A new CBS poll revealed bad information for President Donald Trump: 75 % of 2, 410 US people said Trump’s new tariffs would cause prices to rise quickly. Trump has put a stop to the Liberation Day taxes in place for all nations, with the exception of China, but the world market suffered a historic blow, and the original 10 % tariffs are still in place. 48 % said prices would be higher in the long run, compared to 22 % who said there would be no impact or they were unsure, and 30 % who said prices would fall.
The poll found that 49 % of Americans thought Trump’s policies were worse off than they were in March ( 42 % ).
According to CNN data guru Harry Enten, this is the worst poll Trump has received in his second term, and 54 % of respondents believe Trump is to blame for the economic downturn, compared to 21 % who still credit Biden.
According to Enten,” Donald Trump does try to blame Joe Biden,” which was effective a fortnight before, but since the trade conflict has erupted, it hasn’t worked.” ” Americans are no buying what Donald Trump is selling them,” he said.
He’s “underwater for the first time,” Enten said, citing a decline in Trump’s endorsement rating, which has fallen from + 6 in February to -6 this year. The pattern line is extremely important in this area, and Enten said,” Looks like the American people are turning against Donald Trump.”
Another poll, a TIPP Insights poll conducted for the League of American Workers, showed that 43 % of registered voters approve of the work that Trump is doing as president, compared to 50 % of those who disapprove.
Nate Gold on Donald Trump’s current approval rating
Nate Silver analyzed the results of the CBS poll and the TIPP surveys to determine whether Trump has hit a new small in his second term. According to the Magic Bulletin regular, Donald Trump begins the week with 45.5 percentage authorization and 50.9 percentage disapproval. That’s a fresh small for his second term in terms of online approval, Nate wrote on his report.
” Why the fall,” you ask? Trump has a lower approval score than he did before his tax announcements, according to pretty much every post-liberation time poll. Trump is 6 points below the previous CBS/YouGov surveys in terms of gross approval, which is a 6 point drop. Trump received a shield approval rating of -7 in today’s TIPP ballot. In their previous two elections, he sat at -1 and -5. -EMD, 4/14/25″, Nate concluded.
