CNN Poll: Trump's approval at 100 days lower than any president in at least seven decades

Donald Trump won back the Oval Office and took charge of the government amid the strongest poll numbers of his political career, but as the 100-day mark of his presidency approaches, Americans’ views of what he’s done so far have turned deeply negative, a new CNN poll conducted by SSRS finds.

Trump’s 41% approval rating is the lowest for any newly elected president at 100 days dating back at least to Dwight Eisenhower – including Trump’s own first term.

Approval of Trump’s handling of the presidency is down 4 points since March, and 7 points lower than it was in late February. Just 22% say they strongly approve of Trump’s handling of the job, a new low, and about twice as many say they strongly disapprove (45%).

Since March, Trump has seen notable drops in approval from women and Hispanic Americans (down 7 points in each group to 36% among women and 28% among Hispanics). Partisan views of Trump remain broadly polarized, with 86% of Republicans approving and 93% of Democrats disapproving. But among political independents, the president’s approval rating has dipped to 31%, matching his first-term low point with that group and about the same as his standing with them in January 2021.

"Donald Trump won back the Oval Office and took charge of the government amid the strongest poll numbers of his political career,"

Did everyone just forget how he fucked up during the 1st term? I mean, his incompetence on COVID led to hundreds of thousands of unnecessary deaths because he didn't want to listen to the people who know the science of communicable diseases.

Be very suspicious when it comes. TrumpCo will declare martial law and opposers will be arrested.

And then "we the people" will have to decide what to do.
