NBC reporter Yamiche Alcindor faced online criticism for her explanation of a poll showing that a large majority of Americans believe the U.S. is headed in the wrong direction.
Alcindor was a guest on MSNBC when she was asked to comment on a poll showing a whopping 74% of Americans say the country is headed in the wrong direction.
She opined about the reasons Americans would have to say the country was in the wrong direction and claimed that many were upset that former President Donald Trump might get elected again or that Republicans might steal the next election.
"But what you see really is on the Democratic side people that are very very worried about the direction of this country.
"They’re very worried especially about former President Trump possibly coming back into power, or former President Trump or another Republican stealing the election in 2022 or 2024, because we've seen so many election deniers be elected.
So a lot of Democrats on the Democratic side, they're very worried about abortion also, and abortion rights.
On the Republican side, Alcindor claimed that Americans were negative because of conspiracy theories about the 2020 election being stolen.
"They're worried that the country is going in the wrong direction because they're seeing too many people say that the election was free and fair, which of course it was," she continued.
She went on to say that Republicans are campaigning on anxiety because of high inflation and increasing gas prices, in addition to the pandemic continuing to have a negative effect on the economy.
The video of Alcindor's comments were circulated widely among those critical of Biden's policies.

On Sunday, Chuck Todd summarized the results of the latest poll from NBC News to which Alcindor was referring.
"We are less than three months before the midterms. Our brand new NBC News poll paints a bleak picture," said the NBC anchor.
"Americans are angry," he added. "They're disappointed. And they are worried about the future of this country."
Alcindor has been accused numerous times of being biased against Republicans in favor of Democrats and their policies.

NBC reporter trips over facts when using Joe Biden's COVID-19 infection to slam Donald Trump: 'Let's remember'
NBC News correspondent Yamiche Alcindor tried to use news of President Joe Biden's COVID-19 infection to slam former President Donald Trump.
But her attempt fell flat after Biden did exactly what she criticized Trump for doing.
What did Alcindor say?
Reacting to news of Biden's infection on MSNBC, Alcindor drew a distinction between Biden and Trump, bringing attention to Trump not wearing a mask after he became infected.
"[T]hink about the fact that we now have two U.S. presidents in a row that have had tested positive for COVID, and I think what we’re gonna see here is likely a different sort of approach to it," Alcindor said.
"Let’s remember his predecessor took off his mask even though it was sort of in the period where he could’ve possibly infected other people," she added. "He didn’t want to talk about getting vaccinated at the White House."
On the other hand, Alcindor afforded Biden the benefit of the doubt, claiming he would be different.
"President Biden, I suspect, just in talking to White House officials, is gonna remind people, 'Yes, I could get it, which means you can get it, which means we all have to be vigilant about this,'" she said.

What did Biden do?
Just hours after the White House announced the infection — and that Biden is experiencing COVID-19 symptoms — the White House posted a photo of Biden working.
People quickly noticed the fact that Biden is maskless in the photo, meaning he potentially exposed the photographer to COVID. The White House confirmed the photo was snapped on Thursday.
\u201cFolks, I'm doing great. Thanks for your concern. Just called Senator Casey, Congressman Cartwright, and Mayor Cognetti (and my Scranton cousins!) to send my regrets for missing our event today.\n\nKeeping busy!\u201d— President Biden (@President Biden) 1658420306
Being maskless while COVID-positive also violates guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
Regardless of vaccination status, the CDC advises individuals who test positive for COVID to isolate from everyone in their home for five days, wearing a well-fitting mask when around others. Even when symptoms subside, guidelines recommend taking precautions for 10 days.
"Wear a well-fitting mask for 10 full days any time you are around others inside your home or in public. Do not go to places where you are unable to wear a mask," the guidelines state.
Still, the White House defended the maskless photo.
"He took off his mask so that the American people could see him and see directly, you know, see the work that he's doing and that he's sitting at his desk continuing to do his work," White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said Thursday at the daily press briefing.
