Business Insider: Map shows how much Trump's approval ratings have changed in each state since he took office

In January 2017, the month Trump was sworn in to office, he was broadly popular across a wide geographic area. Trump had a negative net approval rating — the difference in the share of the population approving of his performance minus the percentage disapproving — in only six states and Washington, DC. [...]

By December 2018, Trump's net approval rating had declined in every state and DC. Drops in net approval ranged from a modest 6 percentage-point fall in South Dakota to a massive 36-point swing against the president in New Mexico. [...]

Trump's approval ratings even saw modest declines across several regions of the country since Morning Consult's November 2018 release, with a fall in net approval in all but seven states. It's worth noting, however, that most of the changes since November were small, and could be the result of normal statistical sampling error.
