New polling from Rasmussen Reports shows that 50 percent of Americans now believe the United States is on the right track – a historic high.

Rasmussen pollster Mark Mitchell stated that the results were significant because this was the first time in the company’s “polling history A MAJORITY says the country is on the right track.” Rasmussen first began tracking whether Americans believed the country was on the wrong track or the right track in 2006.

“Never thought I would see it,” Mitchell stated, according to the Washington Examiner. “I don’t think the Republican Party understands the gravity of the gift which Trump has given them. Unprecedented presidency.”

Rasmussen isn’t the only polling agency that shows rising optimism in the direction of the country. The RealClearPolitics average also shows that 44 percent of Americans now believe the country is on the right track – the highest since 2009.
