Where does President Trump’s approval rating stand?

President Trump's approval ratings continue to hover somewhere in the mid-forties, according to a host of recent polls.

Forty-three percent of Americans said they approve of the job the president is doing in a YouGov poll released Wednesday, while 47 percent said they disapprove.

In a Reuters/Ipsos poll released Tuesday, 44 percent of Americans said they approve of the president's job performance, and 51 percent said they disapprove.

And in a Gallup poll also released Tuesday, the president's numbers were even deeper underwater: 42 percent said they approve of the job he's doing, while 54 percent said they disapprove.

The latest CBS News survey, released last week, showed a similar spread: 41 percent said they approve, and 53 percent said they disapprove.

The YouGov survey found the public split on some of Trump's recent policy moves. Forty percent of respondents said they approve of the way the president is handling tensions with North Korea, for example, while 33 percent said they disapprove. 27 percent had no opinion.

Seventy-three percent of respondents told YouGov they'd heard a lot or a little about Mr. Trump's tax plan, but only 33 percent said they support it. Thirty-five percent said they oppose it, and 32 percent had no opinion.
