Something in today's Washington Post ABC poll that we should all be concerned about: [View all]

Overall, who do you trust to do a better job handling the country's main problems - Trump or the Democrats in Congress.

Registered voters:

Trump 40%
Democrats in Congress 32%
Neither 30%
both equally 4%

The Democrats need an economic agenda for improving people's lives along with opposing Trump's overreaches.

This is in a poll where Trump's approval is 42%.
