Trump's approval ratings hits an all-time low amid Iran war, high gas prices

Описание: Amid high gas prices and an unpopular war in Iran, a new NPR/PBS News/Marist poll out today finds President Trump at the lowest point in his presidency politically.⁠
⁠
Eight in 10 of the more than 1,300 respondents say the recent rise in gas prices is putting a strain on their household budget. The war in Iran has led directly to those prices surging — and most are blaming President Trump for the increase. As a result, the poll found Trump with just a 37% approval rating and 59% disapproving, his worst score in the poll of either term.⁠
⁠
His economic approval is down to 35%, and on his handling of Iran, it’s 33%. Democrats appear to be benefitting. When respondents were asked who they would vote for if congressional elections in their district were held today, they sided with Democrats by 10 points.⁠
