Donald Trump’s approval was negative in 47 states and the District of Columbia in a new YouGov and Economist state-by-state projection. In those 47 of 50 states and in D.C., more people disapproved than approved of Trump’s job performance—a broad measure of a president whose national approval numbers have also fallen into negative territory.

The three exceptions were Wyoming, Idaho and West Virginia. The projection offers a sharper view than a national topline alone: Trump retains positive net approval in a small group of strongly Republican states, while the estimated disapproval gap extends across most of the country.

According to the projection reported by USA TODAY, Trump’s net approval was positive in Wyoming, Idaho and West Virginia. Wyoming was the strongest of the three at +14, followed by Idaho at +9 and West Virginia at +6.

He isn't getting reelected so...
how many states did obama have a negative approval rating at this same point as trump in his second term?
  • Obama's Underwater States: Obama's job approval dropped below 50% in 39 states, fueled by second-term headwinds such as the contentious budget sequester, NSA leak scandals, and the early rollout friction of healthcare reform. He secured solid majority approval in only 11 states and the District of Columbia. [1]
  • Trump's Second-Term Footprint: In comparison, current state-level trackers like Civiqs and Morning Consult show President Donald Trump holding a positive net approval rating in roughly 22 to 24 states, while leaning negative in 26 to 31 states. This leaves Trump's state-level disapproval less widespread geographically than Obama's was at the same historical junction.
how many states did Biden have a negative approval rating at this same point as trump now has second term?
  • Biden's Underwater States: Biden's job performance was net negative in 44 out of 50 states. This included his home state of Delaware, historically reliable Democratic strongholds like Washington and Illinois, and all key electoral battleground states (such as Arizona, Georgia, and Pennsylvania). He maintained a positive net approval rating in only six states. [1, 2]
  • Trump's Second-Term Footprint: By comparison, current state-level tracking from Morning Consult and Newsweek shows President Donald Trump holding a positive net approval rating in 24 states and trailing into a negative net approval rating in 26 states.
