Let’s take a look at some critical timeframes and movements in his approval ratings, based on Microsoft News sentiment polling: From March 16-23 President Trump gained approximately 3 percentage points in approval, while his disapproval dropped 3 percentage points as well. This coincided very closely with the time period during which Trump began publicly pushing for increased measures to contain COVID-19, even in spite of serious economic consequences. This uptick in approval is unsurprising considering March 12 polling showed 55 percent support for Trump’s efforts to combat COVID-19. By March 20, support for his COVID-19 relief efforts rose to 60 percent. President Trump's approval ratings began to decline around March 27, negating most of his gains earlier in the month. His approval rating went from 43% on March 27 to 41% on April 1; while his disapproval ratings went from 52% to 55%. This coincided with a steep drop in approval of his handling of the COVID-19 crisis. Compared to Jan. 3, 2020, President Trump's approval rating has declined by 2 percentage points. During the month of March, Microsoft News continued to poll Americans on support for President Trump or former vice-president Joe Biden in the upcoming election. At March 1, Biden led Trump by a 9 percentage points Today, Biden leads Trump by 12 percentage points. 10 percent of respondents said they were supporting a different candidate, or were unsure who they would back. Microsoft News and Microsoft Research have partnered to conduct quick reaction and tracking polls to learn more about the sentiment, knowledge and expectations around the COVID-19 and the 2020 election. The Microsoft News Poll uses online opt-in polls, collected from a random sample of American adults, to produce statistically valid results. In these surveys, we collected responses from 3,000 people per wave from March 1 to April 1 using tools from polling firm CivicScience. We then analyzed the results to model how demographic groups answered each question, based on age, gender, race, education, location, and party identification. Answers were projected onto the estimated distribution of those demographic groups. The method is as accurate as traditional polling methods, and in this survey produced a margin of error of +- 2 percentage points.

The poll conducted on Monday and Tuesday of more than 1,100 American adults found that 46% of registered voters said they would support Biden if he were running against Trump in the Nov. 3 election, while 40% said they would vote for Trump. That advantage of 6 percentage points was up from a 1-point lead for Biden recorded in a similar poll that ran from March 6 to 9. The result suggested that Biden had not been hurt politically from his lack of visibility while the Republican president is at the center of a government response to a pandemic that has infected more than 184,000 people in the United States and killed more than 3,700 people. Biden, who does not currently hold office, has been struggling to stay in the public eye as the coronavirus forced millions of Americans inside their homes. While Trump has held daily televised briefings about the virus, Biden has had to shut down fundraisers and other campaign events, and election officials in many states have postponed their nominating contests. Still, the poll found that the number of people who approve of Trump in general, and also those who like the way he has handled the U.S. coronavirus response, had changed very little over the past few weeks. About 44% said they approved of Trump’s overall performance and 48% said they liked the way he had responded to the coronavirus outbreak. That compared with a 70% approval rating among respondents for their state governors’ handling of the pandemic. Trump initially underplayed the severity of the coronavirus, sparred with governors over their requests for medical supplies and floated the idea of reopening the economy against the advice of public health officials. But he shifted course to back extending the shutdown measures to slow the spread of the virus. The poll showed that the coronavirus had rattled the entire country, with 89% saying they were “very” or “somewhat” concerned by the respiratory disease. Twenty-six percent of adults in the United States said they had lost their jobs or been furloughed as stores closed and employers were forced to cut back on staffing because of guidance from health officials for people to stay at home. That was up 3 percentage points from a similar poll that ran last week. The Reuters/Ipsos poll was conducted online, in English, throughout the United States. It gathered responses from 1,114 adults and had a credibility interval, a measure of precision, of about 3 percentage points.
Not one president has ever been re-elected after sending America into a depression and choking hard at protecting it from a deadly pandemic. Not one
The cult will vote of course but the cult didn't put him across the finish line last time, there is nothing he has accomplished or he is promising that will make the soft support to vote for him.
