President Obama’s approval rating is the highest it has been since May 2013, Politico reports.
“Overall, 50% of those surveyed said they approve of the job the president is doing so far in his final 365 days in office, up from the 46% rating he earned in his penultimate year. The 50% is also higher than the 47% approval average since 2009.”
