1. Who would have thunk?  People are not happy with the "Let's put a buffoon in the White House" experiment.

   A majority of voters disapprove of Donald Trump’s handling of the presidency, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released Wednesday.

   Less than five weeks into his presidency, Trump has an approval rating of 38 percent and a disapproval rating of 55 percent.

   A majority of respondents said Trump is not honest (55 percent), doesn’t have good leadership skills (55 percent) or care about everyday Americans (53 percent), isn’t level-headed (63 percent), doesn’t share their values (60 percent) and is doing more to divide the country than unite it (58 percent). However, a majority also said they believe Trump is a strong and intelligent person (64 percent and 58 percent, respectively.

   “President Donald Trump’s popularity is sinking like a rock,” said Tim Malloy, assistant director of the Quinnipiac poll. “He gets slammed on honesty, empathy, level-headedness and the ability to unite. And two of his strong points, leadership and intelligence, are sinking to new lows. This is a terrible survey one month in.”

   The only bright spot for Trump and his surrogates on this site is that it is a Quinnipiac poll, so the numbers could be off by a point or two one way or the other
