The Daily Beast • • nation
Key Points:
- A Reuters/Ipsos poll shows that for the first time in nearly a decade, more Americans view Democrats (37%) as better stewards of the economy compared to Republicans (36%).
- Rising energy costs, driven by Trump's conflict with Iran and resulting spikes in gasoline prices, have contributed to growing dissatisfaction with Republican economic management.
- Trump's presidential approval rating has dropped to 35%, nearing his second-term low, amid concerns over his handling of key national issues ahead of the midterm elections.
- Trump dismissed the unfavorable poll results on social media, accusing the media of fabricating numbers and touting his administration's achievements without providing evidence.
- Additional polls from CNN, AP-NORC, Quinnipiac, and CBS News reflect similarly low approval ratings for Trump and the Republican Party, with many Americans believing Republicans are worsening the cost-of-living crisis.
