Trump Approval Ratings Soar As He Takes Aim at Corona Crisis

Despite constant attacks from the left-wing media, President Trump’s approval ratings are on the rise, largely based on his handling of the coronavirus crisis.

The president’s job approval rating jumped 4 percentage points in under one week, according to a new Harris Poll.

Mr. Trump’s approval rating jumped to 53% in Harris’ national surveys conducted March 17 and 18, Tuesday and Wednesday, which was up from 49% in polling taken on March 14 and 15.

Support for the president is tied to the public’s view of his handling of the coronavirus outbreak and his approach to foreign affairs. Approval of Mr. Trump’s management of the coronavirus crisis rose 5 percentage points to 56% in polling conducted this week. His handling of foreign affairs rose 3 percentage points to 52% in the same timeframe.

The Harris Poll also found a majority of respondents do not fear dying from the coronavirus. Seventy-two percent of respondents said they do not fear they could die as a result of contracting the virus.

An ABC poll last Friday, also showed that the president’s approval ratings are on the rise.

That survey showed that 55 percent of Americans approve of Mr. Trump’s strategy compared to 43 percent who disapprove.

The ratings are a sharp reversal from the week prior, where 54 percent had disapproved, but 43 percent had liked the president’s handling of the crisis.

The uptick in the president’s ratings comes after the administration took a variety of new response measures over the past week.

Since last Friday, Trump has declared a national emergency, expanded the European travel ban, urged against group gatherings of more than 10 people, signaled his support for dispensing checks to affected Americans, and invoked the Defense Production Act — although he has stopped short of actually triggering the statute.

The president has also often led the daily press briefings of the White House coronavirus task force, announcing new federal actions, taking questions from reporters and generally appearing more solemn regarding the nature of the threat facing the U.S.

  1. Me thinks that Trump’s ratings soar, NOT sore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    • MOst of America agrees. When it comes to a crisis Trump is in the lead. I shudder at the thought of what a Killery or Biden would eo. Pelosi has already shown what she would do. Fill up the port barrels aher once beautiful firynd ignore the black plague in

  2. It is ALWAYS the liberal/commiecrats…They Hate America and ALL americans..You better wake up soon and realize “they” hate you and your family..If you support “them” you do so at the detriment of your family and this nation.. If this devolves into a civil war “they” WILL lose !!! I am ready to give my life to preserve our constitution and America ,Are you !??

  3. So, you wacko’s think by censoring facts it will not happen..Typical of morons.. It’s coming !!!!

  4. I really thank God for President that he thinks about the people! He can’t be bought, he’s a strong man, he’s in my prayers daily! He’ll win 2020 some of the Christians aren’t voicing their opinions but they WILL vote for Trump!!

  5. I recall it was the 2009 Obama admin. that distributed $500 to each taxpayer endearing him to the public as well as the free Obama phones, food stamps, etc.

  6. Would be nice if the twits writing your headlines knew how to spell. Are the ratings in pain or are they rising higher. The difference between sore and soar. More products of government “education”.

  7. You lost me in your headline. Learn how to use the correct word before you write an article. In the headline, “sore”? Is someone upset? Or sos you mean “soar” as rising higher?

  8. You really need to find an English speaking writer for these articles. Trump is “SOARING” not Soring”. I believe this would be a middle-school grammer error.

  9. President Trump has worked diligently to fulfill his promises and has been very successful in spite of the left’s constant resistance. If the Democrats would stop their hate campaign and trying to stop his progress our nation would prosper and the divisions caused by the Dems.would heal and we could again be one nation under God , indivisible and growing stronger.

  10. Think you can find a writer who can spell? Approval ratings can SOAR, which means that they can rise speedily to a higher level. Approval ratings cannot SORE. SORE is what you get when you sit on a tack.

  11. he is here to protect america from evil democrats. all of there ill got then money stolen for tax payers
    need to be confiscated, punish for grand larceny.life in prison

  12. President Trump,

    Let’s take our country and market back. Fight Fake News and Dems/Socialists daily.
    Make our country what it was a few short weeks ago.
    Total control of our own pharmaceuticals
    Hold China accountable
    Prove their false claims
    Continue to drain the swamp. It’s huge!
    Stockpile and annual preparedness testing for next pandemic. At state level
    Get rid of all hold overs in your administration

    God Bless America

  13. I love how pro active you have been. You are doing a fantastic job. Thank you so much. Ignore the haters. Ignore the democrats in Congress. I have too! I get too worked up with them. I feel very safe and believe you are doing what is best for all Americans. I pray for you all the time.

  14. The Lord is on President Trump’s side and is sustaining him through this crisis. Now America needs to get on the Lord’s side so He can heal this land. See 2 Chronicles 7:14

  15. Happy to hear that Pres Trumps ratings have gone up . The man works non stop for the American People and really gets no cooperation from the opposing group when now is the time to work together. Truly a disgrace. Trump 2020

  16. This situation it is getting bad i know,president trump will do Eventhing he can from the spread of this coronavirus. This emergency closing everything yes it is right but still it doesn’t need go to far or. Making a big deal about it even still everything should reopened back up the jobs banks schools everything bills need to be payed some company’s may not care they want their money. What would happen if bills can’t get payed be thrown out the streets? How people eat? Are people going to their jobs? I get scared every day I’m not working I fear life every day

    I ask these questions because it’s important to know when bills get closer and closer everyday

  17. One more thing I want ask do u nice folks across the country do u fear of losing ur jobs or when u can’t pay ur bills?

    These are qustions what going to happen

  18. One more thing I want ask do u nice folks across the country do u fear of losing ur jobs or when u can’t pay ur bills?

