Americans Are Embarrassed To Have Trump As President



Donald Trump has still not won over the public. In fact, about 51% say they are embarrassed to have him as president (and only 27% say they are proud). And only 36% approve of how he's doing his job, while 57% disapprove. He remains a very unpopular president, and most Americans don't respect (or trust) his administration.

The charts below show why this negative opinion of him persists. Majorities in two new polls still say Trump is not honest, not level-headed, not a good leader, and doesn't care about average people in this country. Trump is going to remain in negative numbers until he changes those four perceptions. Unfortunately for him, his actions (and Twitter rants) just reinforce those perceptions.

The Quinnipiac University Poll was done between September 21st and 26th of a random national sample of 1,412 voters, with a 3.1 point margin of error.

The Economist / YouGov Poll was done between September 24th and 26th of a random national sample of 1,500 adults (including 1,254 registered voters), with a 3 point margin of error.
