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 Trumpâs average approval and disapproval ratings in national polls. It includes the most recent results on this question which meet CNNâs 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.
