President Trump trails a generic Democratic rival in the early stages of the 2020 race, the new NBC/WSJ poll shows

President Donald Trump begins his 2020 re-election campaign with a fighting chance but fighting from behind, a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll shows.

One positive sign for the president: overall approval of his job performance has ticked up to 46 percent of Americans since the end of the government shutdown; 52 percent disapprove. In January, 43 percent approved and 54 percent disapproved of his performance. And though Trump enjoys overwhelming 86 percent job approval among fellow Republicans, they are far from universally opposed to another GOP candidate in 2020. Among voters who say they plan to vote in Republican primaries, 37 percent would like to see a GOP challenger to Trump while 59 percent would not.

Overwhelming numbers said the same about a white man. Smaller majorities expressed comfort or enthusiasm about the project of an independent, under 40, business executive or evangelical Christian candidate.
