Trump Approval Falls to Record Low of 31% as Midterms Near, Reuters/Ipsos Poll Finds
The poll also found Democrats ahead by 12 points on the generic ballot as voters cited gasoline prices and a weak economy.
- President Donald Trump's approval rating fell to 31% on Monday, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll, while registered voters favored Democrats 47% to 35% in the generic ballot question for November 3 congressional elections.
- High gasoline prices surged following Trump's military strikes on Iran and Israel in February, driving voter dissatisfaction; 68% of Americans disapprove of his handling of the economy.
- Support for the Republican Party dropped significantly among women, with 50% planning to vote Democratic compared to 32% for Republican candidates; 37% of self-identified Republicans also disapprove of Trump's economic management.
- Democrats now hold a 12-point advantage in the generic ballot, the widest margin of the current election cycle, bolstering their hopes of seizing control of both the House and the Senate.
- Losing control of either chamber could complicate Trump's legislative agenda during his final two years, though national polls do not capture district-by-district contest nuances where Republicans hold structural advantages.
