Donald Trump recently bragged that his poll numbers were improving. This is just not true. While the numbers in the polls go up or down by a point or two, the truth is that Trump has not significantly improved his job approval numbers at all. A year ago, he was at 39% approval and 51% disapproval. The latest poll shows him currently at 39% approval and 50% disapproval.
His numbers have been upside-down since he was sworn into office, and they are not improving. The third chart shows what (in my opinion) is the reason he is failing to improve his numbers. A significant majority (53%) of Americans consider him to be dishonest and untrustworthy (while only 30% say he is honest and trustworthy). His numbers will remain poor as long as the public sees him that way.
These charts reflect the results of the latest Economist / YouGov Poll -- done between May 13th and 15th of a random national sample of 1,500 adults, with a 3 point margin of error.
