US President Donald Trump’s approval rating has dropped to a new low amid rising concerns over the US economy and the ongoing war with Iran, according to a new poll. A Reuters/Ipsos survey shows Trump’s approval rating fell to 36%, a four-point decline from the previous week and 11 points below his 47% approval at the start of his second term. His economic approval also seems to be declining, as Americans continue to deal with rising gas prices due to the ongoing conflict. The poll indicates that about 25% of respondents support how Trump is handling the cost of living crisis. Voter concerns include the long-term effects of the war, with 46% believing it will make the US less safe in the future, while 26% think it will make the nation safer. The ongoing conflict has led some prominent Trump allies, such as Tucker Carlson and Marjorie Taylor Greene, to criticize Trump’s actions.
