President Trump’s job approval rating has rebounded after a second-term low, according to new polling averages from Decision Desk HQ (DDHQ).
The president’s approval rating in the DDHQ average of polls stands at 44.8 percent, marking a 3.5 point increase from last month.
As of Tuesday, his disapproval rating sits at 51.7 percent, per DDHQ. In mid-November, Trump’s disapproval peaked at 55.5 percent.
Trump has been dealing with a number of issues in the last two months, most notably concerns about “affordability.”
The president visited Pennsylvania to talk up his efforts to boost the economy, a week after he argued that affordability was a “scam” pushed by Democrats.
Former President Biden saw his approval ratings plummet in large part because he was seen as ineffective on inflation even as he and his advisers argued their policies were making headway.
Republicans in Congress have voiced concerns that Trump is falling into the same trap.
