He finished with a Gallup poll approval rating of 65%, higher than that of every other departing president measured since Harry Truman. As he was leaving office, a CNN/USA TODAY/Gallup poll revealed 45% said they'd miss him.

Trump: Did not win the popular vote, Mrs. Clinton did. Trump's approval rating never hit the 50% mark.

Another interesting info on Bill Clinton.

Through the ages, the Presidents Club has seen its share of rivalries, alliances, even some true friendships. But no relationship is quite like the bond between George H. W. Bush and the man who defeated him in 1992. The connection surprised both men, and astonished many of their longtime aides. Bush would go so far as to suggest more than once that he might be the father that the Bill Clinton had always lacked—a notion that the younger man did not dispute. And if the closeness of the relationship surprised people, so did its origin: it was Bush’s actual son who made it happen.
