There are some low 20s for specific personality traits.
So basically he's confirming people's fears, which some then put aside to give him a chance.
W got to 22% by the end, above his record low of 20%. http://www.cbsnews.com/news/bushs-final-approval-rating-22-percent/
So Trump could go quite a bit lower. Bigly.
