President Donald Trump’s approval rating among voters with a high school education or less has fallen to an all-time low, according to new polling, raising fresh questions about whether the president is losing ground with one of his most reliable political constituencies.

The latest figures from Echelon Insights show Trump is now firmly underwater with this group—marking a dramatic reversal from the early months of his second term, when he enjoyed strong positive ratings among less-educated voters.

    That chart shows a TREND of a delta, not an actual approval rating

    Really? I totally thought -20% of people approved of him, that would have totally made sense and been a real thing that could happen /s

    So overall approval rate is 38% for the less educated it’s 41%, that’s the same as we’ve seen every fucking single time there’s an approval poll.

    Not true, you say it yourself

    Trump was down to 32% approval at some point,

    In one poll (which, btw, now has him at 30%, because different samples and different methodologies produce different results

    If you look at the trend within basically every set of polls out there he has definitely gotten continuously less popular every month with everyone

    e; Apologies if I was an ass in this or other comments in this thread, but the way that a lot of people talk about polls and how they’re reported makes me lose my mind because I believe being able to have informed conversations about public opinion is really important to a healthy democracy and I think we have lost that a lot in the last 15 years and that’s a big part of why everything is so screwed up right now
