Global polls
[edit]A Gallup poll on 134 countries comparing the approval ratings of US leadership between the years 2016 and 2017 found that only in 29 of them did Trump lead Obama in job approval and that people living in authoritarian or hybrid regime states generally tended to rate Trump more favorably compared to people living in democratic states.[274] Overall, more international respondents disapproved rather than approved of the Trump administration and approval ratings were reported to be similar to those in the last 2 years of the Bush administration.[275] A Pew Research Center poll of 37 nations conducted in July 2017 found "a median of just 22% has confidence in Trump to do the right thing when it comes to international affairs". This compares to a median of 64% rate of confidence for his predecessor Barack Obama. Trump received a higher rating in only two countries: Russia and Israel.[276] In a 2018 Pew Research poll of 25 nations, the confidence in Trump rose to 27%.[277] In the 2019 poll, the confidence in Trump was at 29%.[278] In the September 2020 poll, the confidence in Trump decreased to 16%.[279]

[edit]This section relies largely or entirely upon a single source. (August 2024) |

Trump had 12% among Democrats, 41% among Independents, and 91% among Republicans. Trump had the lowest approval rating among all presidents surveyed with Democrats, the second lowest among Independents (ahead of only Richard Nixon), and the second highest among Republicans (behind only Ronald Reagan). Trump also had the biggest partisan gap of approval among all presidents listed with a 79% approval gap between Democrats and Republicans.[280]
