President Donald Trump's approval among rural Americans has fallen to its lowest level of his current term as rising fuel and food costs weigh on a key voting bloc that has long backed him.
Rural Approval Falls A Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted June 3-8 found Trump's approval rating among rural Americans dropped to 50%, down from 60% in February 2025.
Rural disapproval rose to 48% from 34% over the same period.
The decline comes as many rural voters express frustration over higher living costs, particularly gasoline and groceries.
Brian Rauch, a 42-year-old Air Force veteran from Montana who voted for Trump in the past three presidential elections, said rising expenses have affected his daily life.
