Pres. Trump has slipped by five percentage points on his handling of the economy, per new ABC News/WaPo poll, from 51% approval in midsummer to 46% now.

Six in 10 Americans say a recession is likely in the next year and as many are concerned about higher prices because of the trade war with China, helping to knock 6 points off President Donald Trump’s job approval rating in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll.

In another measure, Trump gets far more criticism than credit for his economic stewardship. Americans by nearly a 3-1 margin, 43-16%, say his trade and economic policies have increased rather than decreased the chance of a recession in the next year. That said, looking just at Republicans and Republican-leaning independents – “leaned Republicans” – shows the risk that negative economic attitudes pose to Trump. His approval rating is 58% among leaned Republicans who are concerned that the trade dispute with China will raise the price of things they buy, compared with 90% among those who are less worried about that outcome.

The president’s overall approval rating continues to vary widely among groups. Among the sharpest declines, he’s lost 10 points since July among urban residents, 9 points among college graduates and 8 points among women.

BULLSHIT!

Fake news

LetYangSpeak

Let Bernie speak! Why aren't you treating him like the frontrunner he is? He should be getting as much time as Biden and Warren.

And then there's this When They Tell You Trump Won't Win In 2020, Just Watch What These Same idiots Said Last Time: MAGA MAGA2020

His smile is fake Never believe when he smiles He has no heart 🖤

Peace out Trump......

No one approves of his performance (ie, demeanor) but the key question in an election is what is the alternative?

Too high, I want a recount!

Not realistic...

A lot of people calling this fake news, liberal media. Didn't know that Fox, Breitbart, Newsmax, ONA were liberal.

No one I know has ever been contacted. Understand, President Trump is popular in our area, which means pollsters will not poll here since they are probably looking for a liberal friendly result All part of the plan 🤢

Keep trusting those fake biased polls

stop polling his family

FakePolls FakeNewsMedia

Finally some good news!

100% of the people know these numbers came out of fairy dust emitted from the dark souls of the Lib swamp monster. Only, the Dems smile and nod, smirking as they pretend it’s real.

Maybe do a poll on your network!! Single digit approval if your lucky!!

To those who this fake news brings joy, remember the polls having Hillary up by 16 on election night. Look at one of the Trump rallies and compare it to anything offered by the Dems. That's real enthusiasm. And it is only the tip of the iceberg.

What are the numbers from the electoral college? We all know the people’s vote doesn’t really matter!

Fake news

VoteAngryNow

You guys keep showing this dems are weshouldn’t you be open minded?

Polls 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

We will see but I call bullshit

wow this pool and info must have come from California

Your Polls?

I think 38% is being nice.

For those claiming this is fake news, here is Gallup Polls; the NON-biased polling company. The numbers are about the same. The media is not the one lying here folks.

you are wrong, most 'normal' Americans approve wholeheartedly what the President does and is doing!

let him go built more hotels but not run the country

Fake news

Keep on pushing the fakenews poll like you guys did back in 2016...you know as well as all Americans how popular President Trump has become.

He's comin' down ↘💥

Dcl_60 Fix fake news ..

Fake news. Fake poll.

This is why Republicans need to open the primaries and caucuses to candidates like former Massachusetts Gov. William Weld (R)!

All you haters better get used to President Trump, cause he's going to be your president for 5 more yrs! If you think any of those MORONS in your party can beat him, y'all are on some kind of special hallucinogen! 🤣😂 Trump2020 🇺🇸

No one asked me to take a poll... where is this poll coming from ? Lol never believe polls people!

I'm surprised it's that high, considering how anti Trump the liberal Democrat run media is...

Let's vote now ! 😂

🤣🤣🤣🖕🏻🖕🏻🖕🏻

Orange man in chief will be waking up soon and beginning his tweet storm that ends like this. FAKE NEWS! LAME STREAM MEDIA! what a clown. End the circus 11•3•2020

Well, do Americans have options other than realDonaldTrump?

On the new News/Washington Post poll, by the way I approve President Trump, but then again, they never ask me, or nobody that I know for sure!!!!

Down in the Trumps... womp womp.

Only dems answer polls! November 2020 is the only poll that counts.

MrDarkWolfe looks like they saw their 'tax returns'

How strange, it is almost as if as we approach election season that the left wing media groups are all colluding to give the impression that Trump is doing badly. Remind me, how did that go in 2016?

Yeah.. and you have Buttigieg beating Trump... what a joke you are...

a half eaten bag of cheetos would be a better president than what we have now

T's going to win because the system is rigged as he once said. Get them T!

.realDonaldTrump Everyone is laughing at you. Obama was so much more well-liked than you.

With 38%, he might be able to steal 2020. ☹️😢😱

Probably because you asked your staff

The only poll that matters is election day 2020 MAGA

Dotard is already a yesterday’s man !

Who's doing the Polls, The Democrats?😋

Is this another poll that you falsified and will require the Trump administration to threaten to sue in order for you to correct? Asking for a friend.

Great news... but 38 % is still too high... how about 10 percent or lower?

Many of those 38% are Trump cult-followers . There's nothing he could ever do to make them disapprove. They're beyond help

News/WaPo poll. LOL

BS

Fake news

Bullshit!

If 2016 is any indication, these polls should be taken with a pinch of salt. The core base will never sour on Trump, no matter what. Dims would do well to not read too much into this.

Fake news

The economy isn’t even on my list of concerns. It’s not real anyway, we made it up. The economy is nothing more than a figment of collective imagination.

Not again 😝👎 Your Poll ratings 2016 remember? 🤭

fake news

Nonsense

Is that all its dropped? What on earth is wrong with you Americans?

just checked my portfolio and it is stronger than ever. Concerned about economy? Nope. I will be if Trump loses in 2020 though.

Pure BS. It's not likely that six of ten Americans can define a recession & even if the economy was in recession, they wouldn't know unless someone told them. No credible economist is talking about recession. As usual reporters are trying to create news where there is none.

Omg. Thanks democrats for scaring ppl into thinking a recession will happen. Pathetic. The economy is booming, businesses are growing and hiring. And unlike Bills housing crisis there is no reason to think that will change in less a democrat gets elected.

We will never trust your polls again after 2016

I'm tired of seeing this guy, but if he was doing presidential things I would be supporting him real talk

Bull snot........ not even close to being true. What is your agenda

Yeah, yeah, yeah👌👌👌 how did it work out for you the last time🥳🥳🥳

Why have I NEVER ONCE personally seen one of these polls? I’ve never been asked to vote on any of this crap that these supposed “polls” claim

Trump GOP primary challenger Mark Sanford says growing field of Republican candidates strengthens anti-Trump messageFormer South Carolina Gov. Mark Sanford, who announced this weekend that he will launch a longshot primary bid for the 2020 Republican nomination, argued Monday that the growing field of Republicans challenging President Donald Trump strengthens their anti-Trump message. And Trump will win South Carolina in a landslide victory. This truly is a nothing burger. The President is mad at VP Pence. Trump said, “I KNEW NOTHING! THAT IDIOT! HE’S NOT THE PRESIDENT! HE COULD HAVE STAYED AT CLONMORE LODGE FOR $58! DAVE! NOW YOU SEE WHY I WANT TO REPLACE HIM ON THE TICKET! STUPID HICK! HE ALWAYS PISSES ON THE FLOOR OF MY BATHROOM! I HATE PENCE!” Hahahahahahaha, stop my stomach, hahahaha. Wait, he’s serious? Hahahahaha MarkSanford
