Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich explained Monday in an op-ed on Fox News what the media is failing to inform the public regarding President Trump and his approval ratings. 

First, he said, the media has not put Trump’s low polling numbers in historical context. 

Trump’s current approval rating according to a recent average of polls is 39 percent, but President Reagan actually had similar numbers at one point during his presidency.

The second point Gingrich brings up is that the media has failed to even compare the president’s numbers to how some of his contemporary foreign counterparts are polling.
