Trump’s Disapproval Rating Hits New High In Latest Poll

The poll found 66% disapprove of his handling of the Iran war and 76% disapprove of his cost-of-living response.

  • In the latest Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos poll published Sunday, President Donald Trump's disapproval rating hit 62%, an all-time high for his presidency, with overall approval at 37%.
  • Souring public opinion stems from Trump's handling of the economy and the Iran war, with 76% of Americans disapproving of his approach to the general cost of living and 72% disapproving of inflation management.
  • While Trump maintains 85% support among Republicans, the poll found 29% approve of Vice President JD Vance, 29% approve of Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, and 27% approve of FBI Director Kash Patel.
  • These figures pose significant challenges for the GOP six months before November's midterm elections, as Democrats hold a five-point advantage in House preference among registered voters.
  • Trump remains underwater by at least 9 points on every issue polled by the Post, ABC, and Ipsos, while The New York Times' 'Daily average of Trump.' tracking shows 39% approval as of May 3.
