President Donald Trump’s approval ratings are at their lowest since he took office, according to a poll by NBC News and the Wall Street Journal released Sunday.

According to the survey, 38 percent of respondents—five points less than in September—approved of Trump’s job performance, while 58 percent disapproved.

The NBC/WSJ survey was conducted from Oct. 23-26 from a sample of 900 adults, with a margin of error of plus or minus 3.27 percentage points.

it's reflective of the astounding lack of perspective that exists in the world of Trumpy's supporters. These people have no idea what's in the Constitution, what's in the Declaration of Independence, what's in the historical account of the founding of the nation. But the 38% are also an indication of the ease with which a democratic republic can be converted into a fascist dictatorship. Trumpy is making nearly all of the right moves toward that goal. His problem is that he's not willing to incorporate assassinations as part of his game plan. Yet. If he does, it will be outsourced and bankrolled by Putin. For a price.
