TRUMP APPROVAL RATING HAS FALLEN EVEN FURTHER AMONG MILLENNIALS AS YOUNG PEOPLE CONTINUE TO SNUB PRESIDENTBY RYAN SIT ON 1/29/18 AT 9:34 AM
Most millennials disapprove of Congress and President Donald Trump's job performance and think the country is heading in the wrong direction, a new poll found.
Sixty-three percent of millennials, aged 18-34, said they disapprove of Trump, with 46 percent of respondents saying they strongly disapprove, according to an NBC/GenForward poll, published Monday.
Just 19 percent of young people gave Trump a positive approval rating, down from 22 percent in the same poll at the start of January. But Trump wasn't the only figure in Washington to get poor marks from the country's youth. Congress, too, polled poorly with 61 percent of respondents disapproving of how federal lawmakers have handled their job.
Another nearly two-thirds of those surveyed, 63 percent, said the country is "off on the wrong track," the poll found. Just 18 percent said the United States is "generally headed in the right direction" while another 18 percent said they weren't sure.

Now, if they'll just turn out to vote we might be able to turn this around.
