There are just 12 states where Trump's job approval rating was above 50% for the entirety of 2017. That pales in comparison to the 41 states where then-President Barack Obama was above 50% approval for his first year on office. Trump's overall job approval number nationwide was never over 50% in Gallup polling at any point in 2017. The last time Trump's approval was over 40% in Gallup polling was at the end of May 2017 -- when he was at 41%. His job approval was highest in places like West Virginia, North Dakota and Wyoming where he won by huge margins in 2016.
