PRESIDENT HOLDS – AT 10:45 A.M. ET:  With all the attacks on him and his Supreme Court nominee, the president is doing pretty well in the polls.  He's holding where he was last week in Rasmussen: 

The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Monday shows that 49% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trump’s job performance. Fifty percent (50%) disapprove. 

The latest figures include 36% who Strongly Approve of the way Trump is performing and 42% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -6.

COMMENT: We stress that other polls have the president lower, but Rasmussen tracks only likely voters and does so every day.  I've found them reliable.
