A new national poll paints a much harsher picture of President Donald Trump’s standing than his team has been willing to admit. Behind the confident speeches and online claims of strength, the numbers show slipping public confidence, rising frustration, and an electorate worried that the country is off course.
The CNN/SSRS poll, conducted October 27–30 with 1,245 adults nationwide, shows Trump’s approval rating has fallen to 37%. Back in February, it was 47%. In less than a year, he’s lost ten points, bringing him near the lowest approval level of his presidency. Meanwhile, 63% of Americans disapprove of his performance, highlighting the growing gap between the White House’s message and public perception.
