Trump enjoys strong support among voters under 65, <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >including solid gains<\/a> with African-American and Hispanic-Latino groups, and a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/trump-ties-best-ever-approval-rating-in-new-poll-crushing-democrats-narrative\/\" title=\"Trump Ties Best-Ever ...

Conversely, voters aged 65 and older primarily disapprove of his performance.<\/p>\n<p>The summit featured notable moments, such as a B-2 stealth bomber flyover during the leaders&#8217; arrival, symbolizing U.S. military strength. Trump addressed media criticism, asserting he did not suffer a defeat by hosting Putin in the U.S., and criticized the Democratic-controlled media&#8217;s portrayal of the event. The poll suggests that Trump&#8217;s standing is strengthening in the wake of this summit, notably among younger voters.  <\/p>\n<div id=\"ld-4686-3758\"><\/div>\n<p><script>(function(w,d,s,i){w.ldAdInit=w.ldAdInit||[];w.ldAdInit.push({slot:14832835450050406,size:[0, 0],id:\"ld-4686-3758\"});if(!d.getElementById(i)){var j=d.createElement(s),p=d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];j.async=true;j.src=\"https:\/\/cdn2.decide.dev\/_js\/ajs.js\";j.id=i;p.parentNode.insertBefore(j,p);}})(window,document,\"script\",\"ld-ajs\");<\/script><\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>A new poll conducted after President Donald Trump&rsquo;s high-stakes Friday meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Alaska shows his job approval rose and is in strong positive territory among most age groups.<\/p>\n<p>An <a href=\"https:\/\/insideradvantage.com\/trump-approval-surges-post-summit-54-44-all-voters-under-65-years-of-age-approve-older-voters-not-so-much\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">InsiderAdvantage poll<\/a> conducted from Friday through Sunday found Trump&rsquo;s approval rate at 54 percent and his disapproval at 44 percent.<\/p>\n<p>The approval number is up from last month, when the polling firm found <a href=\"https:\/\/insideradvantage.com\/joint-insideradvantage-trafalgar-group-national-survey-majority-of-voters-approve-of-trumps-job-performance-at-six-month-mark-awareness-of-criminal-referral-starting-to-increase\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">50 percent<\/a> approved of his job performance and 48 percent disapproved.<\/p>\n<p>&ldquo;Donald Trump now has an advantage among every age group other than the most senior of voters.
