Recent polling data shows that former President Donald Trump’s approval rating is now comparable to Barack Obama’s at the start of his second term, with current figures placing Trump’s approval between 48% and 53%. Notably, this marks an increase from his approval levels at the end of his presidency. In several surveys, support for Trump’s policies—particularly on immigration and trade—has surged, with approval reaching as high as 70% in some demographic groups.
Analysts and pollsters point out that while Trump remains a polarizing figure, many of his core policies enjoy bipartisan appeal. His support is reportedly growing not only among traditional Republican bases but also among young voters, independents, and a portion of Democrats. This trend suggests that Trump is well-positioned to expand his political base as the next election cycle approaches.
