Americans Wary of Trump, Want Russia Investigation

Last week was not a good week for President Donald Trump. Things are not looking much better.

The newest batch of approval ratings from Gallup are out today, and President Trump is demonstrating a consistently-downward trend. Check out how Trump’s approval ratings stack up to his predecessors at a similar time in their respective administrations:

   Barack Obama:     64%
   George W. Bush:  56%
   Bill Clinton:            45%
   Donald Trump:     38%

Yeah, that’s not good…and it’s probably going to get worse. Results from a separate NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll were released on Sunday showing that 78% of Americans would like to see a “special investigator” assigned to look into potential collaboration between Russian officials and Trump’s campaign for President.
