Trump's approval rating is the lowest for any president one year into his term NBC WSJ poll says
But the President appears to be reaping some benefits from the best ratings of the economy since Bill Clinton occupied the Oval Office. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Trump fared well in Israel, where he enjoys an approval rating of 67 percent-approximately the same mark the US ally gave the second Bush administration. The ratings eroded afterward but then stabilized between 36-37 percent, Gallup said. No interviewing was completed on January 16 due to weather conditions at call center locations.
Gallup found that the median approval of USA leadership in 134 countries plummeted to only 30 percent, down 18 points from President Barack Obama's final year in office in 2016.
Americans are split over whether President Trump is mentally fit for office, but they're certain he's not an egg head.
In its analysis, the Gallup report, released just days before President Donald Trump embarks on a trip to Davos, Switzerland, for the World Economic Forum, criticized Trump for keeping his campaign promise to put "America First" in his foreign policy.

Tillerson sees progress in fixing Iran deal with Europeans
But despite the President's snub, the US Secretary of State Mr Tillerson visted the site this morning. Officials also said the embassy was financed entirely by the sale of other USA property in England.
The approval rating of the USA dropped to 30 percent in 2017, sinking way below Barack Obama's score of 48 percent two years ago, and even dropping behind the previous low of 34 percent during George W. Bush's final year in office. Before Trump, first-year elected presidents had averaged 44% approval from those who identify with the opposition party. Transcripts of congressional testimony from a co-founder of the firm behind an inflammatory dossier about Trump's purported connections to Russian businessmen and mobsters has also reignited speculation about the president's labyrinthine financial dealings. APPROVAL - Trump's gone from 11 points under water in job approval last spring to 22 points today, a shift that occurred by July and has stabilized since. "Trump is going to get worse and will become uncontainable with the pressures of the presidency".
The Trump's highest approval rating in office (57 percent) was by Rasmussen in January 2017. She is at a 47 percent favourable rating while Donald's approval number stands at 40 percent, according to the CNN poll conducted by SSRS. Next lowest at one year was Gerald Ford's 45 percent in 1975; average pre-Trump approval- since Harry Truman's presidency - is 63 percent.
"The recent drop in approval ratings is unrelated to the world's being less familiar with the new USA administration", Gallup notes. It ranks fourth behind a 77-point gap in Obama's eighth year as president and 76-point gaps in Obama's and George W. Bush's fourth years. Trump's low job approval rating imperils the Republican congressional majorities given the strong relationship between presidential approval ratings and midterm election outcomes.
"With Trump's ratings showing only modest change over his first year in office, it is possible that opinions of him have essentially crystallized and thus will be more resistant to change regardless of national conditions", Gallup's Jeffrey Jones wrote.
