President Donald Trump’s approval rating slipped to a second-term low in a new poll released Tuesday, that comes as some in his base defied him to force a House vote to release of the Jeffrey Epstein files—signs his hold over the Republican Party may be fading.
Nov. 18-22 net approval rating: Trump’s approval rating fell to 38% in the latest Reuters/Ipsos survey released Tuesday, a two-point decline from its previous poll and a low-point for Trump’s second term in the groups’ weekly polls (the latest survey of 1,017 voters conducted Nov. 14-17 has a three-point margin of error).
The poll also found just 20% approve of Trump’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein files, while 70% of all adults believe the government is hiding Epstein’s alleged client list and 61% believe it’s hiding information on his death.
