Where does Trump stand with the public? Americans are divided about President Donald Trump's job performance, according to the latest PBS News/NPR/Marist poll. Yet support for him is higher than at any point during his first term.
His job approval remains underwater, with 49 percent disapproving. Another 45 percent approve of his record so far, including 36 percent of Americans who strongly approve – another high-water mark for Trump.
