Trump's approval rating slips to 39%, economy weighs, Reuters/Ipsos poll finds

Trump's economic approval dropped to 33%, with only 27% supporting his cost of living management, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll of over 1,000 U.S. adults.

  • On Dec 16, the Reuters/Ipsos poll found 39% of U.S. adults approved of President Donald Trump's job performance, nearing his term's lowest rating.
  • Weak economic scores showed just 33% of U.S. adults approved Trump's economic handling, cost-of-living approval fell to 27%, while inflation stayed close to 3% amid tariff shocks and a government shutdown.
  • Among Republicans, the poll found 85% approved of Trump's overall performance, but their approval of his handling of the economy declined to 72 from 78, according to the latest survey.
  • Political implications emerge as growing affordability woes could be a serious political liability for Trump and his allies, despite his last year's presidential election promise to fix the economy.
  • Looking at month-to-month shifts, the Reuters/Ipsos poll shows approval down about 2 points from 41% earlier this month, within a point of the 38% mid-November low.
