Full Headline:
Trump in trouble as nearly two-thirds of Americans disapprove of his handling of COVID-19, protests, Russia: POLL



Nearly two-thirds of Americans disapprove of President Donald Trump's handling of three major challenges facing the country -- the coronavirus pandemic, nationwide unrest over racial inequality and relations with Russia -- in a new ABC News/Ipsos poll, a sign of the obstacles that his reelection bid faces just three months before Election Day.

With the White House confronting the most significant reckoning on race since the civil rights movement of the 1960s, the worst public health crisis in a century, and a hostile Russia reminiscent of the Cold War, Americans have little confidence in the job Trump is doing in all three of these major areas.

Trump closes out the month of July the way it began, with his approval on the coronavirus in the low 30s. His approval sits at 34%, right about where it was earlier this month (33%) when it reached a new low since ABC News/Ipsos began surveying on the virus in March.



In the new poll, which was conducted by Ipsos in partnership with ABC News using Ipsos' Knowledge Panel, Trump's approval is also deeply underwater -- at 36% -- for how he is handling both the protests over racial inequality and relations with one of the country's greatest geopolitical foes, Russia.

I don’t know if that’s been included in any of the other polls that I’ve seen. The fact that it’s being mentioned sort of sways the poll but it’s definitely bad bad bad news for Trump.

... keep digging; double, triple down the lies and the corruption, slow down the testing and the mail.

That's all he's got and 30-35% are all for his destruction of the country (what Putin wants).
