Washington, July 17 (RHC)-- U.S. President Donald Trump’s approval rating has now plummeted to a mere 36 percent as he nears the six-month mark of his presidency. It’s the lowest six-month approval rating of a U.S. president in 70 years.
Meanwhile, Trump faced protests while attending the United States Women’s Open over the weekend, which was held at the Trump National Golf Club in Bedminster, New Jersey. More than 100,000 people had signed on to a petition calling on the LPGA to move the venue.
On Saturday, activists gathered outside the venue to protest Trump and his history of making sexist comments and bragging about sexual assault.
In other news, the White House has declared this week "Made in America" week—despite the fact that Trump’s own companies outsource the vast majority of manufacturing to factories overseas. Trump’s daughter Ivanka Trump exclusively outsources the manufacturing of her clothing and accessory lines to overseas factories, mostly in Bangladesh, Indonesia and China.
