Poll shows Trump’s approval rating has plummeted

  • Donald Trump's approval rating has fallen to 33 per cent, tying the lowest level of his presidency, according to a four-day Reuters/Ipsos poll.
  • The decline follows US strikes on Iran alongside Israel, which paralysed oil trade through the Strait of Hormuz and drove up American gasoline prices.
  • Eighty per cent of respondents believe US involvement in Iran will drag on for an extended period, while only one in five consider the conflict worth it.
  • Voters currently favour Democrats over Republicans on managing the US economy by 38 per cent to 35 per cent, marking a shift for the first time in nearly a decade.
  • The Republican lead on immigration policy has narrowed to a presidency low of just two percentage points, down from a 26-point advantage in January 2025.
