A new poll puts President Donald Trump's approval rating near record lows, noting an "erosion of support" among one of the president's most reliable groups of supporters: men.
The University of Massachusetts Amherst survey released Monday, Aug. 4, found public support for the Republican leader has dropped six percentage points since its April poll, giving Trump a meager 38% approval rating. With a corresponding 58% of poll respondents disapproving of his job performance, the figures mark one of the lowest ratings seen in recent months − and follow a string of major national polls with similarly low approval ratings.
A historical analysis by Gallup shows Trump's approval ratings in the first July of both of his terms are lower than those of any other modern president.
“Trump’s approval ratings, already historically low for a newly elected president, continue to sink with close to 6-in-10 Americans (58%) expressing disapproval of the job that Trump is doing in office," the UMass Amherst poll's director, Tatishe Nteta, said in an Aug. 4 press release. "While Trump remains a popular figure among Republicans and conservatives, Trump’s time in office is viewed more negatively across genders, generations, classes and races, with majorities of each of these groups disapproving of Trump’s performance."
The poll, conducted in partnership with YouGov July 25-30, interviewed 1,000 respondents nationally. The margin of error is 3.5%.
The survey found Trump's net approval rating dropped to -20 as he surpasses the six-month mark of his second term in office, with discontent focused especially on his handling of immigration, tariffs, inflation and the Jeffrey Epstein crisis.
