President Donald Trump‘s approval rating has flipped to a net positive for the first time in three weeks, according to a new poll released on Wednesday.
Why It Matters
Trump has touted positive approval ratings and polling during news conferences and campaign rallies throughout his political career.
When the president returned to the White House in January, Trump was coasting with positive numbers, but in the last couple of weeks, his approval ratings have dipped across the polls. Trump’s approval rating among nearly every major pollster is now negative.
The president is gaining ground with his overall approval in Economist/YouGov polling. Last week, the president’s approval rating was 45 percent versus a disapproval rating of 50 percent. The week before that, from March 9 through March 11, the president had an even approval and disapproval rating of 47 percent.
