A majority of registered voters disapprove of President Donald Trump's handling of several major issues at the start of the midterm election year, while Democrats hold a modest advantage in the fight for control of Congress, according to a new national poll conducted by NBC News.
The survey found voters giving the president negative marks on immigration, tariffs, inflation and the U.S. conflict with Iran. At the same time, Democrats lead Republicans by 6 percentage points on the generic congressional ballot, with 50% of registered voters saying they prefer Democratic control of Congress compared with 44% favoring Republicans.
