Importance Score: 65 / 100 🔴
CNN has reported new polling data revealing a decline in Donald Trump’s approval rating as he approaches his 100th day in office. The latest survey indicates a significant shift in public sentiment toward the U.S. President, just months after he regained the presidency. Correspondent Jessica Dean presented the findings, noting a considerable drop in favorability among Americans.
Trump’s Approval Rating Plummets
The fresh poll inquired about Americans’ perceptions of “How Trump is handling his job as president.” The results show only 41% of respondents approving of Trump’s performance, while a substantial 59% expressed disapproval.
Lowest Approval Rating in Modern Polling History
Dean emphasized the historical context of these numbers, stating that this is the “lowest for any president at this point in the history of modern polling going all the way back to Eisenhower.”

Analyst: “These Numbers Are Horrible”
Chief analyst Harry Enten joined the discussion, offering a blunt assessment of the data.
- “These numbers are horrible,” Enten stated, “there’s no way to sugarcoat this.”
- He compared Trump’s current standing to his position 100 days into his initial presidency, noting a decline from 44% approval in 2017 to the current 41%.
Comparison to Past Presidents
Enten provided context by comparing Trump’s approval rating to those of past presidents at the 100-day mark:
- Joe Biden: 53%
- Barack Obama: 63% (2009)
- George W. Bush: 61% (2001)
A Historic Low for Presidential Approval
In a stark assessment, Enten declared that Trump’s current approval rating is the lowest on record.
He elaborated: “I looked back at all the polling I possibly could, long before I was born. And Trump’s 41 percent at 100 days is the worst on record. He has broken his own record for being the worst.”
“The American people do not like what they’re seeing at this point from Donald John Trump.”
Trump Plans MAGA Rally in Michigan
Despite the unfavorable poll numbers, Trump intends to commemorate his initial 14 and a half weeks back in office. He has scheduled his first “MAGA” rally since the election in Michigan, a crucial swing state that contributed to his victory, to celebrate his 100 days.
Press Secretary Statement
“President Trump is excited to return to the great state of Michigan next Tuesday, where he will rally in Macomb County to celebrate the FIRST 100 DAYS!” announced his press secretary, Karoline Leavitt, on social media.
