FOR RELEASE: JANUARY 26, 2017
TRUMP STARTS IN THE HOLE AS U.S. VOTERS DISAPPROVE,
QUINNIPIAC UNIVERSITY NATIONAL POLL FINDS;
REAGAN, OBAMA ARE BEST PRESIDENTS IN 70 YEARS
President Donald Trump begins his term with a negative 36 – 44 percent job approval rating from
American voters, including a negative 33 – 50 percent rating from women, according to a
Quinnipiac University national poll released today. Another 19 percent are undecided.
President Barack Obama scored a positive 59 – 25 percent approval rating in his first postinaugural poll by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University on March 4, 2009.
There are party, gender, age and racial gaps in President Trump’s approval rating:




Republicans approve 81 – 3 percent, while Democrats disapprove 77 – 4 percent and
independent voters disapprove 45 – 35 percent;
Men approve 41 – 38 percent, as women disapprove 50 – 33 percent;
Voters 18 to 34 years old disapprove 51 – 26 percent and voters 35 to 49 years old
disapprove 53 – 30 percent, but voters 50 to 64 years old approve 47 – 33 percent and
voters over 65 are divided 41 – 41 percent;
White voters approve by a narrow 43 – 40 percent, while non-white voters disapprove
55 – 20 percent.
Americans are optimistic 53 – 43 percent about the next four years with Trump as president
and say 44 – 36 percent that he will help rather than hurt the nation’s economy.
President Trump will be a worse president than Barack Obama, 50 percent of American
voters say, and 37 percent say he will be a better president.
Trump will be a “great” president, 18 percent of voters say; 25 percent say he will be a
“good” president; 16 percent say he will be “not so good” and 36 percent say he will be “bad.”
“Stumbling out of the blocks, President Donald Trump is considered a divider not a
uniter, flunking on honesty, empathy and level headedness, while his predecessor sees his legacy
burnished by better and better numbers every polling cycle,” said Tim Malloy, assistant director
of the Quinnipiac University Poll. “But voters are optimistic in general and confident he will
help the economy.”

68 – 29 percent that he is a strong person;
65 – 32 percent that he is intelligent.
