Following the January 6 Capitol riot, Trump left office with a low approval rating. A February poll by YouGov and The Economist found that Trump was named the worst president in U.S. history.
However, its base has remained strong in the two months since it left the White House. Trump is the top candidate for a 2024 GOP presidential race, with a recent poll by The Hill finding that he gets the support of 51% of GOP voters ahead of the next primaries.
The same poll revealed that 88% of voters registered Republicans or affiliated as Republicans to approve of Trump’s presidency.
