Trump’s Approval Rating Plummets Amidst Controversial Policies
A Rasmussen Reports poll reveals President Trump’s approval rating dropped from 56 percent to 52 percent between January 23 and 28, mirroring a similar post-inauguration dip in his first term. This decline, accompanied by a rise in disapproval, follows a series of controversial executive orders including those impacting immigration and the January 6th riot pardons. The poll, surveying 300 likely voters daily, uses a five-day rolling average with a 2.5 percent margin of error. Analysts have offered varied interpretations, with some highlighting the rapid policy changes and others focusing on the historical context of presidential approval ratings.
