Trump Hits New Low With White Non-College Voters
Trump Hits New Low With White Non-College Voters
August 3, 20175:00 AM ET
President Trump hit a record low approval in a new poll from Quinnipiac University only 33 percent of Americans now approve of the president (margin of error +/- 3.4 percentage points). Buried in that poll is one sign of where he's losing that support: For the first time, the poll showed Trump with a negative net approval rating among white Americans without a college degree.
Because of their stalwart support of Trump, especially as opposed to their college-graduate peers, whites without college degrees (or "blue-collar whites" or "working-class whites"
became an obsession during the presidential election. Indeed, whites without a college degree have sharply shifted Republican over the last two presidential election cycles.
But last week, that support slipped.
