Voters are feeling sour about the economy and President Donald Trump’s handling of it in 2025, despite an upswing in positive feelings about the direction of the nation following his reelection. Although Trump’s approval rating equals his best-ever mark at 47%, a majority of voters still disapprove of his performance. His approval on the economy and handling of inflation and cost of living is also below 50%. The poll reflects a deeply divided America following Trump’s victory in 2024.
Republicans, buoyed by unified support for Trump and his agenda, see the U.S. heading in the right direction. However, views of the economy are at their lowest since 2014, with just 18% of voters rating it positively. Trump’s handling of key issues, such as immigration, fares better than his handling of the economy.
The Democratic Party faces record-low popularity, with just 27% of voters viewing them positively. Democratic voters are split on whether lawmakers should compromise with Trump to pass legislation or stick to their positions. Voters are split on which party they want to control Congress in the 2026 midterm elections.
Overall, the poll shows Trump’s continued strong support among Republicans and a growing base. While voters approve of his handling of some issues, concerns about the economy persist. The survey reflects a polarized political climate and uncertain outlook for the future.
