— have offered muted praise for many of the administration’s decisions while avoiding harsh criticisms. Similarly, congressional leaders from both parties emphasized bipartisan cooperation between Congress and the White House in negotiating the $2-trillion rescue package.
Americans are thus hearing bipartisan support for Trump’s crisis management. Democrats, in particular, see their leaders mostly supporting the president. The truth is, the public looks to their partisan elected leaders for guidance far more than media pundits or subject matter experts.Unsurprisingly, given the wave of support from Democratic leaders, Trump’s COVID-19 rally has come mostly from Democrats and independents .
Still, considering the extraordinary magnitude of the current crisis, the very modest size of Trump’s approval rally is striking. The COVID-19 rally pales in comparison not only to Bush’s post-9/11 rally, but also to those following the start of the 1991 Persian Gulf War and 2003 Iraq war, the 2011 killing of Osama bin Laden , and even the U.S. invasion of Panama in 1989 .

Confusing, eh? It's because he's doing the right things.
opinion The President is genuine. You are fake.
opinion Fake News ?
opinion Media is a disgrace. Dnc is corrupt
opinion Maybe cause hes a good president. Trump 2020
opinion Great article. I really hope 45 reads this with his morning coffee. Collectively, we can all take a shot when he says the words 'approval rally.' 🙄 Let's also collectively stop watching his news conferences so we stop giving him those ratings. He says NOTHING in them anyway.

opinion LOL 'Bipartisan efforts' ...
opinion
opinion Perhaps because he is exposing the media for the dnc lapdogs they are
opinion It’s normal in period of crisis - we witness the same kind of thing in France where Macron also has good and even very good approval ratings. People 1) understand that it’s an exceptional situation, and 2) want to trust their government in those times.
opinion Because the alternative is worse. Joe Biden came out against banning travel from ANY country as late as March 12. Trump was at least early to banning travel from China, and his press conferences have been strong.
opinion It’s because you are America, the land of racism and prejudice, Trump is appealing the majority white population, it’s very easy to understand, he simply blame the unlike him and then the majority applaud
opinion US is the worst performing country in the world. Americans used to stand for efficiency and science. Now they have become anti-science racists. Maybe USA deserves what it gets?
opinion Perhaps it’s because his supporters are the only ones that give a damn about Presidential approval ratings? Hence the only ones partaking.
opinion
Because he's doing a bang-up job, unlike the lamestream media.
