according to new a.p./nrc center poll 36% of americans approve, 62% say they disapprove. he's the only president whose rating has never been above 50% in the poll. a new monmouth puts his approval at 40% and 50% disapprove. in the poll he doesn't break 50% among men, 49% approve. while 62% of women disapprove of trump's performance. underwater 31 points and his disapproval among nonwhites is 72%. one clear sign of trouble is trump's standing among noncollege educated white women. according to the latest nbc news/"wall street journal" poll, 49% say they would support the democratic candidate. just 43% would support trump. it is a dramatic drop among a demographic that he carried by 27 points according to 2016 exit polls. a recent cnn poll shows 40% of americans approve of his job performance. 54% disapprove. "the washington post" notes no president with an approval below 50% has ever been re-elected. >> so the numbers, susan del percio, are stark to say the least. 36% overall approval rating in the latest poll from the associated press. and then you look at the monmouth pol

. >> now a new a.p. poll shows just 36% of americans approve of how president trump is handling his job. 62% disapprove. joining us now nbc road warrior ali vitalii who has been covering the candidates live at the dnc summer meeting. lots to cover here. governor inslee was considered to be on the more moderate end of the scale. he had the most definite plans or most advanced plans on climate change. how does the departure of inslee, polling very low, change the face of the race if at all? >> reporter: well, the obvious is that there is one less person who wants to become the democratic nominee for president. in a field of 20 plus that matters especially when looking at people polling at 1% or 2%. someone dropping out means that 1% or 2% could go elsewhere. but i also think it speaks to the moderate lane of this race, which we saw get really big, which left on the debate stage the ability for people like bernie sanders and elizabeth warren to defend the progressive flank pretty much on their own while the

but somehow the news broke anyway. the a.p.story today saying the sackler family wants this settlement to not only get them off the hook, they ever want the settlement to settle all the cases against them in federal court everywhere and in every state court in the country, too. now, whatever you think of this as a potential fate for the company that brought us objectiony couldn't oxycontin, whatever you might think about their offer and divvied up among every jurisdiction with a claim in it, this is something that's supposed to be mulled over just by the plaintiffs. and tomorrow, as best as we can tell, those plaintiffs are going to have to tell the judge in that case what they think about this offer. there are going to be many, many, many judgment days when it comes to true reckoning for these companies that killed hundreds of thousands of our fellow americans and made billions of dollars while they were doing it. but one of those judgment days, potentially a very important one, looks like it's going to be tomorrow behind clos

consider account new numbers in an a.p. report that notes 62% of americans disapprove how trump handles his job and that trump is, let this sink in, "the only president whose rating has never been above 50% in the history of polling." that's not good. the a.p. also notes a drop down to seven in ten republicans approving of his hanning of gun control policy, his lowest ratings on that issue from republicans. so even on guns, trump is losing three out of ten of them. his newly vocal critics and opponents seem to have something in common. they appear to be planning whatever you think of their authenticity, they appear to be planning for a world where donald trump loses. they could be wrong. it's hard to beat an incumbent president. that's just a historical trend. but it's interesting because these nerves and the worries are not just coming from frump insiders. it's spilling out to some of his enablers and some of the most powerful people in washington like mitch mcconnell. the context is you have 22 republican seats up in 2020

involvement of this chinese-run company in the trump development was first reported by "the new york times" and the a.p. last year. literally today at this press conference involving the president's son, the indonesian partner in the deal suddenly announced at the press conference with no warning that no, no, no, they have decided not to use the chinese company to build the thing after all. but it's actually not clear from the way he said it if that just means they're not having the chinese construction company build it or maybe it just means a chinese bank isn't financing the whole development anymore. nobody has actually been able to confirm whether chinese state-run firms or banks are out of the trump deal. the indonesian guy just blurted out that's happening, that's a big change and we don't know. so yeah, maybe, maybe not, unclear. nobody in the trump white house seems much to mind either way. but that's a new place that we're in as a country. not just for the president and for his family and for his ongoing business interests but for us as a country, right? we are here in a new place at a fraught

. >> "the new york times" reports he sought advice from you last night climbing into the car with you riding around the lake in iowa and here we are 24 hours later a.p out tomorrow. in the "new york times" report it showed that john hickenlooper, though relatively unknown nationally to the point where he's actually polling at zero in polls, in colorado just massively popular. a 13-point lead in current polls over the sitting incumbent republican senator in a state that donald trump lost. i mean, talk about what would happen. if john hickenlooper runs for senate in colorado. >> he would win. >> he's got over a 50-point lead in the democratic primary. >> he's right where the state is on a whole range of issues. and he left office as popular as he came into office. as governor. so i'm not going to front-run whatever it is he's trying to do or not trying to do. but we obviously have to win the senate seat in colorado. that's critical. and by the way, that's critical for us to think about across the country. this isn't just about the presidential election. this is about how we get a democratic majority back in the senate. in my mind that's as important a

look at the president this morning, what peter baker has written about in "the new york times," julie pace's piece for the a.ple make up his team of advisers. i wonder what your thinking is as you watch him and see him meeting with the french president as we look ahead to the meeting with the u.k. prime minister. how influenceable he is. in the past there was blind optimism that if you could get the president one-on-one, you could make a deal with him. how much has that dissipated, that he is a president who is unleashed and uncontrolled by those around him? >> reporter: it's interesting. i was just talking to a white house advisor, i guess we'll call this person who said in the early days there was a sense you could team up with someone else. you could do an end run around, you could be the last person to get to the president's ear and you could change his opinion or flip his mind on something. these days in the white house there's not a sense you can really do that anymore. the sense is this president is going to do what he wants to do. you can make your argument to him. and people do that, people express t

was the first to report tonight and nbc news has since confirmed that it looks like the democratic field will go down by one. sources are telling us and the a.p. tonight that john hickenlooper the former colorado governor will be out of the race by this time on thursday. again, a certain amount of tightening in the field is necessary after a good long while because of the cost of these campaigns and because the attention can only be focused in the end on a handful of people. it's early yet. we'll give you that to have a field of 24, 25 candidates in this race. jill, another issue front and center is guns, and i want to read you nbc's reporting and p some color from the "new york times" on this front. trump has been that n. talks -- this is nbc news.
