Donald Trump averaged a 45% approval rating during the first quarter of his second term, according to a Gallup poll—marking the second-lowest score for any U.S. president at this stage in office since World War II.

During the same period in his first term, Trump held an even lower rating of 41%.

The most popular president during their first quarter in office remains John F. Kennedy, who enjoyed a 74% approval rating in 1961, followed by Dwight Eisenhower with 71% in 1953.

Since returning to office, Trump has signed a flurry of executive orders that have significantly disrupted the political landscape. Among the most notable moves was the creation of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by Elon Musk, as well as the launch of a global trade war through sweeping new tariffs.
Thomas Gift, associate professor of political science and director of the Centre on U.S. Politics at University College London, told Newsweek: "There's a widespread assumption—especially among progressive elites in major cities—that tariffs are politically damaging for Trump. But that may reflect more of an echo chamber than the national mood. A considerable number of Americans are four-square behind Trump's tariffs. That not only includes MAGA Republicans, but also populists on the left who are cheering on Trump's attacks on free trade."

So, how does it make you feel that your guy is rated the 2nd lowest since the end of WWII? Hmmmmmm?

President Donald Trump is registering the worst economic approval numbers of his presidential career amid broad discontent over his handling of tariffs, inflation and government spending, according to the latest CNBC All-America Economic Survey.

The survey found that the boost in economic optimism that accompanied Trump's reelection has disappeared, with more Americans now believing the economy will get worse than at any time since 2023 and with a sharp turn toward pessimism about the stock market.

Joe Biden was the best thing that ever happened to Donald Trump!

This stuff matters..to retards.

Liberals, leftists and other scum are all back to their natural state of TDS.

So there is no value in checking daily polls. He’s never running again anyhow, so he doesn’t care about polls.

His supporters don’t either. We’re so thankful to have the greatest President in our lifetime back where he belongs, we couldn’t care less what the mental patients have to say about it…other than..if they’re miserable, we’re happy.

It should be more than obvious that it is true.

He is ignoring polls and going straight ahead.
