Fox News Poll Finds Economic Concerns Shaping Voters’ Views Ahead of Midterms

The poll found 63% of Americans say Trump has made the economy worse, while 62% call grocery prices a major problem.

  • On Wednesday, Fox News chief political analyst Brit Hume presented poll results showing 63% of Americans believe President Donald Trump's administration has made the economy worse, marking an 11-point increase in negative perception since 2025.
  • Rising costs are driving this frustration, with 62% of respondents citing grocery prices and 61% flagging gas prices as 'major problem,' representing a 13% increase in voter concern since the 2024 election cycle.
  • Voter frustration extends to policy, as discontent with Trump's tariffs grew to 64% over the last year, while only 8% of those polled expressed enthusiasm for current government operations.
  • Vice President JD Vance urged voters to 'give us another couple of years' to continue the administration's work, though Hume argued these price-driven frustrations are 'plaguing' the GOP and dragging down approval ratings ahead of 2026 midterms.
  • Next week, President Trump will meet with Gulf leaders at the UN General Assembly to discuss a potential plan to end the Iran war, potentially addressing a political liability before the midterm elections.
