Trump’s Poll Numbers: A Remarkable Collapse? Or Not?
The article observes a prolonged slump in President Trump’s approval numbers, currently hovering around 38% approval and 58% disapproval, a level not seen in his second term. This significant downturn challenges the political consensus on the stability of approval ratings, as his typically reliable base of support appears to be eroding. A decline in approval among white voters without college degrees, a shift back to the left by young and nonwhite voters, and a decrease in independent support all suggest that the coalition that propelled Trump into office is fracturing, making a recovery more challenging.
