The Memo: Trump Cabinet, facing sinking polls, lashes out at media

President Trump’s Cabinet members sharpened their attacks on the media Wednesday, as the administration grappled with falling poll numbers.

A plethora of polls have been released to coincide with Trump hitting the 100-day mark in his second term — and they overwhelmingly show the president losing altitude.

A new poll released Wednesday by Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ), The Hill’s polling partner, found Trump 12 points underwater on job approval. Only 44 percent of Americans approved of his performance so far, while 56 percent disapproved.

Especially striking was his poor performance with independents, who disapproved of his job performance by more than 2-to-1, 68 percent to 32 percent.
