On 1 Feb Trump’s overall job approval was at 49.9%, disapproval 44.7%. Today, 47.5% approve/50.1% disapprove.
A little early to be singing hosannas ... especially since no one is coming, much less a non-MAGA savior from Trump. His approval is still within the MOE. While it is true his disapproval is more significant, it is still just above 50%.
What amazes me about this is everyone saw this coming (if they had their eyes open) and yet act as if they were surprised. Since everyone knew about the impending chaos and economic maelstrom, why is his approval so high? Well the answer is Trump is the savior of America, regardless if you are a MAGA or serious Trump voter. The expectation is high, which suggests to me that these same folks are poised to willingly bear the brunt of higher inflation based on promises of a better future. Bottom line ... don't expect his approval to go down much.
