President Donald Trump’s approval rating reached a new low Sunday amid condemnation for his initial reaction to the protests in Charlottesville, Virginia, that resulted in one person dead.

The Republican president’s job approval rating hit 34 percent Sunday compared with a 61 percent disapproval rating that put Trump in an unenviable historical class, according to Gallup’s most recent numbers

(further down in article)..

The historical significance, as well as many comparisons between the Trump-Russia and Watergate scandals, has put Trump only 10 points ahead of former President Richard Nixon’s personal all-time low approval rating. Nixon plummeted to 24 percent approval before he resigned from office in August 1974..

1. Trump will never resign. He will be dragged out kicking and screaming.

"I didn't lose the election! Fake news! Fake news! I'm demanding a recount! Voter-fraud! Where's this Goback-guy?"

3. Yes. His overblown ego will not let him resign.

After all, he's done nothing wrong.............just ask him.

He's an idiot, a five year old with a single digit IQ who's gone whacko.
And whackos voted for him.

4. Whomever takes office after him best change all the locks and codes

I can see him trying to sneak back in

6. You are probably correct..But, Nixon said the exact same thing.

Two days before he resigned, he said publicly, and I have the newspaper with the headline, "I will not resign"..
Two days later, headline says, "Nixon Resigns".. Who knows what Trump will do? He lies about everything.

2. Simple: Trump has more Nazis on his side

5. I think he would love to take his ball (and a bunch of WH stuff) and go home.

He is tired of the criticism and the tough schedule (tough for him as he is running out of places he can go where he won't be laughed at). He won't because he cannot run interference on the investigation that will ultimately bring him down.

It is like criticizing Putin and Russia, he cannot do it because they will release the pee tapes and worse!
