Trump Approval Near Record Low as Voters Favor Democrats Ahead of Midterms
A Reuters Ipsos poll shows US President Donald Trump's approval rating remains near a record low at 32%, while voters prefer Democrats over Republicans by 46% to 38% in the generic congressional ballot ahead of the midterm elections. Rising living costs and recent fuel price increases are key voter concerns. Among independents, half said their vote opposes Trump, with only 13% supporting him. Although the Democratic lead narrowed slightly, Republicans face challenges retaining control of Congress.
