Quinnipiac poll link.

Just 33% of American voters approve of how President Donald Trump is performing as president, a new Quinnipiac University poll has found.

The findings mark Trump's lowest approval rating and highest disapproval rating in the Quinnipiac poll. Sixty-one percent of respondents say they disapprove of the President's performance, with 55% of people saying they strongly disapprove -- the highest share of respondents yet.

Trump's numbers declined more among Republicans than they did among Democrats, who had already viewed the President unfavorably. In late June, 84% of Republicans approved of Trump's performance -- now, 76% of Republicans say the same. Seventeen percent of Republicans now say they disapprove of the way Trump is performing in the job.

The poll was conducted from July 27 to August 1 among a sample of 1,125 voters nationwide with a +/- 3.4 percentage point margin of error. Live interviewers called both landlines and cell phones.

From the Quinnipiac link:

President Donald Trump plunges to a new low as American voters disapprove 61 - 33 percent of the job he is doing, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today. White men are divided 47 - 48 percent and Republicans approve 76 - 17 percent. White voters with no college degree, a key part of the president's base, disapprove 50 - 43 percent.

Today's approval rating is down from a 55 - 40 percent disapproval in a June 29 survey by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University. This is President Trump's lowest approval and highest disapproval number since he was inaugurated.

The historic lows continue

Hidden white" vote don't get polled

 

[Raxus]

Losers are just tired of all the winning he is doing.

 

[Raptor2155]

Come on, get below 30%!

 

[AstroNut325]

3 out 4 Republicans still approve of Trump... W T F.

 

[zero_suit]

Might be under 30 in a couple of months.

 

[Xando]

He‘s getting impeached if he goes sub 30

 

[aadiboy]

What's the lowest approval rating of any president?

 

[Jmille99]

Fake news. Trump would tell you if his approval rating was low. Its not low. Greatest presidency ever.

 

[Forerunner]

Sad!

The republicans that don't like trump likely no longer consider themselves republicans

 

[Host Samurai]

It will get to 29 by the end of September

 

[Eusis]

I was going to make a joke about only Rasmussen mattering... because if he's under 50% there he's well and truly fucked. But, uhh, it looks like he's at 38% approval with them!

Ah hahaha what a pathetic lump of shit we have in office.

 

[Raxus]

Wonder if the poll factors in the healthcare vote loss and the mooch sleeping with the fishes.

I THINK Bush 2 holds that crown.

edit: nope looks like it was Nixon by a hair

 

[Ninja Scooter]

In baseball batting .330 is an incredible achievement.

 

[Joe Shlabotnik]

I THINK Bush 2 holds that crown.

Truman and Nixon hit the 20s, too.

Lowest point in 538 tracker, too.

The last Rasmussen actually has his disapproval rating all the way up at 62% - even higher than the Quinnipiac numbers. Which is crazy.

 

[mnannola]

These are the same polls that predicted Trump losing guys. Actually 33 percent is pretty good with all this fake news floating around. If Obama was president he would probably only have 10 percent. Loser Hillary would be lucky to be at 5.

 

[Robdraggoo]

Makes you wonder how many disapprove because he hasn't screwed over Brown people enough yet or hasn't taken away healthcare.

 

[Wet Bloodfart]

Truman and Nixon hit the 20s, too.

For someone who barely remembers his lessons about the immediate post WW2 America, why was Truman hated near the end? Korean War? Soviet power climbing?

Nixon and Truman both were at 22%. GW Bush was 25%. Truman's swing between approval and disapproval is nuts, his highest approval rating was 87%

 

[Flying Toaster]

Anecdotal but all the Republicans I know personally are I's after Trump won the nomination. Everytime I see the word Republican in acceptance of Trump I believe they are uneducated or evangelical.

Dude, he fucking celebrated a 48% approval rating from a Rasmussen poll.

You know that will sting since he despises Obama.

Republicans be like:

Only if his terrible popularity threatens Republicans in the mid-terms

He must be so tired of winning.

 

[IaN_GAF]

That's what they say but a lot of people are saying, ask Sean Hannity, a lot of people are saying, I bet Hillary has waaay worse approval ratings, believe me, the worst I tell ya, but they don't, the fake news media don't, and this is CNN and many others, terrible people, they don't show them, I don't know. Sad. #FakeNews

[adj_noun]

Any bets on what the absolute low of his Presidency ends up being?

I'll go 25.

DAMN! Even Trumpmussen has him under 40 now.

 

[Third Strike]

His approval rating being that low for Republicans is more shocking for me. I wonder how Republicans in Congress will react if/when he reaches the fifties in 2018. That's a massive detriment to Republicans running next year.

 

[Eusis]

I'd almost be surprised if Trump fails to reach the lowest point yet sometime during his presidency. Almost, because A. his dedicated base may really be THAT diehard to stick through while fewer were as attached to Nixon or W Bush, and/or B. he'll successfully avoid any obvious catastrophic events happening on his watch. Which I doubt, at the least he'll probably bungle a natural disaster response worse than Katrina, and that would probably tank support among his base in the end (especially as it'd PROBABLY be a hurricane wrecking the south east.)

 

[BeforeU]

Still way too high....

 

[Strike]

Lower.

 

[ebullientprism]

That is still an embarrassingly high number.

 

[gutter_trash]

Shit will continue to get worse:

Debt Ceiling.

Tax Reform.

Golfing.

 

[Osukaa]

lol Trumps face should be photo shopped on there! Although with the different skin tones... it might not be to wise...

 

[PeakPointMatrix]

Plummet faster.

Plunge lower.


Sear the fact that your highest highs can't even reach a black man's lowest lows.

Take that pain into your grave you orange smear.

 

[Netherscourge]

Last week had to be the worst week of his Presidency - thus far

Everything from failing to Repeal/Replace Obamacare, the crude Boy Scouts speech, Scaramucci...

This week he's calling the White House a dump and lying for his son over that Russia meeting - and it's only Wednesday.

Has Trump had a single week yet where he wasn't lying, or embarrassing the country or just being an asshole?
