WASHINGTON President Donald Trumps job approval rating in three key states that helped propel him to the White House Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin stands below 40 percent, according to a trio of NBC News/Marist polls.
In addition, Democrats enjoy double-digit leads in Michigan and Pennsylvania on the question of which party voters prefer to control Congress after the 2018 midterms, and they hold an 8-point advantage in Wisconsin.
