What happened, for context
Two separate approval polls released in late September 2025 show President Trump's approval ratings at historic lows. A Reuters/Ipsos poll found 32% overall approval, the lowest of his career, with Republican support dropping to 73% from 82% a week prior. A separate American Research Group poll reported 29% approval. Both polls identified cost of living and the Iran war as key drivers of dissatisfaction.
