A single survey often reports all adults and registered voters separately, so the same pollster and dates can appear twice; where approve and disapprove add up to less than 100%, the rest were unsure or did not answer.

He had earlier taken 60 days to assess the economic impact of Russia-related sanctions and tariffs on other countries.
