A majority of young adults view President Trump as an "illegitimate president," according to a new poll.

The GenForward poll reported by The Associated Press found that 57 percent of young adults see Trump's presidency as illegitimate, including three-quarters of black respondents and large majorities of Latinos and Asians.

The breakdown of those results showed that 53 percent of young white respondents consider Trump a legitimate president, but a majority in that group, 55 percent, view his job performance negatively.
