President Trump’s disapproval rating has hit a high point of 60 percent, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll that also finds that clear majorities of Americans support the special counsel’s Russia investigation and say the president should not fire Attorney General Jeff Sessions.

At the dawn of the fall campaign sprint to the midterm elections, which will determine whether Democrats retake control of Congress, the poll finds a majority of the public has turned against Trump and is on guard against his efforts to influence the Justice Department and special counsel Robert S. Mueller III’s wide-ranging probe.

This is nothing but pure propaganda to try to energize their base to vote Dem in November.

But I hope most people, including Democrats, see through this and support president Trump and vote for the Republican candidate to help Trump Make America Great Again.

Typical tactic of the pinkos who run the so-called “news” media.

Run wall to wall hate against an American 24/7 for weeks and then publish a “poll” that does nothing more than show the success of their efforts.

Always remember that polls are used to move public opinion, not to measure it.

WaPo puts Mueller and Sessions in the same basket. Tells everything that need be known.
