Dec. 11-25 net approval rating: Trump’s 36% approval rating is unchanged from AP-NORC’s November poll in its latest survey of 1,146 adults conducted Dec. 4-8 (margin of error 4) and released Thursday, but his rating on the economy dipped to 31%, a low point for both terms.
Dec. 19-16: Trump’s approval rating ticked up to 41% from 38% in late November in the latest Reuters/Ipsos poll released Tuesday, while his disapproval rating decreased from 60% to 57% (the poll of 4,434 U.S. adults was conducted Dec. 3-8 and has a two-point margin of error).
The uptick coincides with an increase in his performance on the cost of living—from 26% last month to 31% this month among all respondents, driven by a 10-point gain among Republican voters.
Trump has sought to improve voters’ views on his handling of the economy, kicking off an “affordability tour” Tuesday in Pennsylvania.
