  • Trump has labeled the polls 'fake' and accused pollsters and news organizations of 'election fraud,' calling for criminal investigations into their practices.
  • Voter dissatisfaction stems largely from concerns about the president's economic policies, including tariffs and inflation, as well as his immigration and foreign trade strategies.
  • Trump continues to criticize media outlets, accusing them of bias and 'Trump Derangement Syndrome,' while maintaining strong support among his Republican base.
  • Historically, presidents at the 100-day mark have enjoyed approval ratings above 50%, underscoring the significance of Trump's current standing.
