POLL: Travel Ban is One of Trump's Most Popular Executive Orders
President Donald Trump's executive order barring refugees and people from 7 majority-Muslim countries from entering the US is one of his most popular so far, according to a new poll from Morning Consult and Politico conducted from February 2-4.
- the order has a 55% approval rating; 35% "strongly approve;" 38% disapprove.
- 82% of Republicans support the ban; 65% of Democrats oppose it.
The only executive order more popular than the travel ban is the one revoking federal funding for so-called immigration sanctuary cities. That order has a 55% approval rating, with 33% disapproving.
As far as Trump's overall approval rating, it’s slipping:
- 47% approve of the job Trump is doing (up 2%).
- 46% disapprove (up 5%).
Not all recent polls have come to the same conclusion. A CNN/ORC poll from last week showed that 53% of Americans oppose the travel ban. The poll prompted Trump to say in a tweet on Monday that "any negative polls are fake news."
