Trump disapproval hits record 60%

A record 60% of Americans disapprove of the job US President Donald Trump is doing, according to Gallup's daily tracking poll.

That is slightly higher than Trump's previous disapproval threshold, which was 59% in late March, according to the poll.

Meanwhile, 36% of those surveyed in the latest tracking poll approve of the job Trump is doing, near the record low of 35% from March 28, the Hill reported.

Neither former President Barack Obama nor President Bill Clinton ever reached 60% in the survey, while George W. Bush reached the 60% disapproval mark nearly 

The daily poll of approximately 1,500 U.S. adults is conducted via telephone and has a margin of error of 3 percentage points.

A senior research fellow at the European Research Centre of the International Relations Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Vladimir Olenchenko, speaking to Vestnik Kavkaza, noted that a growing disapprove of Trump is of regional nature. "This theme is mainly active only in New York and Washington. As for the rest of the US territory, the population there does not express any super-sympathy or over-antipathy of Trump," he said.

"As president, Donald Trump should monitor the reaction to his decisions, I hope he has the opportunity to see the moods of all the US, not just of New York and Washington. Trump had a broad election program, and now he has to relate his actions with how it is perceived. The issues of intraeconomic and domestic politics were traditionally important in the US, so Trump will primarily pay his attention to stabilization and the development of the internal economic and internal political situation in the US," Vladimir Olenchenko expects.

In his estimation, Trump's impeachment can easily be launched, but it is unlikely to reach the end. "The impeachment procedure is easy to launch, but the process still has not been launched yet, which means that they do not have confidence that it will take place. The reputation is of great importance in the United States, and if the impeachment ends in nothing, its authors will lose credibility. There is a struggle against the new president, but they have not yet found real facts to present him claims," the senior research fellow at the European Research Centre of the International Relations Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences stressed.
