Overview
- CNN data analyst Harry Enten called the last 10 days the worst polling stretch of Trump's second term.
- Recent national polls show Trump's net approval ranging from -14 in Marquette to -26 in AP-NORC, with Fox and Marist at -17 and Reuters/Ipsos at -22.
- Aggregated readings indicate his net standing with independents has dropped from about -4 in January to roughly -43 now.
- His net rating on inflation has moved from +3 in January to about -34, which Enten identifies as a key factor in the decline.
- Enten warned that if these levels hold into 2026, Republican majorities in the House and Senate could be at risk.
