Trump's Approval Ratings Dip as Economic Concerns Grow
Polls show a slight decline in President Trump's approval ratings, driven by inflation worries, controversial policies, and partisan divides.
- President Trump's approval rating has fallen to an average of 44-45%, down from 47% shortly after his second term began in January.
- Economic concerns, including rising inflation and proposed tariffs on key trading partners, are contributing to increased public disapproval.
- While Trump retains strong support among Republicans (over 90% approval), his approval among independents and Democrats remains low at 37% and 4%, respectively.
- Policies like mass deportations and reduced diversity programs receive mixed reactions, while efforts to cut federal agencies and elevate Elon Musk's role face notable criticism.
- Congressional approval has risen to 29%, largely driven by Republican enthusiasm, marking its highest level in nearly four years.
