Trump holds a 48 percent approval rate on how he is dealing with the U.S. economy among those polled.

When the same question was asked in March, 54 percent of Americans approved of Trump's economic policies. That number represents the first time Trump's approval rating in that area has gone below 50 percent since September 2019.

However, 67 percent of those polled said they expected the economy to improve in about a year, with only 31 percent estimating that conditions will be"poor." Poll numbers released Wednesday found that Americans disapproved of the way President Donald Trump was handling the U.S. economy during the outbreak of coronavirus.1,002 adults participated in the poll, which has a plus-minus 3.7 percent margin of error, conducted in the first week of April.

"We can expect that by June 1, we will be well on our way to recovery," Trump said during a March news briefing."We think by June 1 a lot of great things will be happening."

Just think about this, if trump had taken the warning from the World Health Organization & trump’s own experts & not spent 2 months calling the pandemic a “Democratic Hoax” while denying the danger we would be on the other side of the curve & finished. What malfeasance criminal!

I don't believe you! Y'all have a bad a case Pinocchio Syndrome aka FakeNew & DeepStatePropaganda

Sounds like their plan is working...

I am in NYC and because he did not tell us about coronavirus, some of my fellow citizens have died. This was careless and unprofessional and he has to go.

It's going to get worse before it gets better Unless there is a major bailout of American citizens, which doesn't seem to be in the cards Most Americans are going to come out of this disaster, MUCH WORSE Than they did going in That does not portend a sharp economic rebound

I disapproved of Trump on the economy before it was cool.

A top Biden campaign aide says it was a 'good call' in which the Democrat gave Trump some advice. Advice lmfao. The one in the White house. Needs no advice from the one sitting in his basement.

On Coronavirus, Trump Walks A Tightrope Between Grim Warnings And Offering Hope'Tremendous progress has been made in a very short period,' President Trump said. But with more than 10,000 COVID-19 deaths in the U.S. — his administration is also trying to brace the public for a dire week ahead. I’m old enough to remember “15 cases going quickly to zero” My preference: He knew. In January. And there was a report from 2017 describing this and what would happen. And his administration played a game with Obama about this type of scenario. He did nothing for almost two months. Until he thought it made him look bad.
