Trump’s approval PLUNGES: How the Iran war is ‘EATING his presidency’

An analysis by The New York Times shows President Trump’s most recent polling numbers have hit new lows heading into the midterms. The piece highlights several new polls in recent days that find barely a third of Americans approve of the job Trump is doing as the war in Iran continues and gas prices remain high. The president’s poll numbers are currently at or near the lowest they have ever been in some non-partisan surveys. The latest polling indicates Trump is now all but the most unpopular second term president at this state of their tenure in the history of polling going back to the 1940’s, with the exception of Richard Nixon who was just days away from resigning over the Watergate scandal at this time during his second term. The Morning Joe panel discusses the president’s consistently falling poll numbers and why Rich Lowry with the National Review writes that “The Iran War is Eating Trump’s Presidency.”
