"In the immediate wake of the shooting, some wondered if it would result in a boost in polls that sometimes accompanies such an event, and sometimes doesn't."
"Trump has been showered with bad polling news for most of his second term, with recent surveys reflecting all-time low approval ratings and disastrous numbers with independents."
"The short answer is no, Trump did not get an approval bump. In the New York Times average of polls, Trump's approval rating is statistically unchanged since the shooting."
"Perhaps more sobering for Trump are the results from the Rasmussen tracking poll, which showed a plunge from 45 percent the day after the shooting to 41 percent on May 6."
Following the shooting incident at the White House Correspondents' Dinner, Trump's approval ratings did not experience a significant increase. Despite speculation about a potential rallying effect, polls showed minimal movement. Trump's approval rating in the New York Times average remained statistically unchanged, while the Rasmussen poll indicated a decline. Factors such as Trump's current political environment and previous events contributed to the lack of a boost in approval ratings, with many polls reflecting all-time lows and unfavorable numbers among independents.
