Trump approval rating holds steady as concerns over economy ease: Poll

  • President Donald Trump’s approval rating slightly declined to 42% in mid-May 2025, according to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted nationwide from May 16-18.
  • This change follows easing consumer concerns as the 12-month inflation rate slowed to 2.3%, the lowest since February 2021, amid a temporary 90-day tariff reduction between the U.S. And China.
  • The tariff pause came during ongoing U.S.-China negotiations after Trump's May 15 tour of Al Udeid Air Base in Qatar, with analysts warning trade uncertainty and supply disruptions may persist.
  • Trump’s net approval rating rose to-5.8 by mid-May, up nearly four points from April 29’s low of-9.7, but 50.9% of Americans still disapprove of his presidency.
  • Despite a stable but low popularity, economic measures like tariffs and inflation management remain key voter concerns, with economists suggesting these policies increase recession risks.
