A new ABC News/Washington Post poll finds President Trump remains poorly rated overall as 56% of Americans disapprove of his job performance, versus 40% who approve, and “strong” disapprovers outnumber strong approvers by nearly 2-1.

“Still, it’s numerically Trump’s highest approval rating in a year, coming just as consumer confidence reached its best since February 2001 in the weekly Bloomberg Consumer Comfort Index. And while he’s 16 points underwater in approval overall, Trump gets essentially an even split for his handling of the economy –- 46% to 48%.”

“Among the most prominent elements of public attitudes toward Trump is the vast gender gap in his basic ratings. While men divide evenly on his job performance, 49% to 47%, women disapprove by a 2-1 margin, 32% to 64%.”
