A majority of voters in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll say Donald Trump has achieved little in the first year after his upset win in the 2016 presidential election, yet most think the Democratic Party isn’t presenting alternatives.
Trump’s approval rating stood at 37 percent, the lowest for any president at this point in their first term in polling data going back to 1946, ABC said on Sunday. Half of those who disapprove do so “strongly,” another high -- and twice as many say they strongly approve of Trump’s performance.
