Just 36% would vote for Prez again
LITTLE MORE than one-third of Americans would vote for President Trump if he runs for reelection in 2020, according to an NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll released Wednesday.
A scant 18% of people surveyed said they would “definitely” support Trump if he runs in 2020. Another 18% said they would “probably” vote for him. Although 2020 is still a small dot on the political horizon, and it’s unclear who will emerge as the Democratic nominee — or even if Trump will face a primary challenge — a full 38% of respondents said they will be voting for someone other than Trump.
As he approaches the one-year mark, Trump’s approval rating — 35% — is at a historic low. No other President since Dwight Eisenhower has had an approval rating below 49% in December of his first year in office.
The poll also found one-third of Americans say the country is better off now than when Trump came in, and 45% say it’s worse off.
