RealClearPolitics averaged a series of polls from such prominent entities as Rasmussen Reports, Gallup, Quinnipiac, and NPR/Marist, among others.

In a report accessed Monday, RCP showed that President Donald Trump had a job approval rating of 44.4 percent and a disapproval rating of 52.2 percent.

This is very similar to last week, when President Trump had an approval rating of 44.2 percent, and slightly higher than two weeks ago, when he had an approval rating of 43.2 percent.

For their generic congressional vote, also accessed on Monday, RCP had the Democrats ahead with 49.5 percent, with the Republicans having 41.9 percent.

This represents an increase for both parties from last week, when Democrats had 48.8 percent while the Republicans had 41.1 percent.
