In a new Gallup poll, 49% approve of the job Trump is doing as president while 45% disapprove, matching the highest his approval rating has ever been in Gallup surveys. A Monmouth University poll released on Monday showed Trump at 46% approval, again the best he has done in that poll in more than three years.


What accounts for Trump's rise? Simple: His response to the coronavirus crisis.

President Trump is as popular as he's ever been right now

Here's an indisputable fact: President Donald Trump is as popular today as he has been since his first day in office.

He can do whatever he wants, nothing will ever stick to him.

This is the early days of a crisis. Y'all need to calm down.

Bush was at like 87% post 911 for reading a fucking book and hiding. These numbers are actually pretty bad.

This is temporary unity due to a crisis. Don't fixate on it.

When things really get bad in 2-3 weeks and we're losing more people than 911 every single day people's tunes will change.

My guess: more people staying home and answering phones maybe?
And:
The effects of his original inaction to thee outbreak haven't shown themselves yet

Well it was released on Monday. So this was before he threw grandma under the bus for the Lords of Wall Street.

We'll see come November.

I want to believe he'll lose. I want to believe this will be over soon. But regardless of the outcome, he's a horrible human being who needs to answer for his crimes.

I don't know why this is still surprising news. Outside of the Twitter-sphere Trump is incredibly popular.

People smarter than me about these sorts of crisis say that people always rally around a leader at first, and it's not until the months following that the shine stats to wear off. So this is to be expected, no?

Trump's "approval rating" is a direct reflection of his supporters' egos. Admitting that he is a shitty president is admitting that they made a terrible decision voting for him. They're not the type of people to admit fault, so they will double down until the day they die.

Wishful thinking, but I hope you're right.

Don't forget that almost every single poll had Hillary beating Trump in 2016. 40% of voters didn't even show up then. We have no idea what will happen this time around, especially with COVID being a thing.

Exactly. Deep breaths people, Trump isn't competent enough to maintain these numbers. I'll bet you Cuomo has already surpassed him Nationally

Yeah... this is to be expected, and it usually drops.

If we get in a situation where we start seeing a big swing in deaths... I think it's reasonable to expect it to drop a bit.

Yes it's be expected but I wouldn't count on that being reflected in this thread.

I was going to ask who responded to this poll? I have multiple adults in my house that disapprove and many people I talk with who disapprove. I take these polls as click bait trash and not representing the true feelings of Americans.

And let's not confuse approval with "popular". You can approve a person's actions and still find them distasteful.

Maybe I don't know how to interpret multiple polls but this seems. wrong. I mean FiveThirtyEight seems to tell a completely different story with what they're saying.

Doesn't help the Dem nominee has completely faded away during this crisis.

People see Trump in these daily briefings "looking presidential", while Biden stumbles through monotonous speeches in his green screened office.

Looks like they oversampled conservatives and moderates. (Look on far right.)

"Incredibly popular" he's the reason Orange county turned blue for the first time ever. A place that was known as Reagan county and it just didn't turn blue it flipped every seat blue.
