President Donald Trump’s approval rating fell in recent days to its lowest point since he returned to the White House, hit by a surge \u200bin fuel prices and widespread disapproval of the war he launched on Iran, a Reuters\/Ipsos poll found.
The four-day poll, completed on Monday, showed 36% of Americans approve of Trump’s \u200cjob performance, down from 40% in a Reuters\/Ipsos poll conducted last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Americans’ views on Trump soured significantly with regard to his stewardship over the economy and the cost of living, as gasoline prices have surged since the U.S. and Israel launched coordinated strikes on Iran on February 28. Just 25% of respondents approved of Trump’s handling of the cost of living, an issue that was at the center of his 2024 presidential election campaign.\u3001<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Only 29% of the \u200bcountry approves of Trump’s economic stewardship, the lowest rating in either of Trump’s presidential administrations and lower than any economic approval rating of his predecessor, Democrat Joe Biden. Voters’ worries \u200babout the economy and specifically the rising cost of living were a significant factor in Biden’s loss and Trump campaigned on a promise to create a \u2060vibrant economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WAR CONCERNS WEIGH
Trump’s standing within his Republican Party remains mostly strong. Only about one in five Republicans said they disapprove of his overall performance in the White House, little \u200bchanged from about one in seven last week. But the share of Republicans who disapprove of his handling of the cost of living rose to 34% from 27% last week.
Trump’s overall approval rating was 47% in the first days of his presidency and since last summer had largely held around 40%. It remains above his first administration’s low point of 33%, and a touch higher than Biden’s low of 35%.
The war in Iran could be changing that \u200bfor a president who took office promising to avoid “stupid wars.” The survey found 35% of Americans approve of the U.S. strikes on Iran, down from 37% in a Reuters\/Ipsos poll conducted last \u200bweek. Some 61% disapproved of the strikes, compared to 59% last week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MORE TROOPS TO REGION
Some 46% of respondents said the war in Iran will make the U.S. less safe in the long run, according to the latest poll. Only 26% said it would make the country safer and the rest said it wouldn’t have much effect either \u200bway. While Trump in recent days has suggested \u200bthe war could soon wind down, Iran \u2060has disputed Trump’s claims that negotiations were underway and Reuters reported on Tuesday that Washington is expected to send thousands of additional soldiers to the Middle East.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The average price of gasoline in America has surged by about a dollar a gallon since the war started, as the conflict has severely curtailed \u200boil shipments from the Middle East to the rest of the world. Experts warn that persistently higher fuel prices will eventually hit the \u200bwider economy.
Already, some 63% of \u2060Americans consider the U.S. economy to be “some<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
