Trump Approval Ratings: Latest Opinion Polls As Impeachment Trial Comes To An End

As the Senate begins to wrap up the impeachment trial, the latest opinion polls of President Trump show that most Americans disapprove of his job performance.

An NBC/Wall Street Journal survey shows that 51% disapprove of Trump and 46% approve. The right-leaning Rasmussen Reports poll says that 50% approve of Trump and 49% disapprove.

A CBS News poll shows that 51% of Americans disapprove of the president, and 43% approve. A Reuters/Ipsos survey shows worrying numbers for the President, with 56% of Americans disapproving of Trump and 41% approving, a significant 15-point difference.

Poll aggregator RealClearPolitics shows that Trump has an average of a 44.7% approval rating and a 51.9% disapproval rating.

Trump’s disapproval ratings on average have been consistently above 50% since March 2017.

Americans also continue to have an unfavorable opinion of Congress. An Economist/YouGov survey shows 61% disapprove of Congress and just 18% approve. A Fox News poll shows 58% of Americans disapprove of Congress, with 26% approving.

The Senate on Wednesday is expected to acquit Trump of his articles of impeachment after a vote for trial witnesses failed. Sixty-seven votes are required to remove a president from office and Republicans have the majority.

Since the start of the impeachment process, opinion polls about whether Trump should be removed from office have remained fairly stable.
