Survey: Most white millennials now disapprove of Trump, too

A new survey finds rising disapproval of President Donald Trump by white millennials, but it's still below that of their black, Latino and Asian-American peers. A GenForward poll released Thursday shows that whites have joined the majorities of young adults in all racial and ethnic groups in disapproving of Trump's performance. 

That disapproval among whites has grown from 47 percent in the group's May survey to 55 percent in its most recent one, which was conducted from June 23 through July 10. A split emerges when respondents were asked if Trump would do what's right for the country. The latest survey found that 58 percent of whites say he would most or some of the time, while majorities of black and Latino respondents say he never would. GenForward is a survey of adults ages 18 to 34 conducted by the University of Chicago.
