Summary

Trump’s approval rating dropped to 43%, the lowest since his January return to office, amid backlash over new tariffs and a mishandled military strike disclosure.

The Reuters/Ipsos poll found only 37% approve of his economic leadership, and 34% support his foreign policy.

A majority view his tariff hikes as harmful, while 74% criticized the use of Signal to discuss a Yemen operation.

The poll, conducted online with 1,486 adults, showed bipartisan concern and a 2-point decline since March, reflecting rising unease over Trump’s policies.

    So many unreachable people in this country. 43%? How the fuck could it be above 10% is the mystery.

    And 37% still approve of his “economic leadership”? WTAF?

      “You know, I saw MadMax back in the day and it seemed like the lads were having a lot of fun.”

      Edit: Since this is not a meme sub: You know as well as I do that this many people genuinely believe Trump when he says this is somehow good for the US. The quote I’ve commonly read in connection with this is “finally the other countries will be paying their fair share!”.

      I think the male members of them would seriously cut their nuts off, get some black sneakers and chug some poison if donvict told them they need to catch a ride on the Hale-Bopp comet.

        most of them would say he was joking. because they’re a professionally fuckface whisperer.

        the ones that did as asked would get vaguely appreciation of their loyalty from trump himself.

      Something like 7% to 13% of poll responses are just trolling anyway (look up Lizardman’s Constant) and can’t be trusted. Assuming that ALL the trolls are voting to help Trump, we can see how many people unironically thinking that Trump it’s good.

      So a minimum of 43% - 13% = 30% of people are legitimate cultists.

      Down 4% today so far. Retirement fantasies evaporating. Probably good news for 20 somethings, they can buy more and if they survive the climate change famines, water wars, genocides, and non-renewable resource shortages, those shares will probably be worth a lot.

    Anyone else concerned that a felon rapist who is crashing our economy still has a 43% approval rating?

    The lowest so far. Wait until the inflation from his new set of international tariffs and resulting retaliatory tariffs kicks in.
