Trump’s approval rating has fallen to 37%, one of the lowest points since he returned to the White House. In contrast, 63% of Americans disapprove of the way he is handling his job.
This new low nearly mirrors his weakest point ever recorded — the aftermath of the January 6, 2021 Capitol riot, when public anger over his leadership reached historic levels.
The Economy and Cost of Living Dominate Concerns
The poll found that 47% of respondents named the economy and cost of living as their top concern, more than any other issue. Inflation, high grocery prices, and rent costs continue to weigh heavily on households.
Surprisingly, despite Trump’s long-standing focus on immigration, only 10% of those surveyed identified it as their primary concern.
When asked about the direction of the country, 68% said things were going “pretty badly” or “very badly,” while just 32% said the U.S. is doing “fairly well.”
Many Say Trump’s Policies Have Made Things Worse
- 61% believe his policies have worsened economic conditions.
- Only 27% say his approach has improved things.
In foreign policy, the trend is similar: 56% say Trump has weakened America’s global standing, while 32% think he has strengthened it.
