A new poll released Sunday morning shows that 61 per cent of Americans believe President Donald Trump has done more to divide the country than his two predecessors. In the ABC News/Washington Post poll, 35 per cent of 1,006 respondents said Trump has united the country during his presidency, while 61 per cent say he has further divided the nation. The survey has a margin of error of 3.5 percentage points among Americans and 4 percentage points among registered voters. Trump’s rating on uniting the country from the poll falls behind his two predecessors, President Barack Obama and President George W. Bush. In June 2005, 43 per cent of Americans said then-President George W. Bush had brought the country together and 55 per cent said he had divided it.
