, i don t know where. even people like carter and reagan, who we ll talk about in more detail in a second, were sitting at 54%. obama at 43%. trump at 45%. a very strange situation for the president given the numbers i just showed you. obviously, there s a war going on in gaza. you know, jimmy carter faced a hostage crisis already under way at this point in his re-election. he still sat at 54%. let s look at the economic statistics. why might biden s arrival rating be so low? not because of the economic performance. at 3.1%, it s a little higher than some of these presidents but kind of in line. look at jimmy carter, 13.3% inflation and 54% approval rating. if you look at unemployment, the 3.7% for biden that i mentioned, again, this is lower, trump was at 3.6%, but this is lower ....
Are some challenges now for democrats that didn t exist in the last cycle because of the president s arrival rating and the challenges with the agenda, but there is all sorts of, you know, i think evidence from the past time around, that if you tell people they shouldn t trust their vote will be counted, they may not actually show up to vote. that s going to be a problem for republicans. yeah. look, trump, when it comes to the republicans who didn t get on board with the big lie, he s proven time and again that he doesn t mind being a grenade, right? the collateral damage could be the party writ large. that doesn t seem to bother him really. no. look, he had power here, too. let s not deny that donald trump is the most popular republican in georgia and pretty much any state around the country. he is popular with the republican base. that s another consideration that these republicans, like brian kemp, have to make. they can t afford to annoy trump republicans and look like they re ....
