Margaret Brennan does not look like a happy bunny.
On Sunday evening, the CBS host reported on a poll that found that a majority of voters approve of Donald Trump’s job performance over his first three weeks in office.
“Our CBS poll finds that a majority of Americans, 53%, approve of the job he’s doing,” she said with a face like thunder.
“That’s a better approval number than he ever reached during his first term in the White House,” she continued.
Brennan then discussed the results with CBS’s Executive Director of Elections and Surveys, Anthony Salvanto.
Here is a transcript of the exchange:
BRENNAN: What’s driving this?
SALVANTO: I will keep it simple, Margaret. He’s doing, in the eyes of the public, what he said he would do in the campaign.
There’s political value in that. In fact, 70% of people say he’s doing what he promised. That’s whether they approve of him or not.
Now, there’s another part of this that continues over from the campaign. There were words that he was described as being tough, being energetic. And he still is today in big majority numbers.
So as people take a look in these first few weeks, there’s been a lot of activity. They’re getting that general sense of governance, and that’s being reflected in these early numbers.
BRENNAN: So that’s perception. What about the actual policies?
SALVANTO: Well, let’s start with the ones that are popular. And again, these echo a lot of what we saw in the campaign.
The idea of deporting those in the country illegally continues to be popular. We saw that in the campaign.
Sending troops to the U.S.-Mexico border. Again, majority in favor. We’d seen that in the campaign.
For his supporters in particular, the focus on ending DEI is popular. We’d seen in the campaign a lot of them thought those processes had gone too far.

In short, Donald Trump is popular with the American public and people are happy with the fact he is delivering on his promises.
Sadly for liberal media outlets like CBS, there are likely to be many tough days ahead.
