President Donald Trump’s summer swoon appears to be over.

After months of declining poll numbers, the president’s approval ratings have stabilized — and even ticked up slightly — over the past month.

Following a low of 39 percent in the POLITICO/Morning Consult poll last month after his controversial reaction to the violent protests in Charlottesville, Virginia, Trump is back at 43 percent in this week’s survey. Other surveys show similar results: Trump bottomed out at 35 percent in Gallup’s weekly tracking poll in late August, but ticked up to 38 percent last week. Trump is at 40 percent in the RealClearPolitics average, up about 2.5 points from his low-water mark last month.

Still not good or great by any means, but it is positive momentum.

If the gasbag republicans in the senate can get through a decent tax bill, it could continue momentum.

Still don't care about polls but in terms of the narrative, if they are going up at all given the constant negative reporting the MSM does, it's a good sign for him.

Of course. Why do you think they're trying so hard to resurrect this ridiculous 'Russians' story?

TRUMPS ratings were never down. The polls are fake.

Things to bring up his approval rating:

1- work a deal on DACA
2- declare Santa to be black
3- rename Thanksgiving as Family Holiday
4- Declare that Valentines days is a made up holiday to subsidize greeting card companies
5- tout the 2018 toyota Supra as a car to consider
6- Declare Russian vodka to be inferior to Ukranian vodka.

What else?

He got two huge hurricanes striking the US back to back. Most disasters make people sympathetic, and Trump was milking them for every flooded house he could.

If they are only 40-43 then he is still flooring.

at some point you are going to have to accept that these ratings are meaningless. Trump would win if the election were to be held today

Funny how many trumpkins seem to confuse Mueller's team being leak proof with the Russia investigation going away.

Just because you don't hear about it does not mean that nothing is happening.

If Trumps poll numbers are rising, expect a hatchet job from media in coming days or weeks...

It's called grasping for a narrative.

I can't decide if you or BamaATL will be the biggest melter when Trump wins again in 2020.

What a melt. Especially because I specifically remember when you thought Obama milking parents of dead kids was the best thing ever
