HO HUM -CNN Poll: Trump approval at new low as Russia concerns grow

WASHINGTON (CNN)Donald Trump's approval rating stands at its lowest point in CNN's polling as concerns about contacts between Trump's presidential campaign and Russian operatives have grown sharply in the wake of the first indictments from the special counsel investigating Russian meddling in the US election.

Overall, just 36% say they approve of the way Trump is handling his job as president, according to a new CNN Poll conducted by SSRS, worse by one percentage point than Trump's previous low of 37%, reached in October. Disapproval has also reached a new high at 58%, with nearly half (48%) saying they strongly disapprove of the way the President is handling his job.

They use a likely voter screen but that's unlikely to explain the entire difference. It's worth 2-4 points at the very most. As you go from adults to registered to likely voters Republicans do better. Our people need to learn to get off their duffs and vote.

Can’t play the typical GOP whataboutery games - what about Obama’s bows! What about Hillary’s sniffles! - when there’s actually indictments and guilty pleas.
