Trump Job Approval Went Down After His Asian Trip



Trump and his supporters welcomed the trip to Asia, because they thought it would make him look presidential and would improve his job approval numbers. But the trip, regardless of Trump's bragging about it, was far from a success -- and the public knows it.

His job approval numbers actually went down after the Asian trip. In this YouGov Poll, his pre-trip job approval was 40% to 52% (a negative 12 point gap). But after the trip, his numbers are 34% to 55% (a negative 21 point gap). I think most Americans were embarrassed about Trump trusting Putin more than U.S. intelligence agencies.

These charts are from a new Economist / YouGov Poll -- done between November 12th and 14th of a random national sample of 1,500 adults, with a 3 point margin of error.
