President Donald Trump’s biggest supporting bloc in the country since winning the presidency last year are the same people who voted him into the Oval Office: white Americans. Meanwhile, minority demographics trailed in their approval ratings of the president, a Gallup poll released Tuesday revealed.
Above all, it was uneducated white men, usually above the age of 50, who were most likely to support Trump in his first seven weeks in Washington, D.C. Trump's overall approval rating stood at 42 percent on Wednesday since his first day in the White House, Jan. 20, according to Gallup's latest poll.
Donald Trump's Approval Rating Will Be The Worst First 100 Days For Any Modern President If They Stay The Same
While just 13 percent of black voters supported Trump, the lowest approval of any demographic accounted for in Tuesday’s poll, a majority of white men approved of the president, with 60 percent of support among the voting group also most likely to support Trump during the 2016 presidential campaign.
Other variables, including college education and gender, have historically played important roles in determining a president’s approval across the country as well. For example, the poll showed Trump was not so well-liked among women, minorities and college-educated voters.
Though 67 percent of white, non-college-graduate men approved of Trump’s first months as president, just 15 percent of nonwhite female college graduates said they supported the work Trump had accomplished so far. That number dipped to 14 percent for non-graduates in the same voting bloc.
Trump’s first weeks in office have been largely mired in controversy, with a focus on the new White House administration’s ties to the Russians overtaking most of the daily news Trump would prefer the media to report on instead. Meanwhile, his approval rating was on its way to breaking a record for the lowest

So, “old, uneducated white men” don’t have equal rights under the Constitution?

Fake Poll
In other words the people WITH A LIFETIME OF EXPERIENCE WATCHING THE GOVERNMENT SCREW THINGS UP?
You would think even the idiots in the media would be able to see what a giant sized disaster obamacare is

I was on the honor roll in 4th grade and still like President Trump...so the conclusion is totally unfounded.
If true, that in itself makes the election invalid.
Trump is not legitimate and must be resisted at all levels.
Don't ferget' "Bible thumpin' "!
over 50=no more constitutional rights...
... Old, ‘Uneducated’ White Men Are ...
.. Who our founding fathers were
It takes no brains to be a liberal ,,, that’s why there are so many around now ,, and teachers in public school can’t pass or even have to take a literacy test because it’s racist .
What do BLACK old women support?
Well, Un-indoctrinated....
I think a lot of people are still reluctant to express support for Trump when polled. They don’t want their phone number flagged or a note in their name.
.. Who our founding fathers were
Nah, they wuz edjukat'd. Juss lak mee.
I’m white, over 50 and college educated and I wholeheartedly support Trump.
