Recent polling data indicates that President Trump's job approval rating is maintaining a steady level, hovering around the mid-40s. A CNN poll conducted in mid-February places his approval at 47%, with 52% disapproving. Notably, this poll highlights that a significant portion of respondents (28%) consider border security to be the president's most impactful action thus far, followed by his collaborative efforts with Elon Musk and the Department of Government Efficiency to streamline government operations (12%).
Public opinion suggests a desire for further action on economic issues. A majority (62%) of those surveyed believe the president hasn't done enough to address rising prices, a sentiment shared across party lines, including 47% of Republicans. This CNN poll, conducted from February 13-17, involved 1,206 U.S. adults and has a margin of error of 3.1%.
These findings align with several other recent polls. A Quinnipiac University poll from the same period shows a 45% approval rating, while Gallup's poll (conducted February 3-16) puts it at 45% as well. A Reuters/Ipsos poll, conducted February 13-18, recorded a 44% approval rating. These results show a consistent trend in public opinion regarding the president's performance.
Since returning to office, President Trump has maintained a busy schedule, issuing numerous executive orders and taking various actions. These initiatives reflect his campaign pledges and demonstrate his use of executive power to shape policy, implement changes within the federal government, and address previously identified concerns.
