  • A CNN analysis by Harry Enten finds Trump’s net rating on the economy at minus 32, the worst recorded for any president at this point in a term.
  • A Fox News poll reports voters now trust Democrats over Republicans on the economy, 52 percent to 48 percent, the first Democratic edge on this measure since 2010.
  • Key groups are breaking away, with independents at net minus 55 on his economic handling and Gen Z showing steep net negatives in Verasight’s April tracking.
