Maddow Surprised by Trump Approval Ratings ‘Sinking Like a Cinderblock’

MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow said Thursday that Donald Trump’s historically poor approval ratings for a newly inaugurated president are “sinking like a cinderblock in the ocean” due to the unpopularity of many of his policies.

Last month, Trump again became the only elected president with an initial approval rating of under 50 percent. Additionally, his disapproval rating in January of 48 percent was three points higher than in the beginning of his first term.

Currently, Trump’s approval rating is 45 percent—two points below his January mark. “We probably should have seen this coming,” Maddow said.
