WASHINGTON – The majority of Americans disapprove of President Trump’s performance – marking the worst 100-day start for any modern president.

A pair of new polls out Sunday show Americans are largely dissatisfied with Trump’s presidency: 40 percent approve compared to 54 percent disapprove, according to the NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll.

And a similar margin of 42 percent approve /53 percent disapprove, in a new ABC News/Washington Post poll.

That’s much lower for past presidents who enjoyed on average 69 percent approval versus 19 percent disapproval since 1945.

The ABC News/Washington Post poll found that six in 10 Americans doubt Trump’s honesty and trustworthiness, view him as out of touch and don’t think he understands the problems of people like them.

But the majority of Trump’s supporters – 96 percent – say they’d vote for him again, while only 2 percent regret their decision.

Trump, who spent the campaign touting his poll numbers, argued the historically low numbers are actually “very good” considering the political climate.

“New polls out today are very good considering that much of the media is FAKE and almost always negative,” the president tweeted Sunday over two tweets.

“Would still beat Hillary in popular vote. ABC News/Washington Post Poll (wrong big on election) said almost all stand by their vote on me & 53% said strong leader.”

The first 100 days tends to be honeymoon period for a new president, especially when his party has full control of government.

Trump has scored wins among his base on rolling back business and environmental regulations, appointing a conservative Supreme Court justice, cracking down on illegal immigration and pushing forward the Keystone XL pipeline.

But he’s come up short on some of his campaign promises, such as repealing and replacing ObamaCare, $1 trillion in infrastructure investment and tax reform.Trump’s 100 day mark is Saturday.

Racing to the deadline, he’s pushing for legislative victories this week on healthcare reform and insisting a must-pass government spending bill include a down payment on his border wall with Mexico.

The border wall funding has been rejected by Democrats and also lacks support among Republicans. If the spending legislation doesn’t pass by Friday, the government would shut down.

For a candidate who ran on an “America First” economic message, polls suggest that Trump’s bright spots are on foreign policy.

Sixty-two percent of Americans support Trump’s bombing of Syria in response to the government’s chemical attack on its people, the NBC/Wall Street Journal poll found.

A plurality of Americans – 46 percent – believe Trump is handling the threat from North Korea “about right,” as opposed to being too aggressive (37 percent) or too cautious (7 percent), according to the ABC/Washington Post poll.

For his part, Trump is downplaying expectations he set during his campaign for his first 100 days.

He tweeted Friday 100-day standard is “ridiculous.”
