Trump's Delivering on His Promises
Yeah, I mean, look, but it's not just CBS. You know, I like to take an average of the polls. I like to take an average of the polls. And holy smokes, I mean, look at what the difference is between now versus eight years ago during the first Trump term, right? This is Trump's net approval rating on February 10th.
Part Of The Problem
Trump's Delivering on His Promises
You go back to 2017, Trump was already underwater at minus five points on the net approval rating. That's approval minus disapproval. What a difference eight years makes. He's on the positive side of the ledger at plus four points. And again, it's not just the CBS News poll. We're talking about the Gallup poll. We're talking about the Ipsos poll. We are talking about the Pew poll.
Part Of The Problem
Trump's Delivering on His Promises
All of these respective pollsters have Trump in a better position now than they did eight years ago. The bottom line is Americans are far more likely to say they like what they're seeing now versus what they felt during Trump's first term.

So I want you to take a look at this plus size, this plus sign. Right. Compare that to the negative sign. Being on the plus size. They really do talk to you like you're idiots. Positive net approval territory. A positive net approval rating for Donald Trump. Again. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Entire first term. Just 11 days. Just 11.
Part Of The Problem
Trump's Delivering on His Promises
It really is. Compare that to the second term just so far, just so far. Like, we get it. From second term so far, he has been on the positive side of the ledger 21 days, all three weeks. That's already 10 more days than he was in his entire career. Yeah, no weekend. So, again, this is just another sign that Americans are far more likely to like what they're seeing.
Part Of The Problem
Trump's Delivering on His Promises
You know, I think one of the things that's so important for politicians is for folks to believe what they're saying and that they're keeping their campaign promises. So I think this gives you a pretty gosh darn good idea of what may be going on. Trump's doing what he promised to do. You go back to April of 2017. It was just 46 percent.
