President Donald Trump’s approval rating sank to a new low in a NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released Sunday, with only 38% of voters approving of the president’s job performance and 58% disapproving. Sunday’s poll marks Trump’s lowest numbers from an NBC/WSJ poll so far, with his lowest poll previously being 39% approval in May. The NBC poll has often rated Trump higher than other presidential polls, which have published approval ratings as low as 33%. Trump’s low approval rating is the lowest for any president in modern history at this point in their presidency, NBC News noted. In the autumn of their first terms, President Barack Obama had a 51% approval rating, President George W. Bush had an 88% approval rating and President Bill Clinton had a 47% approval rating, according to the NBC/WSJ poll.
