President Donald Trump’s approval rating dipped one point in Morning Consult’s weekly survey, to 46%, six points below the 52% high-point of his second term, as his rating has yet to recover from its downward spiral in the wake of his sweeping global tariffs announcement.
Sept. 2-7 net approval rating: Trump’s approval rating declined one point from last week, to 46%, in Morning Consult’s weekly survey, while his 51% disapproval rating remained stagnant—as Americans’ views of his job performance have yet to bounce back from a post-tariff decline from his 52% approval rating at the start of his second term, which is consistent with his record-high approval rating in March of his first term (this week’s survey of 2,202 registered voters was conducted Aug. 29-31 and has a two-point margin of error).
Aug. 27-18: Trump’s approval rating dipped three points, to 37%, and his disapproval rating ticked up one point, to 55%, in Quinnipiac University’s Aug. 21-25 poll of 1,220 registered voters (margin of error 3.4), compared to the group’s July survey.
