I've become a political junkie who follows these polls on a daily basis. I suspect that I'm not the only one, which shows a wider political interest I think That Gallup poll is similar to but slightly off the average of polls taken during that time period, as shown here: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/trump-approval-ratings/?ex_cid=rrpromo. The Gallup poll is slightly worse for Trump. Let's hope it's more accurate. Also note that the Gallup poll was taken June 8-30. The five-thirty eight site has a daily average. Interestingly, since July 1, Trump's numbers have moved very slightly in his direction. The move may just be a statistical fluke, although the fact that it has continued for a few days could mean that it's not. ("Might" and "could" are the operative words here.) My own feeling is that the main driver in his slide in the polls has been the protests in the streets. Like during Occupy, these protests have transformed the consciousness. Now, it seems the protests are fading a bit. How far this will go is anybody's guess.
