Poll: Trump hits new lows in approval, base enthusiasm at 200-day mark

In a new Morning Consult/POLITICO survey, 40 percent of registered voters said they approve of Trump’s job performance, while 55 percent disapprove, including 84 percent of Democrats and 57 percent of independents. It puts the president 15 points underwater — the largest deficit recorded since his Jan. 20 inauguration.

And while Trump says his base is getting stronger, the data suggests otherwise: Eighty-one percent of Trump voters and 76 percent of Republicans said they approve of his job performance, both new lows in Morning Consult polling. It’s not just the share of base support that is declining either — enthusiasm is also trending in the wrong direction for the president.
