President Donald Trump is reported to have a 49.4% approval rating after the first week of his second term in office, according to FiveThirtyEight.

The website tabulated 11 polls released since Trump took office on January 20, which showed that an estimated 43% of Americans disapprove of his job as of Thursday (January 28). Trump's initial net approval rating (approval rating minus disapproval rating) of +7 is the second-lowest of any newly elected president since World War II, behind only his first term in 2017 in which he had a 44.6% approval rating and a 41.4% disapproval rating (+3.2% net approval rating).

Former President George W. Bush previously faced a record low for initial net approval rating at +28 when he took office in 2001 before former President Joe Biden, who defeated Trump in the 2020 election, began his term at +22 in 2021.

Trump's administration began with several polarizing executive orders, which included ordering the deportation of migrants who have entered the U.S. illegally and have been accused of crimes, which has been widely viewed as favorable by the American public, according to ABC News. Additionally, an Associated Press/NORC poll conducted earlier this month showed that most U.S. adults were in favor of deporting immigrants "who have been convicted of a violent crime."

Several other actions, however, could result in backlash, including the pardoning of his supporters who unlawfully entered and rioted at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, which was only supported by 21% of the public, according to the Associated Press/NORC poll, as well as withdrawing from the international climate agreement, which was also viewed as unpopular by the same survey.

Trump's decision to end birthright citizenship -- a legal right to citizenship for all children born within the U.S. regardless of their parents' immigration status -- was opposed by 55% of respondents, according to a New York Times/Ipsos Survey conducted from January 2-10. Americans are also reported to be mostly not confident in Trump's promise to lower the price of goods and services, including groceries and health care, according to the survey.
