Nearly 60% of voters described President Donald Trump as reckless in a new poll.

The majority of American voters think President Donald Trump is reckless, sexist, and thin-skinned, according to a new Morning Consult/Politico poll.

Asked for their opinion on whether a list of both positive and negative descriptors applied to the president, 59% of those polled said the president is reckless, 55% said he is sexist, and 53% said he is thin-skinned, while just 34% described him as trustworthy, 35% called him honest, and 35% said he was steady.

The survey was conducted during the two days following the president's June 29th tweets crudely attacking MSNBC hosts Mika Brzezinski and Joe Scarborough.

Sixty-five percent of voters - and 46% of Republicans - said the president's comments about Brzezinski, whom he called "crazy" and claimed was "bleeding badly from a face-lift" when he saw her earlier this year, were unacceptable.

A plurality of voters - 38% - said Trump's attacks on Brzezinski gave them a "much less favorable" view of the president.

The survey of 1,989 registered voters was conducted between June 29 and 30 and had a margin of error of plus or minus 2 percentage points. Thirty-nine percent of those surveyed voted for Trump in November, while 37% voted for Hillary Clinton.
