February 22, 2017 - Trump Slumps As American Voters Disapprove 55% - 38% Quinnipiac University National Poll Finds; Voters Trust Media, Courts More Than President
https://poll.qu.edu/national/release-detail?ReleaseID=2431
American voters today give President Donald Trump a negative 38 - 55 percent job approval rating, his worst net score since he took office, down from a negative 42 - 51 percent approval rating in a February 7 Quinnipiac University national poll.
President Trump's negative scores are 36 - 59 percent among women and 41 - 50 percent among men, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University Poll finds. Republicans approve 83 - 10 percent, while negative approval ratings are 5 - 91 percent among Democrats and 38 - 55 percent among independent voters.
Trump gets a negative 39 - 55 percent favorability rating, also his worst net score since taking office. Vice President Mike Pence gets a split 41 - 40 percent favorability.
Opinions on most of Trump's personal qualities also are negative, as American voters say:
55 - 40 percent that he is not honest;
55 - 42 percent that he does not have good leadership skills;
53 - 44 percent that he does not care about average Americans;
63 - 33 percent that he is not level-headed;
64 - 32 percent that he is a strong person;
58 - 38 percent that he is intelligent;
60 - 37 percent that he does not share their values.
Trump is doing more to unite the country, 36 percent of American voters say, while 58 percent say he is doing more to divide the nation.
"President Donald Trump's popularity is sinking like a rock," said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll.
"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."
A total of 38 percent of American voters think they can trust Trump to do what is right "almost all of the time" or "most of the time," and 61 percent think they can trust Trump to do what is right "some of the time" or "hardly ever."
In contrast, 58 percent of voters think they can trust U.S. courts to do what is right "almost all of the time" or "most of the time," and 40 percent think they can trust the courts to do what is right "some of the time" or "hardly ever."
American voters approve 59 - 38 percent of court actions blocking Trump's executive order on immigration.
Looking at Trump's immigration proposals, voters oppose:
49 - 43 percent "suspending immigration from 'terror prone' regions ...;"
53 - 45 percent suspending for 90 days all travel to the U.S. by citizens from seven Middle Eastern nations;
60 - 37 percent suspending for 120 days immigration of all refugees to the U.S. from any nation;
68 - 27 percent suspending indefinitely all immigration to the U.S. of Syrian refugees. President Trump and the Media
A total of 90 percent of American voters say it is "very important" or "somewhat important" "that the news media hold public officials accountable."
Voters disapprove 50 - 45 percent of the way the news media has covered Trump.
But voters disapprove 61 - 35 percent of the way Trump talks about the media.
And voters trust the media more than Trump 52 - 37 percent "to tell you the truth about important issues."
"The media, so demonized by the Trump Administration, is actually a good deal more popular than President Trump," Malloy said.
Voters approve 47 - 41 percent of the way Trump is handling the economy. Looking at his handling of other issues, voters:
Disapprove 56 - 36 percent of the way he is handling foreign policy;
44 percent approve of his handling of terrorism, as 49 percent disapprove;
Disapprove 58 - 40 percent of the way he is handling immigration issues.
From February 16 - 21, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,323 voters nationwide with a margin of error of +/- 2.7 percentage points. Live interviewers call landlines and cell phones.
The Quinnipiac University Poll, directed by Douglas Schwartz, Ph.D., conducts public opinion surveys in Pennsylvania, New York, New Jersey, Connecticut, Florida, Ohio, Virginia, Iowa, Colorado and the nation as a public service and for research.

I dont like polls, not since Mittens lost in 2012
The look on Roves face as he denied the count still haunts me today, in a happy haunty way, but he was so sure of his information, Dick Morris was too, it was a monumental cluster fuck on their behalf, and the same in 16, the polls got it wrong way to often to be taken reliably...mostly because of the lack of numbers included and methods ...so Im not crowing about the numbers
but here are the latest figures from RCP released today...
President Trump Job Approval Quinnipiac Approve 38, Disapprove 55 Disapprove +17
President Trump Job Approval McClatchy/Marist Approve 41, Disapprove 49Disapprove +8
President Trump Job Approval Gallup Approve 42, Disapprove 52 Disapprove +10
President Trump Job Approval Rasmussen Reports Approve 51, Disapprove 49Approve +2
Signs that dems are getting up and doing something is more reliable... I hope it turns into a good movement, a viable party, otherwise its gonna be a very very hard four years. No matter how crazy the Scrotus gets.
