President Donald Trump just silenced critics with his highest approval rating yet—55 percent—according to a new Daily Mail/J.L. Partners poll, a six-point jump since July.
Analysts credit the surge to his tough stance on crime and steady economic results. Trump’s August 11 executive order deploying federal troops to Washington, D.C. brought striking outcomes: violent crime dropped 39 percent, robberies 57 percent, and car thefts 35 percent compared to last year. While some opposed the move, most Americans support it, strengthening his law-and-order image.
