The new poll found that 43 percent of voters gave Trump a positive job approval rating, a result consistent with polling as recently as just before the November election. More than half of those surveyed -- 55 percent -- disapproved of Trump’s performance in office, however.
An overwhelming majority of Republicans -- 87 percent -- approved of Trump, a small drop from the 89 percent that said the same before the November election. Five percent of Democrats said in the new poll they approved of Trump as did 44 percent of independents.

Just five percent of Republicans who voted for Trump told pollsters they now regretted casting their ballots for him while two-thirds said their feelings had not changed.
Trump became the first president in U.S. history to be impeached twice when Congress voted to impeach him on last week over his role in the siege at the Capitol. Ten Republican lawmakers joined Democrats in voting in favor of impeaching him.
More than half of those surveyed by NBC News, 58 percent, ranked Trump as “definitely worse than most” president or "not as good as most." Forty percent said Trump was either "one of the very best" or "better than most" U.S. presidents.
The network noted that President-elect Joe Biden
