President Trump’s approval rating has crashed to a new low, with the majority of Americans rejecting his disastrous economic policies and reckless aggression toward Iran.
President Donald Trump’s approval rating has nosedived to just 37%, hitting a second-term low, according to a recent New York Times/Siena poll. The survey reveals that nearly two-thirds of voters condemn Trump’s reckless decision to escalate military conflict with Iran, recognizing the immense human and financial costs of endless war, with fewer than a quarter believing the conflict is justified.
Economic anxieties are also at the forefront for voters. A staggering 64% disapprove of Trump’s mishandling of the economy, a sphere where he once claimed competence. The majority further criticize his failures in addressing the soaring cost of living, his inhumane immigration policies, and his one-sided approach to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, which has only deepened suffering and instability.
While Republican loyalists continue to back Trump’s destructive agenda and militarism in the Middle East, independents and other groups are increasingly rejecting his leadership, recognizing the urgent need for policies that prioritize peace, justice, and economic fairness.
