Trump's Net Economic Approval Plummets to Historic Low
About this episode
President Trumps net economic approval rating among independent voters has plummeted to a disastrous -55 points, a staggering 60-point drop since January 2025. This is the worst economic approval rating for any president this early in their term in over fifty years. Among all voters, his net rating is -32 points, with only 34% approving, a significant drop from the start of his second term. The economy, once a strong selling point, is now a major liability due to sticky inflation, high gas prices, and the Liberation Day tariffs. If these trends continue, Republicans could lose their House and Senate majorities in the midterms. Trumps economic performance is now his make-or-break issue.

On April 24, President Trump's net economic approval rating among independent voters has crashed to negative 55 points. That's a massive nearly 60 point drop since January 2025, when he was at a positive one point. CNN data analyst Harry Inton called these numbers downright atrocious, the worst for any president this early in their term in over 50 years. Among all voters, Trump's net rating sits at negative 32 points, with only 34% approving. That's down nearly 40 points from the start of his second term, when the economy was one of his strongest selling points from the 20, 24 election. Inton was straight up stunned on air, his eyes popping as he broke it down with colleague Caitlin Collins. He compared it to lows from Jimmy Carter and Joe Biden, who only hit negative 25 points at similar spots, but Trump's figures blow those away. Blame it on sticky inflation at 3.3%. As prices topping $4 a gallon tie to the war in Iran, and those liberation day, tariffs
that 55% of Americans see as a personal hit. If these trends hold through the midterms, Republicans could waive goodbye to their house and Senate majorities. Keep an eye on how Trump pivots, because the economy is his make or break issue right now. Pop culture, powered by AI, this is entertainment and celebrity news today.
