    Trump's approval rating slips as Americans worry about economy
    U.S. President Donald Trump's approval rating has fallen slightly in recent days as more Americans worry about the direction of the U.S. economy and Trump threatens to impose tariffs on many countries, a Reuters/Ipsos poll found. The six-day poll ended on Tuesday with 44 per cent of respondents approving of the job Trump is doing, down from 45 per cent in the January 24-26 poll. The percentage of Americans who disapprove of the job President Trump is doing rose sharply in the latest poll, to 51 percent, compared to 41 percent when he first took office. Trump's immigration policies received relatively high approval ratings, with 47 percent of respondents supporting his policies, including a promise to increase deportations of illegal immigrants. That percentage is little changed from January. But the percentage of Americans who think the economy is on the wrong track rose to 53% from 43% in the latest survey. Public support for Trump's economic management fell to 39 percent from 43 percent previously.
