Donald Trump's Approval Rating Breaks Records
Newsweek ^ | Jan 22, 2025 | Martha McHardy

Posted on 01/22/2025 2:37:19 PM PST by nickcarraway

he beginning of President Donald Trump's second term has seen his net approval rating reach a historic high, according to Rasmussen Reports, with the latest Presidential Tracking Poll showing a net approval of +14. This marks a significant milestone for Trump, breaking previous records set during his first term.

The poll, conducted by the conservative-leaning polling company over a two-day average from approximately 829 U.S. likely voters, showed that 54 percent of respondents approve of Trump's job performance, while 40 percent disapprove.

A three-day rolling average of this data is set to be released on January 23, with a five-day rolling average following on January 27, which Rasmussen frequently employs to enhance accuracy through larger sample sizes. The margin of sampling error for the full sample of 1,500 Likely Voters is +/- 2.5 percentage points with a 95 percent level of confidence.

Newsweek has contacted Rasmussen and the White House for comment via email.

Maybe somebody could drop a copy of this article in the collection plate at the National Cathedral in Washington.

The poll, conducted by the conservative-leaning polling company

more fake news BS. Rasmussen was right on the money in regards to polling results for the election. But of course the fake news cant mention that and instead says the above BS

I wonder why the article does not compare these numbers with Biden’s approval ratings.

The media press gave him a tem second unifying display, until the then declared open season on him again. I don’t get it. Biden hides and won’t openly talk to the press for four years, and they cover for him. Trump is open, honest, and takes every last question, and they hate him for it????

Because “81000000 %” just looks silly.

The 40% who disapprove can voluntarily pay higher taxes and prices at the pump and insist on paying higher home loan interest rates. That’ll teach you Trumpers!

...why is there a tax-payer funded National Cathedral in Washington? I think the American people should toss that collection plate off the Arlington Memorial Bridge.

It’s a cooked poll and this was the best they could do...

Trump’s real approval number must be so high it’s off the charts.

If you think that's bad, see my links on this thread...

Trump on National Prayer Service Bishop

Check out the taxpayer dollars going to Big Religion. By the same Deep State whose minions keep calling for the separation of church and state.

At least its tax-free status should be cancelled as long as it is a soapbox for political propaganda.
