Trump Approval Index Month-by-Month Trump’s Full-Month Approval Bounces Back to 2018 Levels in Politics Facebook Twitter Email this Related Articles Daily Presidential Tracking Poll 38% Say U.S. Heading in Right Direction What They Told Us: Reviewing Last Week’s Key Polls Sign up for free daily updates Tuesday, March 05, 2019 When tracking President Trump’s job approval on a daily basis, people sometimes get so caught up in the day-to-day fluctuations that they miss the bigger picture. To look at the longer-term trends, Rasmussen Reports compiles the numbers on a full-month basis, and the results for Trump’s presidency can be seen in the graphics below. The president earned a monthly job approval of 49% in February, rebounding five points from January and recapturing the high ground he held for most of 2018. In January, Trump’s job approval had fallen to its lowest level in a year, but it has turned around since his well-received State of the Union address. Fifty percent (50%) still disapproved of his job performance last month, but that’s down from 55% in January. (Want a free daily email update? If it's in the news, it's in our polls).

The monthly numbers in this article are based on approximately 10,000 interviews each month with likely voters. The margin of sampling error is less than +/- 1 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence.
