President Trump's Disapproval Rating Has Hit an All-Time High (ABC news/Washington Post Poll)
President Trumps disapproval rating has hit an all-time high.
According to a new ABC News/Washington Post poll released Friday, 60% of those surveyed disapprove of Trumps performance in officethe highest of his presidency. Just 36% approve, which is on par with his all-time low.
The last ABC News/Washington Post poll, conducted in April, put his approval rating at 40% and disapproval rating at 56%. ABC reports that Trumps average approval rating is the lowest of any president since the 1940s.
The poor showing in this most recent poll, however, may not come as a total surprise. It was conducted Aug. 26 to 29just a week after Trumps former campaign chairman Paul Manafort was convicted of tax fraud and former lawyer Michael Cohen admitted that he violated campaign finance laws at Trumps behest.
