Presidential Approval

Using Five Thirty-Eight’s combined poll averages to determine each president’s approval rating after 741 days in office. Here’s what we discovered.

APPROVAL RATING
Obama: On Wednesday, Jan. 30, 2011, Barack Obama’s approval rating was 50.2 percent.
Trump: On Wednesday, Jan. 30, 2019, Donald Trump’s approval rating is 39.6 percent.

DISAPPROVAL RATING
Obama: 43.3 percent
Trump: 55.9 percent

NET APPROVAL RATING
Obama: 6.9 percent
Trump: -16.3

Winner: Barack Obama was far more popular. Donald Trump’s net approval rating (the numerical difference between the president’s approval rating and his disapproval rating) is lower than any president in modern history.
