President Donald Trump is more popular now than before he sent the global markets into a frenzy by enacting sweeping new tariffs.
An exclusive DailyMail.com/J.L. Partners survey of over 1,000 registered voters conducted from March 31 to April 3 found that the Republican remains largely popular in the U.S.
The poll found that Trump's approval rating rose to 53 percent, a 4-point increase over last week when it was 49 percent.
Trump's rising approval rating is surprising given the flak the White House has received over the tariff order signed Wednesday.
It is up by 13 points since March 7 among those aged 18 to 29.
Trump also saw a six-point increase

I’ll wager that the most hate comes from the people that had soda removed from their EBT gimmes. Kudos to Bobby K, while we’re at it.
Take a train from Chicago to South Bend and you’ll see the carnage first hand. It’s abysmal the condition of our cities and infrastructure.
Nothing surprising about it at all. Americans are finally waking up to the fact thet we were being played for fools for decades. We no longer trust the media or the leftists/establishment types in DC.
Maybe, just maybe, citizens understand macroeconomics better then the politicals and analysists.
CCP Tariffs - bump for later...
That can be seen even in the coastal cities! And even Los Angeles’ wealthiest enclaves outright burned down because of neglect. 😖
We tried an experiment for 60-80 years, to give the world all the tools to become a collection of free nations like us.
But they are not like us. They took those tools, played us for suckers, and bought off our elites to keep us clueless.
That experiment is over. Now we treat the world as it is: a collection of societies, most of which are either hopelessly naive about evil or evil themslves, with which we can trade when it is in our best interests, and from which we must protect ourselves, not only militarily but economically. Tariffs are a good start. Producing necessities domestically, from bullets to technology to medicines, is the required next step, and the sooner the better, because our enemies, foreign and domestic, are not going to wait for us to get our act together before attempting to destroy us. And we’re going to have to fire all those who have been suckering the country for the last six decades, and start from scratch with new leadership.
The patient can come through this better than ever, but the surgery is going to be painful.
The idiot Republicans bleating on about tariffs keep harping about “the message” Trump isn’t communicating his strategy, he’s acting out of impulse and has no plan, he should wait for congress to cut taxes... Blah, blah, blah. People don’t want finely crafted messages. They want action. Trump said we are being ripped off and this is how I’m gonna stop it.
Smart people don’t need a complicated spin. We want balls and strikes. These dinosaurs in the media and congress don’t get that. We have short attention spans. Give us the A and B and C your way to the next thing.
The 50% of Americans who own zero equities but who are up to their eyeballs in debt overwhelmingly support Trump. Trump will bring those neglected lower middle class and working poor families back into the American dream.
For the globalist paper millionaires who temporarily take a hit, I recommend the same compassion they showed for those neglected and destroyed Rust Belt families.
Well we survived pre 1913 predominantly on tariffs. We were prosperous and didn’t have an income tax. I’d sure love to see us get back to that.
The most abused people in history who don't realize they are abused.
Imagine the standard of living and quality of life we could have if we ended this, coupled with mass repatriations?
And Bush made it permanent, with the help of many in the GOP.
And many at FR at the time supported it.
But they are not like us. They took those tools, played us for suckers, and bought off our elites to keep us clueless.
This.
I agree absolutely...I want to see “Made in America” again.
I want LEVI to be made in America again.
They were deceived. People were still willingly censoring information simply because it was “crazy conspiracy theory”. Never mind that it was accurate. Truth is the first casualty of war, and Obama was literally war against this Constitutional Republic.
Thankfully, the “conspiracy theorists” persevered, and people have seen with their own eyes that government, media, big law, big tech, and the intel community are one great big mafia that have screwed us over on way too many things.
Also, Obama’s second election was stolen.
oh yes, definitely, we need just to decouple ourselves from China. I wouldn’t even make a phone to call them with. I would just rip the cord out of the wall and wash my hands to them. Subhumans.
I never thought the first Reagan years(s) were scary at all compared to Carter days before that scared the hell out of me... I remember well the newspapers the next day, “Reagan Elected - Hostages Go Free” kind of headlines.
I was too young and stupid to realize that the real enemy was the GOPe/uniparty that we see today as it is relatively easy to beat the dems nationwide, however it’s the RINOs that enabled most EVERYTHING that is wrong in America today.
Start with $37,000,000,000,000 in debt it all makes sense.
