Voters are feeling sour about the economy and President Donald Trump’s handling of it in 2025. However, Trump’s approval rating is at its best ever at 47%, with a majority still disapproving of his performance. The nation is seen as heading in the right direction for the first time since 2004, although many still believe the country is on the wrong track.
Democrats are increasingly dissatisfied with the economy since Trump’s re-election, with only 18% rating it positively. Trump is facing criticism for his handling of inflation, trade, and cost of living, with a majority of voters disapproving. He is also dealing with questions about whether he is focused enough on addressing core issues like costs.
While Trump’s approval among Republicans is high, he is facing challenges with independents and women. His immigration policies are viewed favorably, but voters are less satisfied with his handling of foreign policy and the economy.
Trump’s efforts to streamline government and cut spending with the Department of Government Efficiency have mixed reviews from voters. Billionaire Trump adviser Elon Musk and his role in the program are viewed unfavorably by many. The Democratic Party is at a historic low in favorability, while voters are split on which party they want to control Congress in the 2026 midterms.
Overall, America remains deeply divided following Trump’s 2024 victory, with the future political landscape dependent on how issues like the economy and dissatisfaction with Trump’s performance evolve.
