Trump’s approval rating in the US falls to 32% — Daily Maverick
In the United States, President Donald Trump’s job approval rating has fallen to 32%, the lowest level of his entire political career. This is according to the results of a Reuters/Ipsos poll published by Daily Maverick.
Republican support declines
The four-day online survey ended on Sunday and included 1,277 adult US residents. The study’s margin of error is 3 percentage points.
Trump’s work was approved by 73% of respondents who identify themselves as Republicans. A week earlier, this figure was 82%. The president’s overall approval rating in the previous Reuters/Ipsos poll was 35%.

Trump returned to the White House in January 2025, promising to curb inflation and end foreign wars. According to Reuters/Ipsos, a poll conducted shortly after he took office showed the president’s approval rating at 47%.
Cost of living and elections
Only 17% of participants in the new study approved of Trump’s actions regarding the cost of living. Americans named this the main issue that will influence their choice in the November 3 midterm elections. In those elections, the Republican Party will defend a slim majority in Congress.
As Reuters notes, Republican dissatisfaction with the president’s actions on the cost of living grew after the war with Iran began in February, accompanied by a sharp rise in gasoline and diesel fuel prices. For the first time among Republicans, the share of those who disapprove of Trump’s actions on this issue exceeded the number of favorable assessments — 51% versus 44%.
