The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 38% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Sixty-two percent (62%) disapprove.

The latest figures for Trump include 25% who Strongly Approve of the way Trump is performing and 50% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -25. (see trends).

-snip-

Trump’s overall approval numbers this week are lower than any Barack Obama received during his entire presidency.

These are the rabid Trumpsters. That number being at 25% is already much lower than many predicted it could be.

My prediction is that his floor is 15% overall approval. And strongly approve will be just below that, there are less than 1 in 6 Americans who are truly deplorable.

Each and every one of his core supporters would have gone bat shit crazy if Obama said anything close to that.
