Mr. Trump now has an unusual chance to fashion something like the presidential honeymoon that media bitterness over Hillary Clinton’s loss denied him when he took office. Team Trump should use the Mueller report to pivot to issues, like the economy and the opioid crisis, that matter to swing voters who will decide the 2020 presidential election.

 

As they do, Mr. Trump needs to understand that despite months of relentlessly railing against a “witch hunt,” his supporters are not as revved up as his detractors. That’s the conclusion of the March 20 Fox News poll, which surveyed voters before the Mueller probe ended. While it found Mr. Trump’s approval rating to be 46%—approaching his February 2017 high of 48%—only 27% strongly approve of the president while 42% strongly disapprove.

 

The Mueller report may help Mr. Trump’s rating and, more important, drive an increase in his strongly-approve numbers and a decrease in his strongly disapproves. After all, he was proved right and his worst detractors were proved wrong. But reiterating old grievances about the investigation’s unfairness won’t materially change those ratings.

 

The president should focus his time, voice and tweets on the roaring economy, impressive job creation and bigger paychecks. The Fox poll found that even with partisan polarization and the clutter of the Mueller investigation, 50% approve of his handling of the economy, while 42% disapprove. A March 17 CNN survey found 71% rate economic conditions as good, versus only 27% who said they were poor.

 

Still, the administration needs to propose new policies to keep prosperity growing and spreading, and defend the policies it already put in place. For while Americans feel good about the present state of the economy, only 37% in the Fox poll said they were confident about it. Forty-three percent felt nervous about the economy and 17% were mixed. Reassurance is now critical.

 

Whatever policies the administration pursues, it should remember that in the Fox News poll former Vice President Joe Biden beats Mr. Trump 47% to 40% and Sen. Bernie Sanders leads him 44% to 41%, while Mr. Trump defeats Sen. Elizabeth Warren 42% to 41% and Sen. Kamala Harris 41% to 39%. The most important number is that between 13% and 20% of voters are still up for grabs.

 

It is on these swing voters—not the loyal GOP base—that Team Trump must focus. Neither party can win in 2020 with only its strongest supporters. The party that mounts the better effort to persuade swing voters will likely be the winner of the coming presidential election.
