President Trump's approval rating rose 7 percentage points after the end of the recent 35-day partial government shutdown, a Gallup poll released early Wednesday showed.

The survey found that the president's approval rating jumped from 37 percent in mid-January during the heart of the shutdown to 44 percent in early February after he agreed to reopen the government.

The increase is largely attributable to more positive remarks among independents, pollsters found. That group's approval of Trump rose 6 percentage points from the January poll to the February poll, Gallup said.

Build the entire Great Wall of MAGA and get all 1,900 miles done by the end of the fiscal year. Let's see how far his poll numbers go up then.

Which is why he’ll sign the latest bill they pass. Those 7 points will vanish overnight if he allows another shutdown to take place.
