40% is definitely an embarrassing approval rating.

Not sure how to read this one, NC. He could be throwing shade either way.

Does this implicate Trump? On its face of course it looks bad, but it doesn't mean he was specifically tangled up in anything. For sure, I personally have a hard time believing he participated in or sanctioned any overt Russian-state interference into the election. I have a somewhat easier time believing he was aware of some untoward associations by some of his staff and either told them to break it off/keep it away from me or just turned his head altogether.
Cards on the table. People have dropped like flies around every recent president save a few (I think Bush had one major indictment in Libby and Obama has none to date) with it only really getting close to the WH on a couple of occasions. I don't think Trump is necessarily in any legal jeopardy based upon what we know now (unless Comey's memos are really damning and Comey presents them in a very damning way), but his presidency/agenda are definitely in political jeopardy. I'm sure he's not sleeping comfortably. He'll inevitably now have to spend a good bit of his time getting deposed and interviewing with his own lawyers and team in preparation for whatever comes from the SC. You get nervous when you're on the hook for remembering exact details, dates, times, etc of meetings with people, knowing one mistep makes you like you have something to hide (and he frankly hasn't done the optics of this very well so far anyway. So we'll see. I think Flynn will turn out to be the pitch he wants back in a big, big way. And that was such an unforced error. Manafort, like I said, I'm not really keyed in on, but he apparently has some potentially serious problems. I don't think Carter Page and a few of these other guys are going to matter much.

This very likely will not touch Trump.
My reference was to Comey.

You realize this same poll puts Republican favorability even lower right?
Posted on 5/18/17 at 7:31 pm to montanagator
While lower it also says unchanged. So Democrats are losing support within their own party. That'll play a role come 2018
