USA: Where Donald Trump Stands in Polls at Home - Trump's Approval Ratings Steady at 40% Since Inauguration, Despite 2028 Run Hint
Donald Trump's approval ratings have shown a consistent pattern since his inauguration. Despite an initial drop, they have since stabilized, remaining closely matched with disapproval ratings throughout his presidency. Meanwhile, Trump has hinted at a potential 2028 run, despite constitutional barriers.
The New York Times' regular polling average shows Trump's approval ratings fluctuating around the 40% mark since his inauguration. This stability is unusual, as approval ratings typically rise and fall more significantly over a presidency.
Republican pollster Frank Luntz acknowledged this decline but noted that Trump's overall direction was still viewed positively by many Americans. However, political scientist Jack A. Goldstone suggested that some Americans resent Trump for not fulfilling his promise to lower consumer prices through tariffs.
Trump's approval ratings have remained relatively stable throughout his presidency, with approval and disapproval ratings closely matched. While he has hinted at a potential 2028 run, the U.S. Constitution bars him from seeking reelection, a fact he acknowledges as 'regrettable'. Top Republican allies confirm there is no legal path for a third term due to the 22nd Amendment.
