President Donald Trump's job approval rating is currently at 50%, while Americans have mixed feelings on two of key policies, according to a new poll released by CBS News and YouGov on Sunday (March 30).

The survey showed that Trump was at an even 50% approval and disapproval rating for the poll conducted between March 27 and March 28, dropping one point from the previous month and several from the beginning of his term. Additionally, 52% of Americans disapprove of Trump's handling of the economy and 56% disapprove of his handling of inflation, while 58% approve of his program to deport immigrants illegally in the U.S.

A majority 64% of respondents said "not enough" when asked if Trump was focusing on lowering prices, while 55% said "too much" when asked about focusing on putting tariffs in place. A majority 42% also said they expected to be "better off" financially when Trump was sworn into office in January compared to their views now, while 42% said they were "worse off" now.

Last week, Trump's net-favorable rating was reported to still be in the negatives at a -4 percentage, but at a record high, according to aggregate polling compiled by CNN analyst Harry Enten. The president previously had a -10 point rating during his first term in March 2017 and a -7 point rating after being elected for a second term in November.

“All we talk about is how unpopular Donald Trump is,” Enten said during a CNN broadcast earlier this week. “But in reality, he’s basically more popular than he was at any point in term number one and more popular than he was when he won the election back in November of 2024.”

“So when you compare Trump against himself, he’s actually closer to the apex than he is to the bottom of the trough,” he added. “And of course, that’s so important because Donald Trump, historically speaking, has had his numbers underestimated.

“I think it’s very important to compare [Trump] to himself, to understand that he’s actually more popular now than he was when he won, or certainly where he was at this point back in his first term.”

Trump's net approval rating was previously reported to be negative 2 percentage points in February, once again becoming the only president to have a net approval rating in the negatives since 1937, according to Enten. The president was reported to dipped below zero after having a plus 7 net approval rating in January.
