Trump Approval Rises Among Millennials, Moderates in National Polls

President Donald Trump's approval ratings have shown recent increases across several key demographics according to multiple polls. Among millennials, his approval rating rose by 7 percentage points over a month, reaching 40%, possibly influenced by perceptions of economic stability and targeted outreach. Overall approval climbed to 44% in a September CBS News/YouGov poll, driven by gains among independents, moderates, and Republicans, while support among Democrats declined slightly. Immigration, deportation, and border policies remain the most important issues for many voters when evaluating Trump's administration, followed by the economy and government spending. Additionally, following Trump's summit with Russian President Vladimir Putin, an InsiderAdvantage poll recorded a near-record 54% approval rating, with notable support from white, Hispanic, and younger voters, although the summit ended without a formal agreement and drew criticism from Democrats. These shifts highlight a subtle but meaningful change in Trump's political standing as he navigates a polarized electorate ahead of upcoming elections.
