Recent polling from sources including Reuters/Ipsos and Pew shows Donald Trump's job approval in his second term declining to the low-to-mid 30s by mid-August 2026, with averages near 38% and net approval around -20 to -26. This marks a steady drop from post-inauguration highs near 47% and trails his first-term ratings at comparable points, driven primarily by voter dissatisfaction with economic management, inflation, and prices. Foreign policy handling, including tariffs and Middle East developments, has also weighed on numbers, widening the partisan divide. With 2026 midterm elections approaching, these trends shape trader assessments of whether approval stabilizes or reaches new lows before year-end, as historical patterns link sustained economic discontent to further erosion in presidential support.
