Trump’s net approval rating falls to an all-time low, with more than 60% of voters pessimistic about the economic outlook.

CNBC’s latest “All-American Economic Survey” reveals that U.S. public economic confidence has plummeted to its lowest level since the post-pandemic era, with a deep sense of frustration spreading among voters. The data shows that as many as 61% of respondents hold a pessimistic outlook on current and future economic conditions, marking the highest such share since late 2023. In comparison, only 25% remain optimistic. This sentiment is driven by a widespread “lifestyle downgrade” being experienced by ordinary citizens. Furthermore, Trump’s overall approval rating stands at just 40%, while his disapproval rate hits 59%. For economic governance, his disapproval rate reaches 60%, pushing his net approval rating to -22%—the worst performance of his entire political career.
