Trump the most unpopular US president since 1945

United States President Donald Trump is the most unpopular US president since the World War according to a poll comparing the first 69-days of Trump and 12 past presidents.

The poll by FiveThirtyEight shows that Trump had a negative net approval rating of -11.1 percent.

No other president had a negative net approval rating with President Gerald Ford having the lowest net approval rating of 19.2 percent while Harry Truman had a net approval rating of a staggering 84 percent.

Trump said during his election campaign he would deal with President Robert Mugabe if he is elected.

“Mugabe and Museveni must be put on notice that their days are numbered and I am going to arrest them and lock them in prison,” he told war veterans in Washington during his election campaign.

“If the past American administrators have failed to stop these two despots, I will personally do it.”

He has not done anything yet.
