More Republicans view Kim Jong-Un positively than those who view House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi that way, according to a poll conducted by The Daily Beast.
Nineteen percent of those surveyed have a positive view of the North Korean dictator. Comparatively, only 17 percent of self-identified Republicans view Pelosi that way. Further, 72 percent of those Republicans who were polled view the California representative negatively.
However, Nancy Pelosi is not the most disliked member of Congress; that’s Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell by a slim margin.

When asked if they agree that, “The mainstream media is biased against President Donald Trump,” 87 percent of Republicans surveyed agreed. Sixty-seven percent of those agreed strongly with the statement. Only one in five self identified Democrats agreed with that statement.
The poll was conducted of approximately 1,000 people aged 18-45 and was done at the end of last week.
President Trump and Kim met in a historic summit last week in Singapore. Following it, Pelosi released a statement condemning the agreement the two world leaders agreed upon at the time. “In his haste to reach an agreement, President Trump elevated North Korea to the level of the United States while preserving the regime’s status quo,” her statement said.
