It’s not a good day in Trump Land.
In addition to three Donald Trump advisers being indicted by special counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation, and Trump’s proposed ban on transgender military service members being blocked by a federal judge, there’s more bad news for the Trumpster as the Gallup Tracking poll shows the president has hit a historic low in his approval rating in the poll.
Today’s results show Trump at a dismal 33% approval rating; his disapproval rating has shot up to 62%.
So. Much. Winning.
On this day in 2009, President Obama’s first year in the White House, his approval rating was 55% with only 40% disapproval.

From Gallup:
Americans’ support for same-sex marriage has more than doubled since Gallup first polled on the issue in 1996, when 27% said it should be recognized as valid by the law.
In 2004 — weeks before gay weddings took place in Massachusetts after it became the first state to legalize same-sex marriage — less than half of Americans (42%) felt such unions should be legally valid.
Majority support for gay marriage would not come until May 2011, about a month before New York became the sixth state to legalize it.
Since then, support for legal same-sex marriage has steadily climbed, with consistent majorities in favor of it since late 2012.
Gallup also reports that support for same-sex relations has also reached an all-time high of 72%.
When Gallup first began polling on the issue in 1977, only 43% said same-sex relations should be legal.

President Trump’s approval ratings continue downward – 38% approval today – in the aftermath of the firing of former FBI Director James Comey.
His recent “ceiling” seems to be around 43% approval these days.
He earned 46% of the voting electorate back in November, but hasn’t seen 46% approval since the week he was sworn into office.
More bad news for President Trump as Gallup Polling shows the opinion of American voters continues to slide downward on key characteristics of the Trumpster:
President Donald Trump’s image among Americans as someone who keeps his promises has faded in the first two months of his presidency, falling from 62% in February to 45%. The public is also less likely to see him as a “strong and decisive leader,” as someone who “can bring about the changes this country needs” or as “honest and trustworthy.”
With close to two-thirds of Americans saying in February that Trump “keeps his promises,” it was clearly a strength for the president. Given the sharp decline on that dimension this month, that is no longer the case. In February, a majority also said Trump can bring about the changes the country needs, but less than half hold that view now.
It’s notable that only 36% of those polled think Trump is “honest and trustworthy.”
President Trump falls to a historic low of 36% approval/57% disapproval according to Gallup Polls.
No modern day president has seen numbers this bad so soon in their presidency.
President Obama polled at 61% approval at this time in 2009.
