Shifting the public's view on President Donald Trump is not impossible. But it doesn't look likely
November 13th, the line to get into the Ways and Means Committee room already stretched all the way down the long hallway, though the hearing was not scheduled to begin until ten. Cameras bristled at the building’s entrance. Congressional interns, journalists and political junkies jostled for position as if they were on a crowded train carriage, and police officers trying to keep a path open grew increasingly frustrated.
But Mr Trump’s approval rating is not entirely insulated from external events . It stood at around 45% when he was inaugurated. His first few months generated ample headlines—a chaotic cabinet-filling process, Michael Flynn’s tenure as national security adviser and the failure of the first travel ban—but his rating did not decline until House Republicans introduced the American Health Care Act, their first effort to repeal Barack Obama’s Affordable Care Act .
By early 2018, Congress had grown less ambitious, and Mr Trump’s approval rating recovered. It next dipped during the 2018-19 government shutdown, for which he claimed responsibility, claiming that he was “proud to shut down the government for border security.” When the government reopened, his rating recovered.
