JFK Most Highly Rated Former President, Trump Trailing at 46%: Gallup Poll

According to a Gallup poll issued on Monday, former President Donald Trump has a 46% popularity rating, while John F. Kennedy has a 90% approval rating, making him the most well-liked former president in recent memory.

According to the survey, Ronald Reagan has a 69% approval rating, which is second only to Kennedy’s.

Seven out of the nine presidents rated well by the majority of Americans. Richard Nixon finished in bottom with a 32% approval rating, while Trump got the second-lowest.

Due to over 20% of Americans being unable to express an opinion on the previous presidents in a Gallup poll conducted five years prior, Lyndon Johnson and Gerald Ford were not included in the study.

Retrospective approval ratings for George W. Bush, John F. Kennedy, and Richard Nixon have all risen by four points since that 2018 poll. Bill Clinton’s approval rating decreased by four points during this time.

With a 4% margin of error, this poll of 1,013 American adults was conducted from June 1 to 22.
