President Trump has been on fire this week, especially when it comes to his foreign policy.
As a result, Trump’s seen a huge increase in his approval rating with the American public, but one group, in particular, has seen a huge increase: Democrats.
President Donald Trump’s upcoming meeting with North Korea leader Kim Jong Un saw a rise in approval from the American public over the last month, but approval from one particular demographic skyrocketed — as did its approval of the president’s overall handling of the nation.
According to a CNN poll, 77 percent of Americans support President Trump’s decision to meet with Kim, up 10 points from last month. Support among Democrats, however, bolstered that number greatly with a 24-point rise in approval from 38 percent to 62 percent.
What’s more is that President Trump saw a huge leap in approval from that same demographic when it came to his overall handling of relations with North Korea. In fact, CNN’s David Chalian reported Thursday that Democratic approval jumped 20 points from last month.
“How about this stat from our poll?” Chalian said on the air. “Among Democrats, Donald Trump’s approval on how he handles North Korea has gone up 20 points in the last month. From 6 percent approval among Democrats to now 26 percent approval, a quarter of Democrats support and approve what he’s doing on North Korea.”
Watch him break the surprising news:
“A quarter of Democrats don’t ever support or approve anything Donald Trump is doing,” he added. “We cannot stress enough — not only is it historic, as you’re saying — politically, this is hugely advantageous to President Trump right now.”
A similar CBS News poll cited nearly identical numbers, showing a 15-point increase in support from Democrats regarding the president’s North Korea policy from March.
Overall, Americans’ approval of President Trump’s handling of North Korea is now at 53 percent, according to CNN, and 51 percent, according to CBS News.
