President Donald Trump's approval ratings have continued to dive.

Just 37 percent of Americans approve of his job performance in the latest ABC News/Washington Poll poll. His net approval rating of negative 22 percentage points is the lowest for any president at nine months in office in polling dating to 1946; except for Gerald Ford, no other president had a net negative at this point in his presidency.


Moreover, 65 percent of Americans say Trump has accomplished either “not much” or “little to nothing” as president, up from 56 percent after his first 100 days. For a president who constantly says he is accomplishing things at an unprecedented pace, only 35 percent of respondents agreed that he is keeping his major campaign promises.

But even with historically low approval ratings, 2016 voters say a hypothetical rematch between Trump and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton would still be too close to call, according to the poll.

Both the president and Clinton would receive 40 percent of the vote among those who showed up to the polls last November. Among the overall sample, which skews Democratic, Clinton would win the rematch, 41 percent to 34 percent.

The poll is not all bad news for Trump. The president constantly criticizes congressional Democrats for obstructing his agenda, and according to the poll, Americans agree with him. Sixty-one percent of those polled said leaders of the Democratic Party are mainly criticizing vs. 28 percent who said the party is presenting alternatives. Interestingly, in November 2009, questions about the Republican Party generated nearly identical sentiments in the poll when President Barack Obama was in office.

Responding to the week's bombshell Russia probe news, 51 percent of respondents said the president is cooperating with special counsel Robert Mueller's investigation into Russian interference in the 2016 election and possible collusion with Trump's campaign, compared with 37 percent who said Trump is not cooperating and 12 percent who had no opinion. Just under 70 percent of respondents approved of the charges against Paul Manafort, Trump's former campaign chairman, who stands accused of money laundering and failure to register as a foreign lobbyist, the latter of which is required by law.

The poll was conducted from Oct. 29 to Nov. 1 and reached a random sample of 1,005 U.S. adults via landline and cellphone. The overall margin of error is plus or minus 3.5 percentage points.
