Trump's Approval Dips to Record Low in Latest Poll

A Reuters/Ipsos four-day online poll of 1,014 U.S. adults released April 28 shows President Trump’s job approval at 34%, the lowest of his current term and down from 36% in mid-April. Voters cited rising food and gas prices and the ongoing Iran conflict as reasons for disapproval. The margin of error is about 3 percentage points, and responses were largely collected before Saturday’s shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner. The White House defends his record, noting progress on jobs, inflation and housing, and the article notes his approval has fallen from 47% when he took office in January 2025.
