A Navigator tracking poll finds President Trump is now under water on his handling of the coronavirus outbreak this week, Trump saw a 13-point swing in his net approval on his handling of the pandemic, from 52% to 42% (+10) to 47% to 50% (-3).
Key finding: Trump is wildly out of step with Americans with his new push to relax social distancing. Only 5% say we should roll back precautions, even at the expense of economic losses, while 74% say we should wait however long it takes for public health experts to say its safe, including 70% of Republicans.
