WSJ: Trump Approval at Historic High

July 29, 2024 By Richard C. Young

According to the lateset poll from The Wall Street Journal, President Donald Trump’s approval is at an historic high. Matthew Rice reports in The New York Sun:

President Trump’s job approval rating is now at historic highs, a new poll from the Wall Street Journal and other polling firms suggests. In the wake of this year’s Republican convention and the historic attempt on Trump’s life, Americans seem to be rallying to the former president and rethinking his first term, even as the 2024 general election has moved to a virtual tie.

The survey, conducted by the Journal, along with the firms GBAO and Fabrizio Lee, finds that Americans may be yearning for Trump to return to the White House, especially as President Biden’s disapproval rating has remained high. In total, 51 percent say they approve of Trump’s work as president from 2017 to 2021, while 48 percent disapprove. Mr. Biden, on the other hand, has just a 43 percent job approval rating and a 56 percent disapproval rating.

One GOP pollster who helped conduct the survey, David Lee, tells the Journal that Trump is in a much better polling position today than he was at this time in 2020, the year he narrowly lost the presidency in the Electoral College vote.

“While Democrats and many in the media will tout these tightened ballot numbers as a change in the race, let’s not forget that at this time in July 2020 The Wall Street Journal national polling had Biden leading Trump by nine points and had Biden leading Trump in August by 11 points,” Mr. Lee says. “Donald Trump is in a far better position in this election when compared to a similar time in the 2020 election.”

Mr. Biden’s decision to step aside this year is already reaping rewards for his party, as Democrats and their base rally to Ms. Harris. The Journal poll conducted immediately after the June presidential debate found that Trump led Mr. Biden by six points nationally — a lead that would have, if materialized, resulted in the largest Electoral College victory for a Republican in decades.
