Trump Begins Presidency With About Half The Approval Rating Of Obama, Bush And Clinton

Facts Are Stubborn Things
The truth is that on a critical issue, we are more united today than most people may realize, but not in a way Donald Trump likes. His approval ratings have plummeted to dramatic and historic pre-Inauguration lows:
ABC News/Washington Post: 40 percent – Compare that to the three most recent presidents-elect immediately prior to their inaugurations: Obama – 80 percent; George W. Bush – 72 percent; Clinton – 81 percent.
Every major poll confirms Trump’s dismal standing with the American people:

Trump famously ignores or denies the accuracy of polls that disfavor him, as he did in this Jan. 17 tweet: “The same people who did the phony election polls, and were so wrong, are now doing approval rating polls. They are rigged just like before.”

That’s Trump’s “Three-Ds Strategy” in action: deflect, divert and distract. Although pre-election polls missed on individual state totals that determined the Electoral College results, they got the popular vote outcome about right: he lost by 2 percent compared to the final average of all pre-election polls that had him behind by 3 — well within the polls’ 3 percent margin of error. Giving Trump the benefit of the same margin barely moves the needle.
Former career pollster Kellyanne Conway and Republicans in Congress surely grasp the harsh truth. Already a historic popular vote loser, Trump is rapidly becoming a regret for many of those who voted for him. As the Republican Party’s albatross, he grows heavier by the hour.
