Trump's Approval Rating Falls to 33% Amid Concerns Over Prolonged Iran Conflict
President Donald Trump's approval rating has dropped to 33%, the lowest of his presidency, according to a Reuters Ipsos poll. The survey found 64% of Americans disapprove of his performance amid concerns that the U.S. conflict with Iran will continue for an extended period. While Trump defended higher gas prices as necessary to prevent Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, many voters worry about the economic impact ahead of the November midterm elections. The poll showed broad bipartisan expectation of a prolonged conflict.
