CNN Poll of Polls: Trump approval

Presidential job approval ratings are one of the few metrics consistently and similarly measured in nearly all major public polls. An average of recent polls can often paint a more reliable picture of how the public views the president than a single poll can. The CNN Poll of Polls tracks President Donald Trump’s average approval and disapproval ratings in national polls. It includes the most recent results on this question which meet CNN’s standards for reporting and which measure the views of all US adults. The CNN Poll of Polls does not have a margin of sampling error.

Editor’s Note: The disapproval is hovering at or near 60% disapproval of Trump. It will continue to fall, right up to Midterms, and beyond. My prediction…  Thanks to CNN for their fine summary poll. Across the multiple polls, the data in patterns become visible.–DrWeb
