Two-thirds of Americans say country is headed in the wrong direction: ABC News/Washington Post/Ipsos poll

The surveys show weaker confidence in Trump’s leadership and issue handling, with approval at 34% in Pew’s national poll.

  • A new ABC News / Washington Post / Ipsos poll shows Donald Trump facing rising public disapproval, with 62% of Americans unhappy with his performance, driven largely by concerns over inflation, affordability, and the cost of living.
  • Economic management is a major weak point, as large majorities disapprove of his handling of inflation and living costs, while many respondents say rising fuel and energy prices linked to the Iran conflict are affecting their finances.
  • Foreign policy is also drawing criticism, with most Americans disapproving of Trump’s handling of the Iran war and relations with allies, amid ongoing tensions, uncertain negotiations with Tehran, and plans to reduce U.S. troop presence in Germany.
