Trump’s Economic Management Faces Scrutiny as Disapproval Soars Amid Market Decline

Recent findings from a survey by CNN and SSRS reveal a growing dissatisfaction among Americans regarding Trump’s economic management. As market volatility escalates, investor sentiment is increasingly shaped by concerns over trade policies, with 56% of respondents disapproving of the administration’s economic strategies—marking the lowest approval rating since his initial tenure. Conversely, Trump’s approval rating for immigration policies has risen to 51%, largely attributed to enhanced enforcement measures, indicating a shift in public perception. Notably, opinions remain sharply divided on his approach to the federal budget, with approximately 48% approval juxtaposed against nearly equal disapproval. Furthermore, healthcare policy, foreign affairs, and perceptions of tariffs have garnered only 43%, 42%, and 39% approval ratings, respectively. Presently, Trump’s overall job approval stands at 45%, with a disapproval rate of 54%, mirroring figures observed in March 2017 and representing his peak approval during that term. (FXStreet)
