According to a new NBC News poll, more Americans think the nation is headed in the right direction than it has since 2004, and three months into his second term, Trump\u2019s approval rating hit its highest level of his presidency.<\/p>\n
The unfortunate news is that Trump has yet to win over the majority of Americans.<\/p>\n
In fact, according to NBC\u2019s polling, 54% of respondents are unhappy with his economic management, which is the first time he has lost a majority on the matter.<\/p>\n
According to the New York Post, which cited the NBC News survey, \u201cthe survey found that voters generally feel Trump is bringing \u2018the right kind of change\u2019 on the key issues \u2014 even tariffs.\u201d According to NBC, 41% of Americans favor his changes to trade policy, compared to 38% who oppose them.<\/p>\n
According to The Post, NBC poll participants appear to be allowing Trump some wiggle room on inflation: 40% said his policies are helping, 30% said they are hurting, and 28% said they aren\u2019t having any effect.<\/p>\n
With a strong 90% approval rating among Republicans and only 4% among Democrats, the poll also shows how divisive Trump continues to be.

Trump has an all-time high in the poll, with 47% of voters supporting him overall and 51% opposing him. Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020 and again in October 2018, he had achieved 47% approval.<\/p>\n
The Post pointed out that NBC\u2019s results are consistent with the majority of other polls, with the most recent aggregate from RealClearPolitics indicating that Trump has an average approval rating of 48.2%.<\/p>\n
According to RCP, Trump\u2019s approval rating is significantly higher than it was at this point in his first term (44%), but it is still lower than that of former President Joe Biden (53%).<\/p>\n
The fact that 44% of registered voters think the nation is headed in the right direction\u2014the highest percentage in 20 years\u2014and 54% think it is headed in the wrong direction is encouraging for Trump.<\/p>\n
This is the most optimistic assessment of the nation\u2019s future in the poll since President George W. Bush was in office 20 years ago, despite the fact that it is still mainly negative.<\/p>\n
Compared to the previous administration, this is a significant change.<\/p>\n
Just 28% of voters surveyed by NBC News in September of last year said they thought the nation was headed in the right direction, while 65% said they thought it was going in the wrong direction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
