JUST IN: By a 2-to-1 margin, most Americans think Joe Biden has more respect for those who serve in uniform than Pres. Trump does.
Trump's approval for his handling of COVID-19 lands at 35% in the new survey, which was conducted by Ipsos in partnership with ABC News using Ipsos' Knowledge Panel, compared to 65% who disapprove. This marks the fourth straight poll with Trump's COVID response approval hovering in the low-to-mid 30s since early July.
Roughly two-thirds of the country think the president acted too slowly in responding to the outbreak and also distrust what he has said about the coronavirus -- a precarious reality for Trump who is facing reelection in less than two months in a campaign largely seen as a referendum on his response to the unprecedented crisis.EMS medics transport a man with possible COVID-19 symptoms to the hospital on Aug. 07, 2020 in Austin, Texas.
"I wanted to always play it down," Trump said on March 19, just days after he declared the coronavirus crisis a national emergency."I still like playing it down, because I don't want to create a panic."
