Trump's Disapproval Rating Is Highest It's Been This Term: Poll

It's steadily grown as voters express concerns with his use of executive power and deployment of the National Guard.

President Donald Trump is the most unpopular he’s been this term, according to a recent Washington Post/ABC News/Ipsos poll.

In the poll, which was conducted between October 24 to 28, 59 percent of U.S. adults said they disapproved of Trump’s handling of the presidency, while 41 percent approved. His disapproval hasn’t hit this level in The Post’s survey since January 2021, the publication reports.

Similarly, an NBC News poll conducted between October 24 to 28 found that 55 percent of registered voters disapproved of Trump’s leadership, while 43 percent approved. And according to a polling tracker from The New York Times, which averages results from different surveys, Trump’s disapproval rating has steadily climbed since his inauguration and is at 55 percent, a high for his second term.

The growing disapproval of Trump’s presidency comes as voters express significant concerns over his use of executive power, his deployment of the National Guard to different U.S. cities and his brutal immigration enforcement policies.

Thus far, Trump’s utilized executive actions to impose a range of policies including tariffs and directives to shutter the Department of Education. He’s also backed harrowing ICE raids and detention practices, while attempting to send troops to multiple places under the pretense of aiding federal agents.
