Poll: Trump Drops To Historic Low 37% Approval Rating As 65% Say He's Accomplished "Little Or Nothing"

A new ABC News/Washington Post poll shows Donald Trump, one year after his surprise election, has the lowest approval rating of any president at the nine-month mark going back over seventy years to 1946.

Only 37% of those surveyed approve of the job Trump is doing versus 59% who disapprove. That's a negative 22 point deficit.

The only other president to have a negative deficit in modern times at this point in their presidency was Gerald Ford, who had pardoned President Richard Nixon.

More from ABC News:

• Fifty-five percent say he’s not delivering on his major campaign promises, up sharply from 41 percent in April, at his 100-day mark.

• Views of Trump as a “strong leader” have plummeted by 13 percentage points, from 53 percent at 100 days to 40 percent today -- lower than the worst rating on this question for either of his two predecessors throughout their two terms in office.

• As the president travels in Asia, a remarkable 67 percent of Americans don’t trust him to act responsibly in handling the situation involving North Korea -- up 5 points from September. Also relevant to his travels, a majority, 53 percent, now says America’s leadership in the world has gotten weaker under Trump.

• Two-thirds (65 percent) also now say he’s accomplished anywhere from “not much” to “little or nothing” as president -- up from 56 percent who said so after his first 100 days, and sharply contradicting the president’s own claims to be highly productive.

• Again two-thirds (66 percent) say Trump lacks the personality and temperament it takes to serve effectively as president, and essentially as many (65 percent) say he’s not honest and trustworthy.
