Study released a day before State of the Union address shows president has lost support among Republicans

Most US adults think Donald Trump is moving the country in the wrong direction during his second presidency, according to a new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll released the day before his State of the Union speech.

Fifty-five percent of adults feel that Trump is changing the country for the worse, a 13-point increase from around the same time of his first presidency, the survey conducted from 27 to 30 January found.

The number of people who held that view also increased four points from April.

Unsurprisingly, support for the president splits down party lines.

    Pretty much everybody I know on the right (and conservative) fall into 2 camps:

    “There’s only 2 pronouns, male and female” or “I don’t keep up with the news these days”.

    When that’s what progress is going up against, and it’s nearly 50% (or more) of the population, I just don’t know how we can continue as a country.
