Trump approval rating hits second-term low in new polling

The decline reflects broad disapproval of his handling of the Iran war and the economy, with 64% rejecting his economic performance, pollsters said.

  • President Donald Trump's approval rating fell to around 35-37%, marking a second-term low influenced by rising gas prices and the war with Iran, according to Reuters/Ipsos and New York Times/Siena polls.
  • Across all voters, a majority disapprove of Trump's handling of the economy and cost of living, with about 63% to 69% disapproving and around 63% viewing the Iran war as the wrong decision.
  • Republican approval of Trump has decreased but remains strong on some issues, such as immigration and the Iran conflict, with Republican support dropping from around 91% at term start to 79%, while overall voter dissatisfaction affects the political landscape ahead of midterm elections.
