Quinnipiac poll: Trump approval hits new low

Source: The Hill



BY NIKITA VLADIMIROV - 02/22/17 02:38 PM EST

President Trump's approval rating has slipped to 38 percent, a new national poll finds.

The Quinnipiac University survey released on Wednesday says that only 38 percent of Americans approve of Trump's job performance, while 55 percent disapprove of the commander in chief. According to Quinnipiac, the 17-point difference in Trump's approval rating is the worst he's fared in a poll since taking office in January.

An earlier survey from the pollster this month registered Trump with 42 percent approval and 51 percent disapproval.

“President Trump’s popularity is sinking like a rock," Tim Malloy, the assistant director of the poll, said in a statement announcing the findings. "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.”

He’s an intelligent strong person that is not level-headed and does not share our values. He does not care about average Americans, does not possess good leadership skills and is not honest.

So basically tRump is a lying bully.
