Trump Approval Sinks Nationwide, Majority of Voters Say U.S. Headed the Wrong Way: Poll

It's only going to get worse as TACO turns back to his tariff wars and the effects of deporting farm and ranch workers hits the grocery stores.

Our nation needs Immigration Reform but TACO refuses to address the issue.

President Donald Trump is facing sinking approval ratings across the country, and a growing number of voters now believe the U.S. is headed in the wrong direction, according to new polling data released Friday.

A national Emerson College Polling survey found that only 45% of voters approve of the job Trump is doing as president, while 46% disapprove. Another 9% are neutral or unsure. That marks a steady slide for Trump, who had a 49% approval rating in January and was tied at 45% approval and disapproval just two months ago.


The poll also found that 53% of voters say the country is on the wrong track, while only 48% believe it’s headed in the right direction — a red flag for Trump and the Republican Party heading into next year’s midterms.


Even traditionally Republican strongholds are showing signs of turning. In Texas, where Trump won by nearly 14 points in 2024 and where no Democrat has carried the state in a presidential race since 1976, a new Texas Politics Project poll shows the president underwater for the first time in his second term.

In that poll, 51% of Texans disapprove of Trump, including a striking 44% who say they strongly disapprove. Only 27% say they strongly approve, with another 17% somewhat approving. Five percent were neutral.


Trump began his second term with 52% approval in Texas as recently as February, but that number fell to 47% by April. While he still enjoys support from 87% of Texas Republicans, the state is no longer the GOP stronghold it once was.

Democrats are now targeting Texas’s Senate race as a potential midterm flip. To retake control of the Senate, where Republicans hold a 53–47 edge, Democrats will need to win in double-digit Trump states like Texas, Iowa, Florida, or Ohio — since few battleground Republican-held seats remain in smaller-margin states.

GOP seats in Maine (which Trump lost) and North Carolina (which he won by just 3 points) are Democrats’ best chances, but with limited opportunities elsewhere, cracks in places like Texas could prove critical.


The Emerson College poll also showed Democrats slightly ahead of Republicans in a generic congressional matchup — 43% to 40%. About 18% of voters remain undecided.

“Looking ahead to next year’s Midterm Election, the Democrats have a slight edge over the Republicans, with independents breaking for the Democratic candidate 37% to 27%,” said Spencer Kimball, executive director of Emerson College Polling. “However, a significant 36% of independents are undecided, so this number is expected to shift.”

The Emerson national survey was conducted June 24–25 among 1,000 registered voters. It has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
What else can you expect from a mad man the Likes of Crazy Trump.
 
Trump's rating are falling before he gets his policies in place. Once the people have to live through the disaster, they will drop more. His economic policies would be a joke if they were not so damaging.
I did not know so many on this board are very wealthy and will benefit from Trump's ugly bill. It is true that the wealthy have been mistreated as the wealth gap goes wild. They deserved more money and power at a much faster rate. Why have they had to live without what is theirs?
I read a story about one of the Koch brothers buying oil from Indian lands. The truckers saw he was cheating them on loads and asked why he did it. He said "I want what is mine".
