Trump Viewed Negatively On Every Issue Measured In Poll
President Donald Trump's approval rating has dropped to 37 percent, the lowest of his second term, according to a poll by ABC News, The Washington Post, and Ipsos.

- ▪On issues like inflation and cost-of-living, Trump’s approval ratings are 27 percent and 23 percent respectively.
- ▪A majority of Americans disapprove of Trump’s military actions against Iran, with approval for those strikes at 34 percent.
- ▪Other polls, such as Rasmussen Reports and Insider Advantage, show higher approval ratings of 43 and 44 percent respectively.
