After 60 days, just how unpopular is Donald Trump?
The president's approval rating has slumped to 37 per cent
Donald Trump’s approval rating has slumped to a new low of 37 per cent, after just two months in office.
This is by far the lowest approval rating of any early-term president on record.
At the same period in his presidency, Barack Obama enjoyed 63 per cent approval.
Approval after 60 days (Gallup)
Reagan 60%
Bush Sr 56%
Clinton 53%
Bush Jr 58%
Obama 63%
Trump 37%— ian bremmer (@ianbremmer) March 19, 2017
The lowest presidential approval rating ever recorded was 22 per cent (Harry Truman, 1952).
But with numbers like these in his first 100 days we have to ask: how low can Trump go?
