What it found was that Trump’s disapproval ratings were at 57 percent, led by voters who did not approve of him.
Just under one month later, along with a war in the Middle East and oil prices increasing as a result, the latest figures are in.
While Trump’s approval rating was relatively stable over at the start of the Iran war, Silver Bulletin reported that just two weeks ago, his approval rating was at -13.9.
But now, Trump has a net approval rating of -16.7… A record low.
That’s lower than Joe Biden’s approval rating of –11.7 after one year in Office.
The full figures include his handling of the economy (-21.3) and inflation (-32.7), as well as his overall disapproval rates being a second term high of 46.7 percent.

“Obviously, gas prices are a big factor,” Nate Silver wrote on X as the findings were published.
“But Trump has profound problems. There *are* signs of erosion among his base. Only 22 percent of Americans have a *strongly* favorable view of Trump. 2028 aspirants are starting to pull away from him. One wonders about the effect of his age, too.”
Similarly, Trump’s overall approval fell to 36 percent, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll last week.
The poll found that 46 percent of voters believe the Iran conflict makes the US less safe, while 26 percent of those who participated believe it will make America safer.
