Trump's Approval Rating Hits New Low

About this episode

CNN data analyst Harry Enten reveals a stark reality: President Trumps approval rating has plummeted to a term-two low of minus eighteen net points, with independents giving him a dismal minus forty-five points, worse than Nixons Watergate era. The slide, fueled by events like Iran tensions, has been steady since January, now dipping below Bushs Iraq War-era ratings. Trumps team faces an uphill battle to reverse this trend.

On April 1st, CNN data analyst Harry Ensign just dropped a harsh reality check on President Trump's approval rating. It's hit a term, too low and minus 18 net points, signaling a tough road ahead with no quick rebound in sight. The slide is brutal among independents, down to minus 45 points. That's even worse than Nixon's minus 36, during the peak of Watergate, putting Trump an uncharted low territory for this stage. Voters aren't pinning it on one thing alone, but a pile-up of events like the ongoing tensions with Iran. Earlier this year, Trump sat at plus six net in January, but has been sliding steadily since. Fast forward through the months, minus three by April last year, minus seven nine months back, minus 10 in October 2025, minus 13. In January 2026, and now minus 18. Comparison stack up rough, too, dipping below George W. Bush's minus 37 amid the Iraq war. This downward grime keeps political watchers on edge, as Trump's team scrambles to shift the momentum before it digs in deeper.

That wraps entertainment and celebrity news today, brought to you with AI. I'm Cory with The Story.
