I know it’s cheap to keep posting poll numbers, but seeing them is one of the few ways I reassure myself that I’m not crazy. I suspect a few of you may feel the same way:
TRUMP SLUMPS AS AMERICAN VOTERS DISAPPROVE 55% – 38%
QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY NATIONAL POLL FINDS;VOTERS TRUST MEDIA, COURTS MORE THAN PRESIDENT
American voters today give President Donald Trump a negative 38 – 55 percent job approval rating, his worst net score since he took office, down from a negative 42 – 51 percent approval rating in a February 7 Quinnipiac University national poll.
President Trump’s negative scores are 36 – 59 percent among women and 41 – 50 percent among men, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds. Republicans approve 83 – 10 percent, while negative approval ratings are 5 – 91 percent among Democrats and 38 – 55 percent among independent voters.
Trump gets a negative 39 – 55 percent favorability rating, also his worst net score since taking office.
Vice President Mike Pence gets a split 41 – 40 percent favorability.
Opinions on most of Trump’s personal qualities also are negative, as American voters say:
55 – 40 percent that he is not honest;
55 – 42 percent that he does not have good leadership skills;
53 – 44 percent that he does not care about average Americans;
63 – 33 percent that he is not level-headed;
64 – 32 percent that he is a strong person
58 – 38 percent that he is intelligent;
60 – 37 percent that he does not share their values.
Trump is doing more to unite the country, 36 percent of American voters say, while 58 percent say he is doing more to divide the nation.
“President Donald Trump’s popularity is sinking like a rock,” said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.
“He gets slammed on honesty, empathy, level headedness and the ability to unite. And two of his strong points, leadership and intelligence, are sinking to new lows.
“This is a terrible survey one month in.”
It’s a terrible presidency one month in.
But who in their right mind ever thought this cretinous carnival barker could be a president? We’ll be scratching our heads over that one for centuries. If we survive.
