Condolences are likely in order to anyone in the room when President Trump sees the latest poll numbers from Quinnipiac this morning.

According to the latest, Trump has sunk to a new low nationally to a paltry 35 percent. However, among his own party, the president is soaring at 79 percent approval.

But among other groups, the president is struggling.

  • Democrats disapproved of the president’s performance 91%, compared to 6% who approved
  • Independents disapproved 57%, compared to 32%
  • Non-white voters disapproved 77%, compared to 16%
  • White voters disapproved 48%, compared to 43%
  • Women disapproved 63%, compared to 31%
  • Men disapproved 51%, compared to 39%

To put that in perspective, it took George W. Bush eight years, two unpopular wars and a housing crisis to hit those numbers, bottoming out at 28 percent in 2008.

Trump’s handling of the failure of the American Health Care Act last month met with 64 percent disapproval, compared to 28 percent approval.

The poll also shows that the Republican president is having an effect on GOP lawmakers as well. Congress has a 70 percent disapproval rating, while only 21 percent approve of the job they’re doing.

House Speaker Paul Ryan (R – Wisc.) is currently less popular than House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D – Cali.)

It’s hard to imagine these numbers getting worse, but with Trump, it seems that the unimaginable becomes reality in short order. As Trump predicted, it seems Republicans have actually gotten tired of winning.

If the economy expands with significant job creation, this won't hurt Trump.

These poll numbers would indicate that the GOPs would lose every Senate race in 2018 and control of the House.

Yet the same thing was indicated for the WH and the Senate in 2016 and the opposite happened.

Maybe these polls are a bunch of libmedia baloney. They are proven wrong over and over again when we have elections.

Nobody believes in polls anymore. We all know they are manipulated and useless.

And anyways, who CARES what a herd of morons thinks?

Trump is doing fine. If the election were held today, he'd still be elected.

Willie the one who votes for murderers of children doesn't like Trump.

Who cares if someone going to burn in hell doesn't like Trump.

What he needs to do is bring in more family members so he can look like he's practicing the art of making a deal. Trump has always been mostly a two-bit carnival barker with a few million dollars in his back pocket. He's all guady salesmanship with shit for brains.

Will this country ever get a president who can think like Ross Perot did?
