Trump Approval Rating Hits Record Low as Fuel Prices and Iran Tensions Mount

A new Reuters/Ipsos poll shows former President Donald Trump’s approval rating has dropped to 36%, the lowest since his return to office. Rising fuel costs and fears over a potential war with Iran are weighing heavily on public opinion. Only 25% of Americans approve of his handling of living costs, and just 29% back his overall economic performance. Both figures mark the lowest levels across all his presidencies and trail those of his predecessor. Support for U.S. strikes on Iran slipped to 35%, while 61% now oppose military action. Nearly half of respondents believe a conflict with Iran would make the country less safe. Despite the broad declines, Trump retains strong support among Republican voters. The poll underlines growing voter concerns over economic pressures and geopolitical risks as the 2024 campaign heats up.
