President Donald Trump's popularity among American voters is once again in decline, falling back to the historic lows that have marked the first eight months of his White House tenure.

The president’s approval rating hovers at 38.8 percent, according to a weighted average the polling site FiveThirtyEight released Wednesday morning. That total reflects a dip among several daily tracking polls, including from CBS News (35 percent), Gallup (39 percent) and Trump's favorite (and more favorable) right wing polling site, Rasmussen Reports (43 percent).

The decline appears to have started during the weekend, when Trump sparked controversy over his use of Twitter to condemn protests within the NFL against police brutality and racial inequality during televised national anthems at the beginnings of games.

4. Why did it go up then back down?

I guess I'm just continually perplexed by these persons, whoever they are, who just measure their approval or disapproval based on what Trump did today. Like they have no opinion or knowledge of policy. I'm assuming these are adults right?

Maybe they heard about him saying he grabs pussies or something about Mexicans - whatever- but that was a long time ago like earlier than yesterday...
