Overview
- President Trump's approval ratings have fallen to the lowest levels for any modern president at this point in their term, averaging between 39% and 42% across major polls.
- Trump has labeled polls from outlets such as The Washington Post, ABC News, and The New York Times as 'fake' and called for investigations into alleged 'election fraud' by pollsters.
- Key drivers of public dissatisfaction include his handling of the economy, immigration policies, sweeping tariffs, and executive orders dismantling government programs.
- Despite declining overall support, Trump retains strong backing from his Republican base, with many continuing to support his core policy agenda.
- This marks only the second time since Ronald Reagan that a president has failed to maintain approval ratings above 50% within their first 100 days, with Bill Clinton being the other exception.