  19. I am very surprised and happy with the way he is handling this crisis. I like his push to give all Americans Amounts of money to help in this Situation. I would question now how somebody like myself who started his business just 9 months ago will be able to get any assistance because my business relies heavily on dealing directly with customers and it has been impact good greatly in the past 5 weeks since people in South Florida. And my business was doing well with growth in such a short period of time. This is greatly impacting small businesses as I can see some even than the myself.

  20. President Trump is the best President we have had and I will vote for him again. will never vote for another Democrat as long as I live they are corrupt and some of the most hateful people around. They way they are all consumed with impeachment of our President to the point that they will not do for the legal citizens. They only want to help themselves and the illegals when they are trying to impeach Trump. Most worthless politicians we have ever had.

  21. What year did the author of this article graduate from high school? or did he? It must have been recently to allow him to get away with spelling “soar” as “sore”. Don’t you people believe in proof-reading?

  22. Ok great! but why are we calling in the National Gaurds for? SOMETHING SOUNDS SUSPICIOUS! SO WE ARE LOCKED DOWN HERE IN A FEW HOURS! SOUNDS TO ME LIKE MARTIAL LAW! They just are not saying it in so many words!

    • Willis, The National Guard is repairing roads while traffic is diminished. There is no Martial Law. President Trump is working hard for us everyday! Pray for him and stop being afraid.

  23. Please explain your headline, Bill. What was sore about this ratings? The Dems may have been sore about the fact that Trump’s ratings soared. If you buy a spell-checker it might help you understand what I am asking! LOL

  24. Question I have is when will the media get reporters with at least a third grade education? It’s pathetic when they say that Trump’s ratings sore. Sad.

  25. You should check your dictionary for the proper spelling of the word “soar” in the title and in your writing of this article. I can excuse your lack of proper spelling in the body of your article, but the title should have proper spelling don’t you think?

  26. Trump is doing and the democrats in the senate are playing politics as usual.. trying to screw Americans..

  27. A news service should have the knowledge in the use of the English language difference between the words “sore” and “soar”.

  28. However, I do believe Trump is doing a great job and deserves the recognition through his approval ratings.

  29. Trump deserves the recognition in his approval ratings based on the great job he is doing. I’m sore that some believe the ratings are sore.

  30. Despite the Demoncrackhead Vermin Cong Party working against him the President forges through!! I’m proud to be an American, and will vote for him again!!! TRUMP 2020!!!

  31. pRESIDENT tRUMP TO CONTINUE TO BE pRESIDENT FOR ANOTHER FOUR YEARS, BY A HUGE LANDSLIDE NO MATTER WHAT THE left TRYS TO DO! vOTE ALL red AND GET RID OF THE SWAMP!!!!!

  32. What a pity you can’t use spellcheck. Your headline presumably should read “Ratings Soar”, however I would agree that the President is a sore on the backside of this nation.

  33. I think the word you are looking for in your headline is “SOAR” jus saying, who does your editing?

  34. Sign the bill for stimulus united we stand !! A house divided will fall. Wake up Nancy are soon you will be jobless

  35. POTUS is waging war against this wuhan virus. Briefing Americans almost daily including weekends. Capturing business support. Kicking congress into action for future needs of Americans. Pushing science to solve issue. Investigating alternative meds. No stone unturned. He and team of experts are positive and hopeful.

    Congressional reps take a week off. Some in the know cashed in their stocks. The peelousy schitts on the latest Bill with pork that has zero effect on virus war.
    Anything to obstruct POTUS & the American People.
    Americans that vote for demonicRats hate America too. Politics before the people. “Never let a crisis go to waste”.

  36. Can u imagine if sleepy Joe was there protecting us? Democrats are commies in disguise and follow Soros money. When is the gov’t going to take his money out of circulation? Any party or organization taking that money must be shut down and exposed- wonder how many Dems are on his take!

  37. Thank God for President Trump, I will Vote for Him again. We don’t need anyone in that don;t care anything about the People of the United States Of America. Thank You President Trump and Vice President Mike Pense. God is surely with You In All of these Trouble times.

  38. At this point I really don’t care about the spelling booboo! I am thrilled to FINALLY read about PRESIDENT TRUMP’S ratings deservedly GOING UP!!!!!! Especially on the National Day of Prayer!!!! Now I just can’t seem to get the prayer out of my mind————“ Pres. Trump make General Flynn HEAD of the FBI !!!!” Not only will he be 1. Trustworthy to the people & to the President & his administration & get the FBI running respectfully again & and the FBI will no longer be a threat to the American People!!!! and 2. It will make the “DEEP swampy STATE” go Apoplectic!!!!! Plus——watch more Deep State Heads Roll——their attempted Coup was Treasonous (as the President correctly called them out today!!! This evil would have NEVER been tolerated on ANY LEVEL by the early Presidents!!! Washington, Adams, Jefferson, etc & etc!!!! And neither will it be tolerated by OUR Most Courageous President Trump & AG Barr and the NEW DOJ!!!! We serve a GOD of restoration & We will move ahead restoring USA to where we were before this China Nightmare of trying to destroy the US Dollar——scaring the Beejeezes out of many citizens——— & and causing the tragic deaths of our Elderly Moms, Dads, Grandmas & Grandpas, Brothers & Sisters!!!! Especially in New York State due to Gov. “The Don” Como’s down right inexcusable flat out stupid decision making!!!)!! Pray & Vote! Pray & Vote!! We’ll MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!!! “TRUTH is LIKE OIL———IT ALWAYS SURFACES in WATER!!!! Pray & Vote! Pray & Vote!!! Take back the HOUSE —-Keep the SENATE——Re-Elect President Donald John Trump!!!!
