President Donald Trump is getting footing with the American public, a new Politico/Morning Consult survey has found. "Across the board, Trump is finding pretty widespread support for nearly all of his policy prescriptions," Politico writes.
Trump has slightly more approval than disapproval among Americans, with 48 percent of voters saying he is doing a good job as president, while 46 percent say he is not. And when it comes to Trump's policies, Americans feel more warmly: 54 percent of voters somewhat or strongly approve of Trump's executive order banning citizens of seven predominately Muslim countries from entering the U.S., while 38 percent disapprove.
