Trump's Second Term Approval Ratings Show Significant Polarization

In the early weeks of President Donald Trump's second term, his approval ratings have shown a mix of support and disapproval among various demographic groups. While he has seen improved approval among Black and Hispanic adults, overall national polling indicates a decline in his approval, with recent surveys showing approval ratings as low as 43% to 47%. A Yahoo News/YouGov poll reported that 41% of respondents believe his performance has worsened compared to expectations. Economic issues are notably dragging down his approval, with 47% disapproving of his handling of the economy, marking a record low for his current term. Despite some increases in approval among certain Republican demographics, most polls reflect a general trend of discontent towards his presidency, with many Americans feeling he is not addressing their most pressing concerns. As Trump continues to sign executive orders, his political strategy appears to be polarizing, contributing to a sharp divide in public opinion.
