## Resource

Today's Poll Question at Smerconish.com: Are people's opinions of Donald Trump today driven more by his policies or his personality? Fresh polling from ABC/Washington Post and Pew shows Trump’s approval sinking to new lows, with majorities disapproving not just of his leadership style—but nearly every major policy issue as well. For years, critics drew a distinction between Trump’s conduct and his agenda. Now, those lines appear to be converging. Listen to Michael's take, and then cast your vote!
