NBC Poll Delivers Birthday Punch as Trump Approval Slips to New Low
On his 80th birthday, NBC News released a poll showing Donald Trump’s approval at 39% among all adults and 42% among registered voters, a new low for his presidency. Independent voters largely disapprove, while Republicans remain more supportive (82% approve, 58% strongly) but trend downward from March; Trump also loses ground among young and Latino voters, though Democrats hold a slight edge in Congress (49% want Democrats in control vs. 44% for Republicans). Separately, his White House UFC event was delayed by severe weather, adding another distraction to the birthday coverage.
