Trump Gets Humiliating Report Card Before State of the Union [View all]

While the president doubles down on tariffs, his approval ratings are tanking.

President Donald Trump faces a 60 percent disapproval rating, his lowest since the immediate aftermath of Jan. 6, as he prepares for Tuesday’s State of the Union. A new poll from Washington Post-ABC News-Ipsos published Sunday found that of that figure, 47 percent strongly disapprove of the 79-year-old president.

Most voters, 65 percent, believe Trump has overstepped his authority by signing a flurry of questionable executive orders in his first year. He is slipping in confidence on issues including his use of military force in other countries, his handling of the Epstein files, and ICE’s immigration raid tactics.

Inflation is the biggest issue that voters have with Trump, with 65 percent disapproving. Tariffs follow closely behind, with 64% of people disapproving of the president’s signature economic policy.
