"SNIP....

A new Washington Post-ABC News poll finds public disapproval of President Trump has swelled five points to 58% over three months as a majority of Americans continue to hold him and congressional Republicans most responsible for the partial federal government shutdown.

Trump disapproval among independents is up 10 points in the last month to 63%.

Just 37% of the public currently approves of his job performance.

Polls are central to his self-image.

Historically, according to 538, drops in popularity due to government shutdowns usually end as soon as the shutdown does, but I get the feeling this one may be different.
