Rasmussen poll shows Trump with lowest approval in a year

Source: The Hill

A conservative-leaning poll released Monday showed President Trump with his lowest approval ratings in almost a year.

The Rasmussen poll found that 43 percent of likely voters polled approve of Trump's job performance, his lowest mark in the poll since January of 2018, when his approval was at 42 percent.

The poll also found that 55 percent of respondents disapprove of Trump's performance, including 46 percent who strongly disapprove. Another 32 percent strongly approve the job Trump is doing.

According to Rasmussen, Trump's approval rating has slipped since his prime-time address last week in which he claimed that a border wall is necessary to confront a "humanitarian crisis" at the border.

This poll is always an outlier and is skewed toward demographics that tend to be more supportive of Trump.
