Joe Biden is already more popular than Trump ever was, according to new poll.
Biden’s ratings saw a jump of six percentage points, while Trump’s tumbled down by three, between pre and post-election periods
President-elect Joe Biden has already become more popular than Donald Trump has ever been throughout his presidency, with the Democrat achieving a 55 per cent approval rating in the latest CNN Gallup poll.
The figures show a jump of six percentage points for Mr Biden compared to polling before the election.
Amid his continued attempts to discredit and overturn the election, Mr Trump’s approval rating is now down at 42 per cent, the survey found, compared to 45 per cent prior to 3 November.
Mr Trump’s highest approval rating was 50 per cent in a Bloomberg News poll shortly after he won the 2016 election. He also achieved a 49 per cent rating in April during the early stages of the coronavirus pandemic, but never exceeded the halfway mark throughout his presidency.
