Trump's Approval Ratings Plummet Amid Tariff Turmoil and Immigration Controversies
As President Donald Trump marks the 100th day of his second term, a series of polls indicate a notable decline in public approval. Once buoyed by promises of economic revitalization and stringent immigration control, the administration now faces skepticism from a significant portion of the American populace.
Economic Policies Under Scrutiny
Central to the waning approval is the administration's aggressive tariff strategy. Intended to protect domestic industries, these tariffs have instead sparked fears of a trade war and potential recession. A Reuters/Ipsos poll reveals that 73% of Americans anticipate a surge in prices due to the tariffs, with 57% opposing the policy outright. Economic experts have criticized the administration's approach, noting that the tariff calculations lack a solid empirical foundation and may have been influenced by oversimplified models.
