Trump insists approval is ‘highest ever’ as polls show decline

President Donald Trump claimed on Truth Social that his "REAL POLL NUMBERS" are at their highest, but he failed to provide any data to substantiate this assertion.

Multiple recent polls contradict Trump's statement, showing a significant decline in his approval rating among Americans.

A Reuters/Ipsos poll indicated only 34 percent approval, while an Economist/YouGov survey found 39 percent approval for Trump.

The RealClearPolitics average places Trump's approval at 40.4 percent, which is lower than his average during his final days in office.

Trump's low polling numbers are anticipated to contribute to potential defeats for his party in the upcoming midterm elections, as he has focused on legacy projects and partisan events rather than addressing affordability concerns.
