Americans give the nation's economy glowing reviews in a new CNN Poll conducted by SSRS, and Donald Trump's approval rating may be reaping the benefits.

Overall, 71% say the nation's economy is in good shape, the highest share to say so since February 2001, and the best rating during Trump's presidency by two points. A majority give the President positive reviews for his handling of the nation's economy (51% approve), and his overall approval rating has ticked up to 42% in the new poll. The 51% who say they disapprove of the President's job performance overall represent the lowest share to do so in CNN polling since the start of his presidency.

Yes and shows you don’t have to “like” a person to realize they are a great POTUS. Andrew Jackson was fairly uncouth, but IMHO, one of the greatest POTUS.

I’m pretty much at the mercy of anecdotal observation not living in the USA. But yes, the leftists I encounter continue to spew stats claiming the economy is not any better than other Obama.

Here in Indiana (I will allow that we probably benefit some from having our guy as VP) there are help wanted signs all over the streets and new buildings going up all over.
It looks NOTHING like it did during the reign of Caliph Baraq....

NOTE:

“The CNN Poll was conducted by SSRS March 14 through 17 among a random national sample of 1,003 adults reached on landlines or cellphones by a live interviewer. Results for the full sample have a margin of sampling error of plus or minus 3.8 percentage points, it is larger for subgroups.”

If cnn poll shows 7 out of 10, the reality is probably 9 out of 10

I don’t believe CNN under any circumstances. You shouldn’t either.

They mean something else entirely, and it got misinterpreted somehow.

“All the other Dim candidates would take this economy back to mediocrity”

you’re being WAY too optimistic! Most of the Dem candidates would crash our economy back to the stone age ... literally

The Dems pray for a bad economy.

I am only too Happy for the Dems to run a “George McGovern” candidate against Donald Trump in 2020.

Dems: Go Left... Go Hard Left
