President Trump’s approval rating this week has dipped below the lowest numbers of former President Barack Obama Barack ObamaObama team pushing Deval Patrick presidential run North Korea targeted emails of Clinton advisers: report Putin tests Trump with counterpunch on sanctions MORE, according to a Republican-leaning polling firm’s regular tracking.
The Rasmussen Reports tracking poll for Wednesday says 38 percent of likely voters approve of the job Trump is doing as president, while 62 percent disapprove.
A quarter of those polled said they strongly approve of how Trump is performing in the White House, while 50 percent strongly disapprove.
The president, in previous months, has touted the Rasmussen poll on Twitter, calling it “one of the most accurate in the 2016 Election” while bragging about his approval rating at the time.
The president’s approval ratings in the conservative-leaning Rasmussen poll generally have been higher than in other polls.
Rasmussen Reports completes its daily tracking poll by surveying 500 likely voters each night over the phone. It reports the results on a rolling basis every three days.
The sample of 1,500 individuals has a margin of error of 2.5 percentage points.

He's such a loser. And he still has records to break, going even further down!

The only way Trump's approval rating could surprise me anymore is if it somehow finds a way to fall below zero. Anything short of that is expected, at this point

Following the 538 tracker is my personal form of stress relief.
It's like watching the country verrrrrrry slowly wake the fuck up from this self-imposed bizzaro personality cult of sheer idiocy.
