A new CNN poll finds 71% of Americans say the nations economy is in good shape, the highest share to say so since February 2001, and the best rating during Trumps presidency by two points.
A majority give the President positive reviews for his handling of the nations economy (51% approve), and his overall approval rating has ticked up to 42% in the new poll. The 51% who say they disapprove of the Presidents job performance overall represent the lowest share to do so in CNN polling since the start of his presidency.
Trumps 42% approval rating at this point in his presidency puts him near the bottom of the list of modern elected presidents, between President Bill Clinton in 1995 (44%) and President Ronald Reagan in 1983 (41%). Both were re-elected to second terms.
