Donald Trump is panicking as it has become official.

0:03.0

Donald Trump has the worst approval rating in United States history,

0:08.0

worse than Richard Nixon before Nixon resigned.

0:13.0

Let me share with you the results of some of the latest polling right now

0:17.0

that has Donald Trump as the least popular president in U.S. history.

0:22.3

Here's what Harry Enton had to say earlier. Let's play it.

0:25.3

Good. No, the cake is getting baked and what's being baked and daisies.

0:30.7

I'll tell you that much. I mean, just take a look here. Okay, Trump's not approving.

0:34.7

You know, a lot of stuff has happened over the last few months. Has any of that really lifted Trump from record lows for these given pollsters or second record lows?

0:43.6

Not really. I mean, just take a look here. The Washington Post, his all-time lowest, there's minus 25 points back in April in terms of his net approval,

0:50.8

minus disapproval. Now it's the second worst, tied for the second worst of all time at minus 24 points. CNBC was at his second lowest level

0:58.7

at minus 18 points, and now he's at the record low for him in CNBC, minus 19 points. When you

1:05.1

put it together, what essentially is going on is there are a lot of events in the world,

1:09.0

All right, I mean, I suppose you could say if you're a Republican, the good news is not getting worse, but you actually needed to be getting better. Correct. These are horrible numbers, Johnny B. So put it in historical perspective. Yeah, just how horrible are these numbers. I mean, it's the worst this century for a president at this point in the second term when you look at an average of the CNBC in Washington Post Post. I mean, we're talking about right here the average of CNBC in Washington Post, minus 22 points. Barack Obama was underwater, but not anywhere near this level. He was at minus 8. And George W. Bush, in the middle of the Iraq war,

1:46.0

when that was going south, he was at minus 20 points.

1:49.0

So at this point, Donald John Trump is, in fact,

1:52.0

holding the record for the lowest net approval rating

1:56.0

for a president in a second term at this point in the second term

1:59.0

of any president in the 21st century.

2:02.8

And if you think that's bad.

2:04.4

And if you think this is bad, what is driving this number?

2:07.8

It's independence, baby.
