Gas prices climbed to a national average of more than $4 a gallon and a Pew Research poll conducted in mid-March found that 60 percent of Americans disapproved of the president’s handling of Iran, including 30 percent of Republicans. Trump’s approval rating on the economy has also reached a new low of 31 percent, a drop of eight percentage points in only two months, according to a CNN poll fielded in late March.

Results can vary because of the inherent challenges of polling — surveys can only be expected to be accurate within a couple of percentage points — or because polls were conducted using different methods and at different times. One of the reasons examining an average of polls can be so useful is it can balance out these differences and make it easier to analyze change over time. Through current day Four years Joe Biden vs. Trump Trump: first term vs. second Barack Obama vs. Trump George W. Bush vs. Trump Irineo CabrerosStaff editor, statistical modeling President Trump’s approval ratings were remarkably stable in the first year of his second term, even amid a number of polarizing issues. After an initial period of decline during his first 100 days in office, Trump’s first-year approval ratings showed less variability than those of any presidential term since Bill Clinton, save those of his own first term.
