Trump Approval Numbers Crater To New Low In New AP Poll

More bad news for Donald Trump’s failing presidency as his approval rating has cratered to a new low of 32% in the most recent Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research survey.

From The Hill:

Thirty-two percent of Americans polled said they approved of Trump’s handling of his job nine months into his presidency, while 67 percent of those polled said they disapproved.

The president’s approval rating in the poll is down from 42 percent in March and 35 percent in June, AP-NORC said.

CNN Poll: Trump’s Approval Rating Hits Historical Low

According to a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS, only 38% of those polled approve of Donald Trump’s handling of the presidency, while 56% say they disapprove.

Only one other president at the six-month mark of their presidency has notched an approval rating below 50% at this point since modern polling began: Bill Clinton. At this point in 1993, Clinton had an approval rating of 44%, still 8 points better than the Trumpster.

The high 30s is where Trump seems to average when it comes to approval numbers.

But there is a troubling issue in this survey’s results for Trump. Among Republicans, strong approval has dropped by double digits – from 73% in February to 59% now. That signifies a drop of 14 points among his base.

More from the poll:

• Only 24% of Americans trust everything that comes out of the White House; 30% say they trust “nothing at all” from the Trump White House

• Just 43% believe Trump can “bring the kind of change the country needs,” down from 48% in April

• Only 39% feel Trump “can manage the government effectively,” down from 44% in April

• Just 36% say the Trump presidency is a success thus far versus 59% who say Trump is failing. At this point in their respective presidencies, both Obama and George W. Bush were considered “successful” by most Americans (51% for Obama; 56% for Bush)

• 62% say Trump’s actions and statements since taking office have made them less confident in him

• 59% say Trump isn’t paying enough attention to the country’s most critical issues

According to a new survey of 37 countries by Pew Research Center, the world’s confidence that America’s President will “do the right thing” has dropped precipitously.

From the survey:

Although he has only been in office a few months, Donald Trump’s presidency has had a major impact on how the world sees the United States.

Trump and many of his key policies are broadly unpopular around the globe, and ratings for the U.S. have declined steeply in many nations.

According to a new Pew Research Center survey spanning 37 nations, a median of just 22% has confidence in Trump to do the right thing when it comes to international affairs.

This stands in contrast to the final years of Barack Obama’s presidency, when a median of 64% expressed confidence in Trump’s predecessor to direct America’s role in the world.

Over 40,000 respondents were polled in the survey.

When asked to describe Donald Trump’s character:

• 75% said “arrogant”
• 65% said “ignorant”
• 62% said “dangerous”

So. Much. Winning.

Trump Lies About His Approval Rating – Again

Donald Trump is still competing with Barack Obama.

Today, he tweeted that his approval rating is higher than that of Barack Obama – despite the data he is referring to suggesting the opposite is true.

“The new Rasmussen Poll, one of the most accurate in the 2016 Election, just out with a Trump 50% Approval Rating. That’s higher than O’s #’s”

As everyone who follows politics knows, Rasmussen famously leans right in it’s polling.

President Obama entered office on January 20 2009 with an approval rating of 67 per cent. At this point in his presidency his approval rating was 55%, five points higher than Trump.

Real Clear Politics, a site which collates data from the major national polls, estimated Mr Trump’s approval rating to be 39.9 per cent from May 30 to June 15.

The Huffington Post’s latest average puts the President’s approval rating at 38.5 per cent.
