*Poll: Melania Trump Favorability Ticks Up

Melania Trump’s favorability is on the rise, according to a poll released Friday.

The first lady’s favorability rating is at 54 percent, a CNN survey conducted by SSRS finds. That number is slightly higher than the 51 percent of those polled who gave Trump a favorable rating in CNN’s June poll.

Thirty percent of those surveyed last week had an unfavorable view of Trump.

Eighty-three percent of Republicans indicated they had a favorable view of the 48-year-old former model, compared to 28 percent of Democrats. Fifty-six percent of Democrats had an unfavorable view of President Trump’s wife.

The poll was conducted as Trump embarked on her first major solo international tour in Africa last week, in which she visited Ghana, Kenya, Malawi, and Egypt.
