Donald Trump's approval rating has dropped in two polls as he faces criticism for his administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. The president lost six approval points in a Morning Consult poll and one point in a Napolitan News Service poll between surveys taken last month and this month.

Having once publicly described Epstein as a "terrific guy" and having been pictured with him on multiple occasions, the President swiftly changed tack once Epstein's crimes became publicly known and has denied all wrongdoing or nefarious involvement.
