President Trump's Approval Rating Hits an All-Time Low
According to a new poll conducted by the American Research Group, President Donald Trump has reached his lowest-ever approval rating in his second term, standing at 35 percent among the public. This marks a significant downward slide in Trump's popularity, which has been steadily declining over time.
The survey of 1,100 adults nationwide found that only 19 percent of Americans believe that Trump's handling of the economy will improve in a year's time, while 53 percent expect it to worsen. The remaining 21 percent anticipate no change.
Interestingly, among Republicans, Trump's approval rating stands at an impressive 75 percent, with a disapproval rating of just 24 percent. In contrast, Democrats overwhelmingly reject Trump's performance, with 1 percent approving and 98 percent disapproving.
This latest poll is not an isolated incident, as several recent surveys have painted a similar picture. Trump has been struggling to regain public confidence on key issues, including the economy, which he campaigned on improving during his presidency.
Trump has repeatedly dismissed polls that show him with low approval ratings, calling them "rigged" and suggesting they should be investigated for "election fraud." However, historians point out that these underestimations are not unique to Trump and can occur when people most likely to take part in polls also tend to vote for Democratic candidates.
White House spokesperson Davis R. Ingle defended the president's performance, stating that he has made historic progress both domestically and internationally and remains a dominant figure in American politics.

. 35% approval rating is pretty low for any president, let alone one who's been in office for a while. It seems like people are really losing confidence in Trump's ability to handle key issues like the economy 
. The fact that only 19% think his economic policies will improve in a year's time is just staggering 
. And on top of that, Democrats and most Americans (who aren't Republicans) are just not buying what he's selling 
. It'll be interesting to see how this plays out in the next election 
. Maybe Trump can turn it around or maybe his supporters will stick by him no matter what 
.
But for everyone else, especially Democrats, it's been a long time coming. They've been saying it for years that Trump is a disaster and now they're finally right.
.
. I wish there was more bipartisan support for him, but it seems like Trump has dug himself into this hole and can't escape 
.
. Will he try to turn things around, or will these low approval ratings be the nail in the coffin? Only time will tell 
.
. But seriously, 35 percent approval rating? That's like me showing up to the party with last week's leftovers and expecting everyone to be impressed 
. And honestly, who needs a 75% approval rating from Republicans when you've got 98% of Democrats hating your guts 
. But hey, at least he's consistent in being... Trumpy? 
I mean, I get it, polls can be wrong, but this is just ridiculous. And the fact that Republicans still love him despite all his controversies is just mind-blowing...or should I say, not-so-mind-blowing 
and honestly, who can blame them? The way he's handled the economy is just straight up disaster 
. I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens next year...or if anyone will actually believe him when he says polls are "rigged" 
.
35% approval rating? That's not a bad number for someone who's still trying to get his second term done without totally embarrassing himself 
.
. On the other hand, it's a no-brainer for Democrats who've been vocal about their discontent with him from day one 
I'm not surprised to see more people expecting the economy to get worse under him, though... remember when he campaigned on creating jobs and stuff? 
.
. Meanwhile, historians are keeping it real and saying that underestimations happen when you're a polarizing figure like Trump 
. Time for the president to step up his game or risk losing even more ground 
. I'm not surprised to see Republicans still supporting him, but it's interesting that Democrats have turned on him so hard 
. I do find it a bit rich that White House spokesperson Davis R. Ingle is defending his performance without acknowledging the elephant in the room: Trump's actual track record 
! 35 percent? That's basically saying most Americans think he's a total disaster. And you know what the funniest part is? The Republicans are still blind to it, they're so invested in the Trump train 
. Meanwhile, Democrats are seeing right through him, like "Hey, we told you so!"
