Based on responses to a Post-ABC News poll conducted before the inauguration, Post polling analyst Emily Guskin identified a small group of Trump supporters and skeptics for in-depth interviews in February. All are independents or moderates, rather than extreme partisans whom you might expect to stick to the party line. In follow-up interviews this month, Guskin found that negative feelings about Trump had intensified.

Stuart Dudley, 70, an independent from Washington, N.C., said at the beginning of the year that he disapproved somewhat of Trump. He feels the same way today. "He hasn't gotten anything done he said he was going to do," Dudley said. "He talks about cutting taxes, but it's going to hurt the middle classes — it's going to make money for those like him." Dudley added that he's on Medicare, "so I don't have to worry about what's done with Obamacare, but I feel sorry for the folks who can't afford $1,000 a month for health insurance."

John Abbott, 61, a Republican-leaning former math professor who lives outside Tahlequah, Okla., said in February that he was dissatisfied with the way things were going under the Trump presidency. Now he strongly disapproves of the president. "I feel it's disastrous and he's a warmonger," Abbott said. "I think he will do what is good for his pocketbook and his family's welfare, and I think that is probably his motivation." Abbott said he worries about the administration's rhetoric on North Korea and opposes its positions on climate policy. And he is concerned with the cultural shift he's observed under Trump. "I feel there's too much disrespect for diversity," he said.

Kevin Naegele, 57, a real estate appraiser from Hobbs, N.M., was critical in February of Trump's plans to build a border wall and his use of social media, but appreciated his economic policies. Little has changed. "I think he's generally committed to improving the economy, and there's obviously indications that he is," Naegele said. "But I wish he would do things a little bit more silently." Naegele says the president is combative, which hinders his agenda. "If he was just a little less antagonistic, I think he would have a higher approval rating."

Floyd Grabiel, 71, a self-described Rockefeller Republican who lives in Edina, Minn., said in February that he disapproved strongly of Trump, and he feels just as strongly today. "I think when we first talked, I said I'm worried and let's see what happens. Everything I was worried about seems to be happening — it doesn't seem to be getting any better." Grabiel is concerned about the president's impulsiveness. "It creates uncertainty for the people here, creates uncertainty for our allies, creates uncertainty for our enemies." The administration, he said, "wants to break everything we have, but I don't think they have a plan for what's to follow."

Dawn Robinson, 45, a Democratic-leaning therapist from outside Mobile, Ala., said in February that she "quite strongly" disapproved of Trump. Little has changed now. "I kind of hoped that a lot of the shenanigans that he does would have gone away, like he would have grown into the role or had some sense of restraint, the weight of the office would have changed him, and clearly that hasn't happened. He's still just as pompous and kind of a loose cannon as he had been."

Genia Vining, 54, a Trump voter from Jemison, Ala., said in February that Trump had not yet had an opportunity to get things done. She was also concerned about critical media coverage of the president. Vining is now a bit more critical of the president but puts much of the blame on Congress. "A lot of things he wants to do he can't get passed," she said. "The Democrats and Republicans sitting up there in Congress are like 3-year-old children, sitting and bickering back and forth." Initially, she blamed Democrats mostly, "and now I see Republicans doing the same thing. In my opinion they equally share the blame." She's also concerned about larger divisions in society. "We are not united like we should be."

Russell Pandina, 49, who owns a business that sells and maintains ATMs in Montana, wanted to give the president a chance back in February. He liked Trump's plans for immigration and was confident he would improve the economy. "I figured it'd be a hard start," Pandina said recently. Trump "seems to have a lot of opposition." Pandina blames Democrats and the news media for making things difficult for the president, but "he also doesn't help himself with some of his lack of candor." Pandina likes that Trump remains committed to what he promised. "He's not backpedaling on any of the policies he's talked about creating."

Nancy Sager of Morgan Hill, Calif., an octogenarian and retired teacher who wrote in her husband's name on her ballot in November 2016, wanted to give Trump more time to figure things out back in February. This month, she noted that Trump is attempting to make good on his campaign promises, although he's not able to garner much support in Congress. When asked what his biggest accomplishment as president has been, she said, "Well, we're not at war," and she noted that he "could get more done if he could get more support." Sager is still not keen on the news media. "I don't believe half of what's in the media; I don't know if I'm upset with the media or upset with [Trump]." She, like several other voters The Washington Post spoke with, has concerns with Trump's outspoken personality. "I think that some of his crass statements that he makes just make the pot boil that much more." And that's made worse on social media. "The thing that stymies me is the tweets," she said. "He gets up awful early for those tweets."

David Oskins, 37, the owner of a window installation business in Denton, Tex., also wanted to give Trump a chance in February. Back then, he applauded Trump for his business acumen and had high hopes. Now he's not as happy with Trump. "I'm a little bit disappointed. It's been quite a circus, to be honest." Oskins's biggest concern is Trump's habit of shooting from the hip. "He's saying the wrong things." But he thinks that Trump's tendency to "put his foot in his mouth" has brought various people across the country together, even if that wasn't his intention. For example, Oskins thinks the response to Trump's criticism of NFL players kneeling during the national anthem helped more people get behind the Black Lives Matter movement. "He's accidentally making the country better by doing some of this stuff," Oskins said. "The more he gets people riled up, the more they get off their asses to do things that are productive."
