WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Americans' approval of the job Donald Trump is doing as president has been highly stable, showing less movement than all previous presidents' ratings during their first two years in office. His presidency also has been notable for the absence of two historically reliable patterns in presidential job approval -- honeymoon periods and rally events. It is possible that Trump -- and to a lesser extent his predecessor Barack Obama -- have ushered in a new era of marked stability in job approval ratings resulting from extreme party polarization.
1. Trump's Stable Job Approval Ratings
To date, Trump has averaged 39% job approval as president, with his survey ratings ranging from a low of 35% to a high of 45%. The 10-percentage point range in Trump's approval is the smallest for any president during his first two years in the Oval Office by a significant margin. Richard Nixon had the second smallest range of job approval at 16 points, while the average for presidents prior to Trump during their first two years is 28 points.

"There is no question former President Trump bears moral responsibility. His supporters stormed the Capitol because of the unhinged falsehoods he shouted into the world’s largest megaphone," McConnell wrote. "His behavior during and after the chaos was also unconscionable, from attacking Vice President Mike Pence during the riot to praising the criminals after it ended."

Sadly, I saw that as well. The irony is if you dig down a little. HONESTY sucks. TRUST sucks. INTELLIGENCE roughly half/half. So why is his approval rating stable--even if WELL under half the country approves? "Do you believe the Russia allegations"? MOST do.
Trump's stable in his #'s at the same UNDERWATER approval rating since early on. (Did he ever actually make 50% or did he just claim he did? ) I'm not sure what your post indicates other than he lies and all the evidence doesn't lodge his fix 40-42%. Here are his #'s all the way back, all manner of polling sources...
(I just noticed the highest FOX ever had him was for one week at 48%, for a few weeks, after the election--FOX. Which is still underwater).

Morons on the left always think the Presidency is a popularity contest and prefer a President who can lie convincingly.
65 Outrageous Lies by President Obama
"When government fears the people, there is liberty. When the people fear the government, there is tyranny."
A lie doesn't become the truth, wrong doesn't become right, and evil doesn't become good just because it is accepted by a majority.
