President Trump’s job approval ratings are up as the public generally approves of his response to the coronavirus crisis. That positive bump is small, however, compared with the bumps for other Western leaders. …
Trump’s relatively paltry polling gains are surely related to the extreme level of distrust he has engendered over his tenure.

His faltering performance has not given them reason to do so. CONT.
