Americans like China more than Donald Trump, poll reveals
Some 44 per cent of Americans view China favourably but as little as 34 per cent feel the same about their commander-in-chief
China is now more popular among Americans than their own president, according to the latest polling.
Despite being cast as a bête noire coming to take American jobs during Donald Trump’s election campaign, the number of people who have a favourable impression of Beijing has risen seven per cent over the past year.
A Pew Research Centre survey of 1,505 respondents between 16 February and 15 March found 44 per cent of people now had a favourable view of China compared to 37 per cent this time last year.
Meanwhile, Mr Trump’s approval ratings have crashed to the lowest they have ever been for any president at this point in their first term.
His approval ratings have dipped below 40 per cent after just over two months in the Oval Office – with one poll putting it as low as 34 per cent.
