WASHINGTON, Dec 16 (Reuters) - President Donald Trump's approval rating slipped in recent days to nearly its lowest level of his current term as voters from his Republican Party soured on his handling of the economy, according to a new Reuters/Ipsos poll.

The three-day survey, which concluded on Sunday, showed 39% of U.S. adults approve of Trump's job performance, down from 41% earlier in December and within a point of the 38% reading from mid-November, Trump's lowest rating this year.
