Trump Approval Falls to Record-Low 36% as 2 Voter Blocs Abandon Him

3 articles · Updated · Strength In Numbers | G. Elliott Morris · Aug 4

Summary

  • Trump’s poll average has sunk to 36% approval and 61% disapproval, a net -25 that set fresh record lows for six straight days.
  • High-quality polls released over the past week put his best approval among U.S. adults at just 35%, leaving him below every other modern president at this stage except Richard Nixon in 1974.
  • The analysis says two groups of former supporters are driving the slide, while Democratic voters remain highly mobilized against both Trump and the GOP.
  • That erosion matters beyond Trump’s standing: the same weakness is showing up in the generic congressional ballot and issue-trust measures, signaling added midterm risk for Republicans.
