Trump's Approval Rating Drops to 34%: Economy and Iran War Criticism High

President Donald Trump's approval rating has dropped to 34%, according to a new CNN poll, matching the low recorded after the Jan. 6 Capitol riots in 2021. The survey found 65% believe Trump's policies hurt the economy and 67% say the Iran war is hurting the U.S. Mixed results emerged on Trump's Washington renovations: 88% of Democrats and 62% of Republicans disapproved, while 44% approved or were indifferent. Disclosures revealed Trump earned over $2 billion in 2025, with 85% of Democrats and 62% of independents disapproving, while Republicans were split (20% disapproved, 15% approved, 65% indifferent). Trump's approval rating now mirrors former President Joe Biden's 38% in 2022. How will markets react to this shift?
