The Rasmussen Reports daily Presidential Tracking Poll for Thursday shows that 55% of Likely U.S. Voters approve of President Trumps job performance. Forty-five percent (45%) disapprove.
The latest figures include 38% who Strongly Approve of the way Trump is performing and 36% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of +2. (see trends).

Questions are growing about the source of top-secret information leaked to the media to hurt the Trump administration. A plurality (47%) of voters believe Americas intelligence agencies have their own political agenda.
Nearly half (48%) also believe most reporters are biased against the president. Only 12% think they are biased for Trump, while 31% feel most reporters try to be fair and balanced. Needless to say, Republicans and Democrats strongly disagree in their assessments of the media.
While the presidents refugee freeze is tied up in the courts, the State Department has sped up acceptance of newcomers from the Middle Eastern terrorist havens targeted by the freeze. Most voters think thats making America less safe.

Wait you're going to cite the OUTLIER and you expect people to take you seriously?
The Economist/YouGov poll has him at 45%.
Pew Research has him at 41%.
FOX News has him at 48%.
Gallup has him at 41%.
But sure, you find the ONE organization that has him with a net favorable rating, and post about that. I guess whayever gets you through your day.
