Trump's Economy Approval Slumps to Lowest Level in Polls.
President Donald Trump's approval on the economy has reached an all-time low, according to a recent poll by AP-NORC. With only 31% of U.S. adults approving of his handling of economic issues, this marks the lowest level of economic approval he has registered since taking office. In March, 40% approved of Trump's performance on the economy.
Trump is facing significant challenges in recovering from public backlash on key issues such as his management of the federal government and immigration policies. The Republican president's ability to hold onto his party's support is also dwindling. The latest poll highlights a concerning trend: Trump has struggled to maintain approval ratings on issues that were once his strongholds.
On crime, for example, Trump's approval rating has dropped from 53% in March to 43%. Immigration approvals have declined even more sharply, falling from 49% last month to 38%. Even border security – an area where Trump tends to perform relatively well – has seen a slight decline in recent months.
The decline in economic approval is a cause for concern, especially among Republicans. According to the poll, only about 69% of Republicans now approve of how Trump handles the economy, down from 78% in March. This indicates that Trump's party may start to question his economic policies more seriously as the 2026 midterms approach.
Experts say that Trump's struggles with public opinion on key issues will likely have long-term implications for his re-election prospects and the future of his party.

I think this is a sign that Trump's presidency might be running out of steam... His approval ratings just keep slipping, especially among Republicans. It's like they're starting to see him as more of an obstacle than a solution when it comes to economic issues 
. And with the midterms coming up in 2026, I can imagine some of these Republican lawmakers starting to wonder if Trump's policies are really the best for their constituents 
.
he started off strong but now it's all downhill 
republicans are getting restless too, only 69% still backing him that's a huge drop from march 
and crime is a big one for trumps approval 
immigration policies are always gonna be a sore spot, but this is getting out of hand 
2026 midterms are coming and trump needs to step up his game if he wants to stay in office 
especially with all the important stuff he's dealing with like immigration and crime... like how can u not get approval when ppl r hurting & struggling? it's def concerning that republicans are also losing faith in him 
Trump's economy approval has been struggling for a while now, but I guess it's still a bit surprising to see it hit an all-time low 
. It seems like he's losing ground on issues that were once considered strong points for him, like immigration and border security 
. The 2026 midterms can't come soon enough for Trump - his economic policies are definitely taking a hit from public backlash 
.
, 31% approval rate? I mean, he's been in office for like, forever... guess that old saying "don't count your chickens before they hatch" is super relevant right now 
. But seriously, it's interesting to see how quickly his approval ratings can drop, even on issues where he tends to have a strong hand. Guess all the tweeting and golfing has taken its toll 
. Also, 69% of Republicans approve? That's like saying "oh, yeah, we're totally not worried about our economy" 
. Anyway, time will tell if he can turn it around or if his party is just gonna have to live with the consequences of his... um, let's call them "creative" policies 
.
. Remember when he said 'we're gonna make America great again'? Now, it feels like they're trying to fix the broken stuff instead 
.
. Trump's economy approval is plummeting for a reason – because it doesn't work for most Americans 
...
... just saying.
.
I mean, come on... 31% approval on the economy? That's crazy low! It's like, he can't even get it right on the one thing that's supposed to be his strong suit. And now, only 69% of Republicans are on board with him? That's a major problem for Trump in the midterms. I've got friends who know people in his camp and they're freaking out about this... apparently, some folks are already talking about a possible challenger 
and btw, why do politics have to be so complicated? can't we just talk about ice cream or something instead? 
. and don't even get me started on how he's messing up immigration policies... like, what was he thinking with those family separation policies? 
. this is all just a mess waiting to happen 
. I'm not surprised, tbh. He's been all over the place on everything from crime to immigration. His numbers were already shaky, but this new poll just confirms it. The fact that only 31% of adults approve of his economic handling is crazy low. It's like he's burning bridges with his own party 
.
. I think experts are right – this is gonna have long-term implications for his re-election prospects and the party as a whole.
