Donald Trump is the only President in Polling History to be underwater after 2 years in office, and he’s underwater by a mile. Usually, a President is more popular in the first years of his term than later on. The only exception to that among his polled predecessors was Reagan.
Who are they polling here? I never get a call and I would have rated him in the positive but then again I'm still waiting for that bottle of Vodka Putin promised me..
Trump is like any other President in that he has done some good things for the country and some not so good.
The only difference is that the media chooses to ignore the good while hyping and inflating the not so good.
I don't trust any polls be they from CNN or FOX and how can anyone given what happened in the lead up to the 2016 election where all the polls were wrong.
Wrong would have been if they said Trump had no chance to win. Not a one of them did. He won by 70,000 votes spread across three states--states that do NOT support him any longer, by the way. No one said he couldn't win, just that it was unlikely. And given that three million more people voted against him that for him, they weren't wrong in that assessment.
Both ABC and the Washington Post are literally anti-Trump propaganda outlets and nothing more. Both owned by people who are a part of a group who are the most hostile to Trump in the nation.
As if Leftist propaganda outlet polling has any credibility after its nature was outed in the election. As if it has any credibility after these "news" outlets have been acting to undermine our democracy and our elected official since the beginning.
Nationally recognized polling companies are often engaged by sponsors to conduct polls. One off polls are limited to a few days.
Other polls like Gallup are continuously repeated weekly and have decades of history.
During the 2016 campaign, some media organizations, like Drudge, relied on online surveys that allowed users to vote again and again.
No shortage of nationally recognized polling companies predicted the outcome of the popular vote in 2016 and all but one got it right, Hillary would win the population vote. The variation was by how many points. The LA Times poll showed Trump would win the popular vote.

It might be helpful to use a real poll. Rasmussen which skunked the ABC poll in the 2016 election, currently has the president at a 44% approval rating. And this is with the paid leftwing media hounding him 24/7 with personal attacks, fake allegations, and just plain mean lies.

Rasmussen, like all but one nationally recognized polling company, concluded Hillary the winner of the POPULAR vote. The only difference among polls was the number of points.
Rasmussen projected Republicans leading Democrats as late as 11/5, before the 2018 midterms.
Trump has demonstrated a tendency to cherry pick poll results that seem to favor him and dismiss those that don’t, not too different than most folk.

So how does that compare to the other presidents listed?
Let’s see Rasmussen’s percentages for them as well.
Otherwise, your comment is contextually meaningless.

Whenever Trump steamrolls y'all and you don't have a stock market crash to ride you through the weekend nor a government shutdown to act like y'all give a flip about, you go to your false Trump Polls, the ones that said Crooked Hillary Rodham Clinton would win by 97%.

At The 2 Year Mark, Trump is the Least Popular President Since The Advent of Polling, and it isn’t close
