Public Disapproves Of Trump's Handling Of Important Issues

The chart above is from the AP / NORC Poll -- done between September 11th and 14th of a national sample of 1,108 adults, with a 4 point margin of error.

It seems the public is not happy with how Donald Trump is handling the major issues facing this country. Only two issues don't have a majority opposing Trump's handling of them -- the economy, where approval is by only 1 point (50% to 49%), which is within the margin of error -- and the military, where approval is tied with disapproval (50% to 50%).

He is underwater on all the other issues -- policing (by 9 points), foreign policy (by 9 points), health care (by 16 points), coronavirus outbreak (by 21 points), and race relations (by 22 points).

He has a 13 point deficit in his overall job performance (43% to 56%).

These are not the kind of numbers that get a president re-elected.
