Prime Minister Fumio Kishida's public opinion ratings continue to plummet.
One major polling source showed him suffering a 14-point plunge, while another resulted in a higher disapproval than approval rating for the first time since he took office. His lowest polling number from a major source placed him at 29% — creeping into the danger zone for Japanese prime ministers.
There are now murmurs inside of the ruling Liberal Democratic Party about how long Kishida will be able to last, wondering if he is destined for an early exit like his predecessor, Yoshihide Suga.
