WINNING: Trump more popular among base than Obama, Reagan, JFK

Don’t look now, Nancy Pelosi, but Americans love Donald Trump.

Pollster John Zogby told reporters this week that the president is more popular among his base than Barack Obama, Ronald Reagan and John F. Kennedy were at this time of their presidency.

Speaking to foreign journalists at The Washington Foreign Press Center on Wednesday, Zogby said Trump is wildly popular among Republicans.

“His approval ratings within his own party are high,” the pollster said, according to a transcript provided by the State Department.

“If you look today, 87 percent of Republicans give him a positive approval rating. What’s that mean? At this point in his presidency, Barack Obama had a 79 percent rating among Democrats,” Zogby said.“Ronald Reagan wasn’t this high. Jack Kennedy wasn’t this high. The GOP is the party of Trump.”
