President Donald Trump’s job approval rating stands at 40%, according to an NBC/Wall Street Journal poll released Friday. The poll also reveals bipartisan dissatisfaction with the House health care bill despite some support for repealing Obamacare.
Republican support, however, does not translate to health care: Only 34% of Republican respondents favor the House health care bill, as do just 16% of all adults.
The country remains split on whether Republicans should continue to try to repeal Obamacare, with 38% of respondents saying they should and 39% saying Republicans should let the law stand.
Respondents also said they had more faith in Democrats to do a good job on health care, but more faith in Republicans to take care of the economy.
Those surveyed also said they would prefer Congress be under Democratic rather than Republican control after the midterm election in 2018 by an 8-point margin (50 to 42%) .

The 8-point margin, however, might not be enough to score big midterm wins.
The poll was conducted by telephone from June 17 to 20 among a random sample of 900 adults nationwide and has a +/- 3.27 percentage point margin of error. The pollsters dialed numbers from samples of both land-line and cell phones.
