DONALD TRUMP'S APPROVAL RATING RELATIVELY FLAT AFTER SYRIA AIRSTRIKES

"Gallup's daily tracking poll showed no movement in the days following the airstrikes ordered by Trump Thursday. The president's approval stood at 40 percent Tuesday and held steady at 40 percent through Monday. Gallup noted it found that just 50 percent of the country approved of Trump's decision to bomb the Syrian air base, the second-lowest such figure for the 11 military actions it had polled since 1983."

Considering Trump's limited attention span, he'll think that since this didn't work out for him poll-wise, he needs to try something else.
