First, Rasmussen is well-known to have a strong conservative bias. Second, the numbers are not good even with that bias. He still has a majority disapproval with them, and has a -11 rating of Strongly Approve vs. Strongly Disapprove. Third, the graphic shows a general downward trend overall even factoring in temporary ups and downs.
If this is the best Trump can do, that's pretty bad.
Keep in mind, its not Rasmussin making up numbers that causes the bias, its the method of polling (telephone surveys). So their relative numbers over time are pretty good. And Trump is looking pretty bad. At this point in his presidency Obama was at 58% approval.
After the smoke clears, no there is there, no impeachment, and mud on the faces of the dems... the pubs will be handed a super majority (or close to it) in 2018 because the idiots are going to die on this hill.
They look crazier than their extreme fringe who they are bending to. This is not good for the country.
I still like Gallup, the granddaddy of pollsters. Indeed, they 'sat out' the recent Presidential election since they did not feel like they had a formula that could accurately predict the race, due to people changing to using cell phones only, blocking calls, etc.
Anyway, they do keep polling for things like Trump's approval rating and such:

I don't pay attention to any poll. They are not going to sway my vote one way or another.
Certainly what most are doing now. The problem with polls are the pollsters. There's now absolute way to take a tiny slice based on demographics and get it right.
Some got it quite right for decades, but nobody came close to being right last cycle.
BTW Rasmussen is right in there with Gallup and Reuters in the world of polling. They are the big three.
