A new CNN poll shows that a majority approves of Donald Trump’s transition (55 percent). He isn’t looking as strong as prior incoming presidents, but he’s in better shape than he was in 2016 and is particularly trusted on the economy:
The economy was a particularly strong point for Trump during the campaign, and it is one of the few areas in the poll where deep confidence in him outpaces past presidents. More Americans say they have “a lot” of confidence in Trump’s ability to handle the economy than those who said so about George W. Bush (29%), Bill Clinton (20%) or Ronald Reagan (26%) during their transitions.
