Tomorrow marks 100 days since U.S. President Donald Trump 1 was inaugurated. It's considered a milestone 2 for an American leader. And the president is expected to attend a rally in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on Saturday to talk about his accomplishments 3. Like the three previous presidents, Mr. Trump has gotten mixed reviews on his first 100 days in office, but he's gotten lower approval ratings.


In a CNN/ORC poll conducted between April 22nd and April 25th, 44 percent of respondents said they approve of the way Donald Trump is handling his job as president, 54 percent said they disapprove 4. The findings were similar in several other national polls.


On the issue of national security, 50 percent of respondents approve of the president's work, 48 percent disapprove. That number has held steady in recent months.


For health care policy, 36 percent approve of the job the president is doing, 61 percent disapprove. That number took a hit after Republicans in Congress failed to pass the first version of their plan to repeal 5 and replace Obamacare, though they say they're working on a compromise.


On immigration, 41 percent approve, 57 percent disapprove. The president's executive order temporarily banning immigration from certain countries is current tied up in court.


But regarding the Supreme 6 Court, the president's nomination 7 of Judge Neil Gorsuch to fill a vacancy 8 was a success. He was narrowly confirmed by the Senate and is now seated on the bench.


And on the economy, 59 percent said U.S. economic conditions are good, 41 percent said they're poor. The stock market has continued to climb despite hitting some bumps.
