   Headline: "Trump approval rating rebounds as new poll   
   shows him hitting three-month high"   
      
   [excerpt] The poll of likely voters by InsiderAdvantage   
   shows 50% approve of the job Trump is doing while 41%   
   disapprove, with the remaining 9% undecided.   
      
   Monday’s results mark the highest raw approval rating   
   for the president in an InsiderAdvantage survey since   
   late September, when 52% of respondents approved of   
   his performance.   
      
   The nine-percentage-point net approval rating for   
   Trump is the highest since mid-August, when 54% gave   
   Trump a positive approval rating and 44% gave him a   
   negative approval rating, a spread of 10 percentage   
   points.   
      
   "This survey was conducted after Trump's speech to   
   the nation [Dec. 17] and after the release of the most   
   recent CPI inflation report," said InsiderAdvantage   
   pollster Matt Towery. [end excerpt]

   Before some ill-informed poster wants to question the   
   source, the pollster InsiderAdvantage was the second   
   most accurate pollster for the 2024 election. They   
   also have a great track record of accuracy for the   
   2016 and 2020 elections.   
      
   Headline: "2024 Most Valuable Pollster (MVP) Rankings"   
      
   [excerpt] The 3 categories of polls with the lowest   
   average error are presidential swing state polls   
   (2.59% average error), presidential national popular   
   vote polls (2.86% average error) and senate polls   
   (3.94% error).   
      
   Several top-10 pollsters focused (almost) entirely on   
   these three categories and did so accurately:   
      
   InsiderAdvantage (27 of their overall 28 polls) in 2nd place,   
   OnMessage (16 of their overall 17 polls) in 3rd place,   
   Rasmussen (34 of their 39 polls) in 4th place,   
   Trafalgar Group (28 of their overall 30 polls) in 5th place
