Americans Think Trump Will Be Worst President Since Nixon

PPP's newest national poll finds Donald Trump continuing to fare poorly with the public in his first week in office. Voters split evenly in their appraisals of his job performance with 44% approving and 44% disapproving of him. These are historically awful numbers for a newly elected President. When it comes to Trump's favorability rating, only 44% of voters see him positively to 50% with a negative opinion. By contrast the women who participated in marches across the country last weekend against Trump are seen positively by 50% of voters, to just 41% who see them poorly.

This is going to be the worst case of buyer's remorse in history.

That's overestimating him. I'd say worst since Buchanon.

Yeah - Nixon went to China.  The WLB will start a war with them.

Point to note is nearly half the population still approve of him.... where's a giant asteroid when you need one?

Nixon banned chemical warfare agents, established the EPA and went to China.

Not the slavering conservatard prototype Reagan was.

Trump will be the best President in American history.

I'm pretty sure he can Trump Nixon in terms of being worse. By a long chalk. Apart from being a crook Nixon wasn't inexperienced and more importantly he had a professional team at his side, preventing the worst.

According to this poll Trump has a 59% approval rating.  http://www.rasmussenreports.com/public_c...rack_jan26

..It's also Rasmussen..and it also says a poll of "likely voters," whatever that means.

[Anomalocaris]

That's overestimating him.  I'd say worst since Buchanon.

Buchanan?

Nah.

Except for Nixon, no previous American president had ever been truly bad, mere inadequate to various, sometime prodigious, degrees. Nixon was bad, But even when compared to the sum total of nixon's badness over 5 years, trump's badness over just 6 days is ready on a altogether more heroic scale.
