New Q Poll refutes the inane media speculation that Trump is winning over the public:
It is important that a president be a good role model for children, 90 percent of American voters say, but President Donald Trump is not a good role model for children, these voters say 67 – 29 percent in a Quinnipiac University National Poll released today.
There is almost no gender gap in grading President Trump’s standing as a role model. Every party, gender, education, age and racial group, except Republicans, say the president falls short, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds.
Republicans say 72 – 22 percent that Trump is a good role model for children. Another key element of the president’s base, white voters with no college degree, say 54 – 41 percent that he is not a good role model for children.
President Trump does not provide the U.S. with moral leadership, American voters say 63 – 33 percent. Again, there is virtually no gender gap as all listed groups, except Republicans and white voters with no college degree, say by wide margins the president does not provide moral leadership. Republicans say 80 – 16 percent he does provide moral leadership and white voters with no college degree are divided 47 – 47 percent.
“For President Donald Trump, it’s a troubling trifecta: Stagnant approval numbers, low grades on most character traits and the reality that if parents are looking for someone their kids should emulate, that person is not residing at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue,” said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.
“Only 27 percent of American voters say they are proud to have Donald Trump as president, while 53 percent say they are embarrassed – a 2-1 negative.”
American voters disapprove 58 – 36 percent of the job Trump is doing, marking 12 months of negative scores and seven months since his approval rating hit 40 percent.
The only groups approving of Trump are Republicans, 86 – 9 percent, and white voters with no college degree, 50 – 42 percent. White men are divided as 47 percent approve and 49 percent disapprove.
Trump’s grades on most character traits remain negative as voters say:
60 – 35 percent that he is not honest;
59 – 38 percent that he does not have good leadership skills;
57 – 40 percent that he does not care about average Americans;
65 – 30 percent that he is not level-headed;
61 – 36 percent that he is a strong person;
54 – 40 percent that he is intelligent;
61 – 34 percent that he does not share their values.
He’s over in Davos right now telling world leaders they’d better kiss his ass or else.
He will not be disrespected.
