Trump's Approval Sinks to Historic Low at 39% Amid Policy Rejection

Donald Trump is facing historically low approval ratings as he nears the first 100 days of his second term, with multiple major polls showing his approval around 39%—the lowest for any president at this stage in modern polling history. The decline is attributed to widespread dissatisfaction with his handling of key issues like the economy, tariffs, and immigration, with even some former supporters and independent voters turning against him. While Trump's core base remains relatively loyal, the loss of support among nonpartisan and swing voters is driving the sharp decline. Trump's response has been to attack pollsters and the media, accusing them of bias and calling for investigations into their polling practices, rather than addressing the underlying discontent. Analysts warn that if Trump does not adjust his messaging and policies, he risks further alienation and political damage that could extend to his allies in Congress. The overall sentiment among voters is one of chaos and negativity, with many describing his term as 'scary' and 'chaotic,' casting doubt on his administration's ability to govern effectively moving forward.
