Most Americans believe President Trump and Democrats are “out of touch” with the concerns of most people, a new survey found.

The latest Washington Post-ABC News Ipsos poll found 60 percent of respondents believe Trump is “out of touch” with “the concerns of most people” in the country. Sixty-nine percent say the Democratic Party is “out of touch,” while 64 percent believe the Republican Party is “out of touch.”

The results show that Americans trust Trump more than congressional Democrats, but they don’t view any group favorably.

The Post noted that on Trump’s rating of Trump, it’s largely split by political affiliation. More than 9 in 10 Democrats disapprove of how he’s handled his job back in office, while more than 8 in 10 Republicans approve.

Still, 15 percent of GOP voters gave Trump a negative rating, which is more than his first term at the 100-day mark.

According to the survey, Trump’s overall approval rating has dropped since February. Earlier this year, 45 percent approved of his job as president and in April, just 39 percent approved.

The president has received several negative poll results in recent days as he nears the traditional marker to evaluate his presidency.

A survey from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found about 4 in 10 Americans say Trump has been a “terrible” leader in his second term.

In a poll from The New York Times/Siena College, Trump’s approval rating sat at 42 percent, which is considerably lower than the rating other recent presidents received at 100 days into their administration.

The survey results point to general dissatisfaction over Trump’s policies, with Americans saying he has exceeded his authority and tanked the economy and U.S. global standing.

The Washington Post/Ipsos survey was conducted April 18-22 among 2,454 respondents and has a margin of error of 2 percentage points.
