Jun 7, 2017 5:57 PM CUT President Donald Trump’s [approval rating](http://time.com/4747538/donald-trump-approval-rating-gallup/ "undefined") has sunk to a new low at 34%, according to a recent poll. According to a poll by [Quinnipiac University](http://time.com/4775979/ahca-health-care-republican-support-quinnipiac-poll/ "undefined"), 34% of voters approve of Trump, while 57% disapprove, a dip from the university’s previous survey on May 24, which found that the President had a 37% approval rating. The latest poll results are Trump’s lowest scores so far — in April, he hovered around 35% approval, according to Quinnipiac. The poll found that 31% of voters think Trump did something [illegal in his relationship with Russia](http://time.com/4808685/trump-russia-watergate-james-clapper/ "undefined"), while 29% say that the president did something unethical, not illegal. About 32% of voters think Trump did nothing wrong. A majority of voters see Trump’s general relationship with Russia as concerning — 68% said they are “very concerned” or “somewhat concerned,” while 54% said he is too friendly with the country. Quinnipiac University [polled 1,361 voters](https://poll.qu.edu/national/release-detail?ReleaseID=2462 "undefined") from May 31 to June 6\. The poll has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.2 percentage points. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4809479/donald-trump-approval-ratings-low-quinnipiac-poll/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4809479/donald-trump-approval-ratings-low-quinnipiac-poll/"},"headline":"President Trump's Approval Rating Hit Another New Low","datePublished":"2017-06-07T17:57:11.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-23T05:18:45.442Z","description":"And many Americans believe Trump did something illegal with regards to Russia","url":"https://time.com/4809479/donald-trump-approval-ratings-low-quinnipiac-poll/","keywords":["White House","onetime"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt73dcf3555de53756/6988d0a0196cf4b26d040789/donald-trump-approval-rating.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Mahita Gajanan","jobTitle":"Gajanan is an editor at TIME.","url":"https://time.com/author/mahita-gajanan/"}],"articleSection":"Politics","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt73dcf3555de53756/6988d0a0196cf4b26d040789/donald-trump-approval-rating.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"President Trump Departs White House En Route To Cincinnati, Ohio","caption":"President Trump Departs White House En Route To Cincinnati, Ohio","creditText":"Win McNamee—Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/politics/","name":"Politics"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"/tag/white-house/","name":"White House"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4809479/donald-trump-approval-ratings-low-quinnipiac-poll/","name":"President Trump's Approval Rating Hit Another New Low"}}]}] ```
