President Donald Trump’s approval rating vaulted upward in a new Harvard CAPS/Harris poll released Monday, although the administration is battling to stay above water on several top issues.
The poll comes after a record-long government shutdown put renewed focus on high prices and household costs, an issue Democrats have leaned on heavily. Trump has brushed that off as a political ploy and continued to pin responsibility on former President Joe Biden.
“Biden caused the AFFORDABILITY CRISIS, I’M FIXING IT, along with everything else!” Trump wrote on Truth Social over the weekend.
Voters surveyed were evenly split on the state of the economy, with 50 percent saying it is better under Trump than it was under Biden and 50 percent saying it is worse. The same divide showed up when respondents were asked whether Trump’s policies are making the economy stronger or weaker.
excerpt:
Trump’s overall approval rating also saw a modest bump, rising to 47 percent after hitting a low of 44 percent last month, according to the poll.
The Harvard CAPS/Harris survey was conducted Dec. 2-4 among 2,204 registered voters by The Harris Poll and HarrisX. It is a joint project of the Center for American Political Studies at Harvard University and The Harris Poll.
