Lot of luv for DT. From "USA Today". See below:

A growing majority of American aren't fans of how President Trump is doing his job, according to a new poll out Wednesday.

Per the Quinnipiac Poll, only 33% approve of how Trump is doing his job, compared to 61% who disapprove. That's down from June 29, when the poll found Trump had a 40% job approval rating, with 55% saying they disapproved.

These newest numbers are the lowest approval and highest disapproval numbers from this particular poll that Trump has received since his inauguration.

The poll also found that several negative views of the president

54% said they were embarrassed to have him as president
57% said they he was abusing the powers of his office
60% said they believed he was above the law
71% said Trump was not levelheaded
62% said Trump was not honest
63% said Trump did not have good leadership skills
59% said he did not care about average Americans
63% said he did not share their values

"It's hard to pick what is the most alarming number in the troubling trail of new lows for President Donald Trump," poll assistant director Tim Malloy said in a statement. "Profound embarrassment over his performance in office and deepening concerns over his level-headedness have to raise the biggest heads."

The poll did find two positive views of the president's traits: 58% said the president was strong and 55% said he was intelligent.

The poll surveyed 1,125 voters around the country from July 27 to Aug. 1. It has a margin of error of 3.4 points.

I hope people will recognize that making decisions based on anger only leads to trouble...

I'm surprised 55%think he's intelligent.....I don't see being deceiving as being a sign of intelligence...it takes intelligence to rise above that trait

I also don't see him as strong....Yelling, wining and complaining as well as being deceiving are traits of weakness

He a very shallow person....didn't even know Fredrick Douglas was dead....talked about him as though he was live and doing well!!!

Depends on what questions they asked, and who they asked them to.

I've had some poll questions that meant one thing to me, something different to the person doing the poll.

Do you believe the Quinnipiac Poll numbers are accurate and reflective of perception of Trump?

Below is the conservative and right leaning Rasmussen Poll which in this case does not deviate much from the Quinnipiac Poll. The numbers do not look favorable for Trump. I doubt Rasmussen slants questions biased against Trump to obtain skewed results. Bad numbers = bad numbers regardless of poll.

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Wednesday shows that 38% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Sixty-two percent (62%) disapprove.
