Some six in 10 Americans approve of the job Donald Trump is doing to combat the coronavirus crisis, pushing the
president’s approval rating – 49% - to the highest of his presidency, according to a poll released Tuesday by Gallup.
Trump’s gains come as his standing has improved among Democrats and independents amid the viral outbreak, which has killed more than 660 people even as the nation has adopted strict rules limiting public gatherings.
Trump’s job approval numbers are up 6 points among Democrats and 8 points among independents, according to the survey.
And voters are largely giving Trump positive marks for his handling of the pandemic,
with
94% of Republicans, 60% of independents, and 27% of Democrats approving of his efforts.
That’s higher than his general approval rating among each group.
The survey, which carried a
margin of error of plus or minus 4%, was conducted from March 13 through March 22,
