The survey shows Trump’s overall approval rating at an anemic 36 percent, with 58 percent of those surveyed disapproving of his presidency.
A majority of voters have negative assessments of Trump’s personal qualities. They do not believe Trump is honest, has good leadership skills, cares about average Americans, is level-headed, or that he shares their values.

Even more striking are the top terms respondents gave as the first word that came to mind when they thought about Trump. The top 15 words offered in the free-form exercise were:
Idiot
Incompetent
Liar
Leader
Unqualified
President
Strong
Businessman
Ignorant
Egotistical
Asshole
Stupid
Arrogant
Trying
Bully
