Quinnipiac - Trumps down to 35 - 57 job approval.

American voters give President Donald Trump a negative 35 - 57 percent job approval, with negative approval among men and white voters, leaving him below former President Barack Obama's worst approval rating, a negative 38 - 57 percent in 2013, according to a Quinnipiac University national poll released today.

Men disapprove 51 - 39 percent;
Republicans approve 79 - 14 percent;
White voters disapprove 48 - 43 percent.
Disapproval is 63 - 31 percent among women, 91 - 6 percent among Democrats, 57 - 32 percent among independent voters and 77 - 16 percent among non-white voters.

American voters' opinions of some of Trump's personal qualities are mostly negative:
61 - 34 percent that he is not honest;
55 - 40 percent that he does not have good leadership skills;
57 - 39 percent that he does not care about average Americans;
66 - 29 percent that he is not level-headed;
64 - 33 percent that he is a strong person;
60 - 35 percent that he is intelligent;
61 - 34 percent that he does not share their values.

My faith in the intelligence of our electorate was so low, this is an improvement for me. His earlier polls scared the living crap out of me, I have to admit.

You can be the worst person ever elected to the presidency in the post-civil rights era, and still get 35% of the vote.
