Overview
- Rasmussen Reports’ likely-voter tracker on Tuesday logged an approval index of -23, with 41% approving and 57% disapproving in its latest daily read.
- CNN’s Poll of Polls now pegs Trump’s approval at 35% and disapproval at 64%, reflecting a mid‑30s pattern across recent ABC/Washington Post/Ipsos, Pew, Reuters/Ipsos, and AP‑NORC surveys.
- Some pollsters show higher marks, including Fox News at 42% approval and a new Forbes/HarrisX survey at 41%, underscoring how methods and samples can shift toplines.
- Analysts warn the downturn is weighing on Republicans heading into November, with Democrats outperforming in special elections and competitive Senate maps showing more openings.
- Erosion inside key blocs is visible, as I&I/TIPP records a GOP-unfavorable high of 18% among Republicans, YouGov finds 40% approval among Hispanics, and a Georgia poll shows strong approval among state Republicans slipping since last year.
