If the Democrats thought that President Trump was in trouble after he agreed to end the #PelosiShutdown, those thoughts were swept away by his boffo State of the Union address Tuesday night.

According to the Dan Bongino Show website:

According to the Rasmussen daily presidential tracking poll, 50 percent of voters approve of President Trump’s job performance, while 49 percent disapprove. 

Rasmussen writes, “The latest figures include 38% who Strongly Approve of the job Trump is doing and 41% who Strongly Disapprove. This gives him a Presidential Approval Index rating of -3.” 

The State of the Union Address had 46.8 million viewers, which increased from President Trump’s 2018 SOTU ratings. The ratings also beat President Obama’s second SOTU address by 9 percent. 

Instant polls conducted by CBS and CNN directly after the State of the Union address found that the President’s speech was a major hit with viewers. 

CBS News found that a whopping 76 percent of respondents “approved” of what they heard in the president’s speech, and 72 percent approved of the president’s immigration comments.
