Donald Trump Given 'F' Rating by Americans After 100 Days

https://www.newsweek.com/donald-trump-given-f-rating-americans-after-100-days-2065546

President Donald Trump was given an "F" rating for the first 100 days of his second term in the White House, according to a new poll.

The survey, conducted by NPR/PBS/Marist Poll between April 21 and 23, revealed that 46 percent of registered voter respondents chose "F" when asked to grade Trump's performance so far.

That was nearly double the second-highest grade chosen, with 24 percent of respondents grading Trump "A."

The poll was conducted on 1,439 adults and had a margin of error of +/- 3.3 percentage points.

Why It Matters
Trump's approval ratings have been sinking since he introduced his "Liberation Day" tariffs earlier this month, which saw the markets plummet around the world.

The latest CNN/SSRS poll, conducted between April 17-24 among 1,678 adults, revealed that 41 percent of respondents approved of Trump's job performance, while 59 percent disapproved.

That was the lowest approval rating for any newly elected president at 100 days dating back to Dwight Eisenhower – including Trump's own first term, according to CNN.

In the latest Fox News poll, conducted between April 18-21 among 1,104 registered voters, Trump's net approval sank to -10 points, with 44 percent approving and 55 percent disapproving. This was down from -2 points in March.

What To Know
In the NPR/PBS/Marist Poll survey, Trump's negative rating was driven mostly by Democrats, with 80 percent giving him a "F" grade. Meanwhile, 49 percent of independents gave the president a "F" grade.

Among Republicans, 54 percent gave Trump an "A" grade, and a further 29 percent gave him a "B."

Overall, 17 percent of respondents gave Trump a "B" grade, eight percent chose "C," and seven percent opted for "D."

I sign petitions compulsively, so get junk mail from shitty FL Repukes. Vern Buchanan wanted to know how we rated Combover Caligula in his first 100 days and I was pleasantly surprised I wasn't the only troublemaker here in Florida. 😏
