Bush was at 77%.
Obama was at 77%.
Look at this, 86%.
of Republicans approve of the job that Donald Trump is doing at this point that is higher than either Obama or Bush had within their own party at this point.
Trump's magic touch has not seen a war off yet when it comes to the Republican base.

Okay, so we're talking about overall approval here.
How about the strongly approved, the strongly approved, not just like, but love, love.
Okay, we're going to look at these same presidents again.

What you see here is Trump is the only one who gets a majority at this point in their presidency.
Obama was at 48%.
Bush was at 47%.
You see here Trump at 53%.
