Congress job approval at 8%

President Trump’s approval numbers may be under water, but he’s significantly more popular than House Speaker Paul Ryan or House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi.

A new poll by The Economist finds Trump with a 39 percent “favorable” rating, with 23 percent holding a “very favorable” view of the president, and 16 percent “somewhat favorable.”

Forty-five percent say they have a “very unfavorable” view of Trump.

While Democrats and some Congressional Republicans may be reassured by Trump’s relatively low numbers, leaders of both parties fair significantly worse in the poll taken August 27-29.

House Speaker Paul Ryan is held in a “very favorable” light by only 6 percent of poll respondents, and a combined 26 percent view him positively.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell fairs even worse.

A combined 18 percent of Americans view him favorably.

House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s numbers aren’t any better than Ryan’s.

Only 7 percent hold a “very favorable” view of her, while 19 percent hold a “somewhat favorable” view, totaling 26 percent.

I'm surprised they are even that high now. If the R's in congress don't get their shit together soon. 2018 could see the Dems taking all possibilities away from Trump for anything.

I want to know who that 8% is? Dumbasses. What are they approving of? Doing nothing? Congressional Republicans ARE part and parcel to Trump's problem. They may as well be Democrats.

McCainDon't even get me started on McCain. He's not a conservative, and has been a pain in the GOP's ass on an ongoing basis. Being a Republican in Arizona must be like being one in CA.

And I agree with Trump on this one. No slight to McCain's service. However, as a warrior, he was a failure. He crashed three multi-million dollar planes, the last landing him in Hanoi. I don't recall getting captured due to my own inability to operate my weapons systems being on my list of shit to do.
