A new survey shows Donald Trump trailing Joe Biden by 14 points ahead of the general election in November
President Donald Trump’s overall job approval rating dropped 7 percentage points over the past month, according to a survey released Monday that also shows him trailing former Vice President Joe Biden by 14 points ahead of the general election in November.showed that 38 percent of respondents said they approve of the “way Donald Trump is handling his job as president,” and a majority — 57 percent — indicated that they disapprove.
The snapshot of Americans’ assessment of Trump and registered voters’ likelihood to support him in November represents CNN’s first effort to poll opinions of the president since historic levels of racial unrest began roiling the United States late last month. That nationwide wave of protests was sparked by the killing of George Floyd, a 46-year-old black man, by a Minneapolis police officer.
Trump was criticized for insufficiently addressing Floyd’s death in the immediate aftermath of the killing, and frustration with his response escalated as he increasingly advocated the use of police and military force in some protests in cities across the country, including Washington.
