Poll shows significant rebound in Trump’s approval rating

A recent poll from Monmouth University shows President Trump is rebounding from the record low approval numbers he received just a month ago.

Forty-two percent of the roughly 800 participants said they are in favor of the job Trump is doing, while 50 percent indicated they are not.

Though Trump is still shy of showing net positive numbers, the latest poll, which was conducted from January 28 to 30, is a vast improvement over the 32 percent approval versus 56 percent disapproval reported in December.

In related matters, 55 percent of respondents gave the president credit for being at least somewhat successful in moving his agenda through Congress.

It also appears people are warming up to the recently passed tax plan, though most don’t believe they will personally benefit from it.

Approval and disapproval for the legislation are now equal, standing at 44 percent each, a change from last month when the split was 26 percent for and 47 precent against.

That said, only 24 percent indicated they expect their taxes to decrease.
