Approval

The latest five surveys as each pollster published them, compiled by VoteHub (CC BY 4.0) and retrieved 2026-11-13. We only display them — no calculation, weighting or editing. 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.

Vance defends Trump envoy’s ‘humanitarian’ praise for Putin
U.S. Vice President JD Vance defended special envoy Steve Witkoff for calling Vladimir Putin a “humanitarian” after Putin released American Stephen Hubbard, convicted in Russia of serving as a mercenary. Vance said Witkoff was doing his job as a diplomat and that Americans should celebrate Hubbard’s return rather than criticize the words used to secure it.
