Polls

Independent, UK -  President Donald Trump’s disapproval rating among registered Republicans has climbed to 10 percent, marking the first time i he has hit double‑digit disapproval among GOP voters, a new poll found.

In contrast, a large majority of Republicans, 86 percent, continue to approve of his performance in office.

The new poll from Quinnipiac University shows a modest increasing trend among his disapproval. In August, 9 percent of Republicans disapproved of Trump, up slightly from 8 percent in July. Beyond views on Trump himself, the survey also touched on attitudes toward other key figures in the administration.

For example, 11 percent of Republicans disapprove of Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., 10 percent disapprove of Kash Patel’s handling of the FBI and 11 percent disapprove of U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi.
