Trump joins Biden and Carter with ‘historically bad’ approval rating

Donald Trump Harry Enten Jimmy Carter Joe Biden
  • President Donald Trump 's approval ratings on inflation are considered "dismal" and "historically bad," according to CNN chief data analyst Harry Enten.
  • An Ipsos poll in May showed Trump 50 percentage points underwater on inflation, improving slightly to minus-47 points in June.
  • Enten noted Trump's inflation disapproval "takes the cake" when compared to Joe Biden and Jimmy Carter, who had similar low ratings during their presidencies.
  • These poor poll numbers are a concern for Republicans, especially when considering the upcoming midterm elections.
  • Despite Trump's claims, the Labor Department reported inflation slowed in June, with the annual rate declining to 3.5 percent, though it remains above the Federal Reserve's 2 percent target.
