Gallup's daily presidential tracking poll found Trump's approval at 43% on Thursday, a 1-point increase from the prior day. During the past three weeks, Trump's approval has risen from a presidential low of 35% on his 69th day in office — a catastrophic number that early in an administration — to 43% on his 91st day in office, an 8-point increase.
The jump is the largest increase Trump has achieved in the Gallup rating since the start of his presidency, and his approval rating of 43% is the highest it's been since March 11, when it hit 45%. His all-time high was 46%, achieved during his first week in office.
