• Disapproval spans across key demographic groups, including 64% of independents, 94% of Democrats, and growing numbers of Republicans, with only 53% of Republicans strongly approving of Trump’s job performance in June, down from 61% in April.
• Gas prices remain a significant concern for over three-quarters of Americans, impacting household budgets and leading 45% of respondents to forgo summer vacations, primarily due to cost.
• Economic dissatisfaction is influencing voter enthusiasm, with Democrats showing more motivation to vote in the midterms and some traditional Republican supporters expressing doubts about Trump's economic management.
