Sustained growth in the U.S. economy is boosting President Trump’s approval ratings and even driving groups who don’t like him to express optimism in their economic future.

In a just-released survey, Zogby Analytics put Trump’s approval rating at 46 percent, among his highest, though 51 percent still disapprove of him.

“President Trump's job approval rating has improved because the current economic conditions in the U.S. are getting better,” said the survey analysis provided to Secrets.

“There's increased optimism among businesses due to the recent tax cuts passed by Republicans and the stock market is at an all time high,” Zogby added.

The survey is the latest evidence that Americans are far more concerned with the economy and their economic situation than Trump’s fights, tweets and antics.

“At the end of the day people vote with their checkbooks,” said Jonathan Zogby.

And after stringing together several victories on taxes, regulations and energy policies, a total of 81 major wins in his first year, Trump’s base is also returning home, said the pollster.

Even Hispanics. “Trump's numbers improved among Hispanic voters to a previous high of 45 percent approve/55 percent disapprove,” said Zogby.

Overall, he added:

The president's numbers have improved because he has rebounded with some elements of his base. Trump's numbers with men and women are both better-among men, his job approval is 52% approve/47% disapprove, while support among women has crept up to 40% approve and 54% disapprove.

Other key points:

He continues to have a good approval rating among white voters-52% approve/43% disapprove.

The president's job approval rating is very strong among certain groups: weekly Walmart shoppers—58% approve/38% disapprove, NASCAR fans—64% approve/33% disapprove, homeowners-52% approve/46% disapprove and voters who have lost jobs-57% approve/41% disapprove.

Trump's numbers are also up among groups he has recently had trouble with-union voters-48% approve/51% disapprove, voters living in small cities-47% approve/46% disapprove and voters earning $75,000-$100,000 annually (57% approve/42% disapprove).

47% of women voters feel good about economic conditions in the next four years.

Among Hispanics, a majority (54%) think the economy will be good (excellent and good combined) the next four years.
