:largeIf Trump sinks any lower, he will be one of just six presidents to do so, as Johnson and Reagan bottomed out at 35%.
Here's a list of the presidents who hit 35% or lower in the Gallup approval rating, with how many days it took them to get there:
Trump | 69 days
Truman | 524 days
Reagan | 741 days
Carter | 851 days
H.W. Bush | 1,283 days
Nixon | 1,659 days
Johnson | 1,725 days
W. Bush | 1,926 days
Trump's past week featured the failure of the American Health Care Act, the Republican healthcare bill that was pulled from the House floor Friday after it became clear it did not have enough votes to pass. Also last week, FBI Director James Comey confirmed publicly that the bureau was investigating Trump associates in connection with Russia's attempts to meddle in the 2016 presidential election.
