Trump Approval With Women Falls Sharply as Midterms Approach

ActiVote found his net approval among women fell 14 points since June as affordability and the economy drove growing dissatisfaction.

  • A Financial Times poll carried out by Focaldata found that only 33 percent of registered voters approve of President Donald Trump's performance, marking a record low since May with less than two months before November's midterm elections.
  • Women increasingly disapprove of Trump's performance, with ActiVote data indicating his net approval among women fell from minus 16 in June to minus 30 in August, driven by widespread concern over the economy and cost of living.
  • Republican Representative Kat Cammack of Florida acknowledged voters are demanding results on affordability, stating, "women are telling us their top concern is affordability, and they're going to back whoever actually delivers on it." Gallup data shows Democrats holding a 6-point advantage in party identification.
  • As fuel costs hit an unprecedented national average of $5.85 a gallon on Friday, Trump told reporters the Iran conflict is a "military conflict" and the Hormuz Strait is "not very necessary anymore." Economic frustration compounds midterm vulnerability.
  • These shifting numbers present a significant challenge for Republicans hoping to retain control of Congress in November, as pollster Matthews noted that Democratic women are showing greater enthusiasm, potentially altering turnout dynamics that usually favor the party in power.
