While Trump’s job performance remains underwater this week in the poll, his approval numbers rose 2 percentage points from last week while his disapproval ticked 1 percentage point lower, the poll found. The survey showed 42% of U.S. adult citizens polled approve of the way Trump his handling his job compared to 53% disapprove.

Before Tuesday's new poll, the president saw sliding numbers with the key group as he hit his lowest rating in over two months.
