Trump’s Job Approval Stands at Just 44 Percent as Partisan Splits Reign
by Carrie Dann

President Donald Trump's job approval rating stands at just 44 percent — a record low for a newly inaugurated commander-in-chief — and half of Americans say that his early challenges suggest unique and systemic problems with his administration, according to a new poll from NBC News and the Wall Street Journal.

In the poll, conducted February 18-22, 48 percent of Americans said they disapprove of Trump's performance as president and 32 percent said that his first month in office demonstrates that he is not up to the job. Asked about early challenges in the first month of his presidency, 52 percent called the issues "real problems" that are specific to his administration, while 43 percent of Americans attributed them to typical "growing pains" for any new president.

Don't you feel that America is on the wrong track?

Since the election the polls show the percent thinking America is on the right track has doubled from just 20% to 40%.

This poll is the lowest poll rating recorded than any modern day president ever received, 30 days in his presidency. WOW!!!

Forty-five percent (45%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey for the week ending February 23.

That’s down a point from the previous week. This is the fifth week in a row that this finding has been in the mid-40s after running in the mid- to upper 20s for much of 2016. The latest finding is higher than any week during the Obama presidency.

Obama took office during the greatest recession since the Great Depression. Trump was handed a economy that had A record 75 straight months of job growth of 4.9% to 5.0% and a growing economy under Obama http://money.cnn.com/2017/01/06/news/econo...

How will History judge President Obama, now you got the numbers.

Well, do you feel that America is on the right track?

As far as HBCU, Every little bit helps.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Tuesday, February 28th 2017 at 4:44PM

From what I just learned, there is ZERO new dollars.

Steve Williams Tuesday, February 28th 2017 at 5:28PM

The president is signing a measure that will move the government’s program for promoting historically black colleges and universities, called HBCUs, from the Education Department to direct oversight by the White House.

As far as the right track, I've had grave concerns for many years.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Tuesday, February 28th 2017 at 6:04PM

Time will tell...

As far as the right track, as far as voting rights for Black people in Texas, that went the wrong way already.

September 11, 2001 took things to a new level.

Dea. Ron Gray Sr. Tuesday, February 28th 2017 at 8:16PM

2017 will take it to another level.
