President Trump's approval rating stands at 38% according to a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll, a drop of 5% since September and the lowest mark of Trump's presidency so far. 58% of Americans disapprove of Trump's performance.
- The splits: Democrats (7% approve/89% disapprove), Republicans (81%/17%), Independents (34%/57%).
- The trend: The biggest drops came among independents, whites and, more specifically, whites without college degrees — a key element of Trump's base.
- The surprise low point: Among all the issues surveyed (hurricane responses, North Korea, health care, etc.), the highest percentage (59%) disapproved of Trump's stance on NFL players protesting during the anthem.
