POLL: 47% Say Trump Is Not Mentally Stable

ABC News reports:



A year in the presidential spotlight hasn’t been kind to President Donald Trump: His approval rating is the lowest in modern polling for a president at this point, with deep deficits on policy and personal matters alike. Strikingly, the public divides evenly on whether or not he’s mentally stable.

That question aside, a lopsided majority, 73 percent of those polled, rejects Trump’s self-assessed genius. Seventy percent say he fails to acquit himself in a way that’s fitting and proper for a president. Two-thirds say he’s harming his presidency with his use of Twitter. And 52 percent see him as biased against blacks — soaring to 79 percent of blacks themselves.

Just 36 percent of Americans approve of Trump’s job performance, while 58 percent disapprove, essentially unchanged since midsummer. A vast 87 percent support the DACA immigration program that Trump ended and whose fate in Congress is uncertain — including two-thirds of strong conservatives, three-quarters of evangelical white Protestants and as many Republicans, core Trump groups.
