At the six-month mark of his presidency, America is becoming less impressed with Donald Trump's performance as president. And this is how he compares to his predecessors:
No other president has received an approval rating as low as Trump in their first six months in office.
Trump received a lower approval rating than Barack Obama, Bill Clinton, and Gerald Ford _ever had_ in office.
Many former presidents received their highest approval ratings early on, some within the first 6 months.
It's not all bad: Trump has struggled to pass the key legislative items on his agenda, but he still has three and a half more years to push policy through and improve his ratings.
The best and worst ratings of the past nine presidents, and when.
