The poll shows that Trump was only viewed favorably by 41% of registered voters in December 2022. That was compared to 55% of registered voters who viewed him negatively. However, the same poll shows that Trump is now breaking even with 49% of registered voters viewing him at least somewhat favorably and 49% viewing him at least somewhat unfavorably. This marks a 14-point swing for the 45^th president in five months.

This stands in stark contrast to a CNN poll that showed President Joe Biden has hit an all-time low in net favorability.
