Trump Records Lowest 100-Day Approval Ratings in 80 Years

Multiple major polls show that President Donald Trump has reached the lowest approval rating for any U.S. president at the 100-day mark in the past 70 to 80 years, with approval numbers ranging from 39% to 45% and disapproval consistently higher. These historic lows surpass even Trump's own previous record from his first term. Polls indicate strong public pessimism about the economy, with a majority blaming his policies and tariffs for worsening conditions and inflation. Despite the administration's claims of policy successes—such as tighter border control and energy reforms—public trust remains low, with only a small percentage expressing strong support for Trump. Some conservative commentators argue that media hostility and 'fake news' have contributed to negative perceptions, but the polling consensus highlights widespread and deepening disapproval. Analysts note that the traditional 'honeymoon' period for new presidents appears absent in Trump's case, marking a significant break from historical trends.
