Poll: Trump's approval rating falls to new low amid mass deportation raids
As mass deportation raids by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) continue to spark protest and split public sentiment, President Trump's approval rating has slipped to a new low in the latest Yahoo/YouGov poll. A survey of 1,597 U.S. adults, which was conducted from June 26 to June 30, finds that just 40% now approve of how Trump is handling his job as president, down from 44% in March. Meanwhile, a full 56% of Americans — up from 50% in March — currently disapprove of Trump's performance. That's a net swing of 10 percentage points away from the president over the last three months. At this point in Trump's first term, his disapproval rating was 13 points higher than his approval rating, according to YouGov data. Today, it's 16 points higher. In comparison, former presidents Barack Obama (+14) and Joe Biden (+7) both enjoyed positive approval ratings halfway through their first year in office. Immigration has long been an area of relative strength for Trump. Before last November's election, 48% of Americans predicted he would do a better job on the issue than former Vice President Kamala Harris, his Democratic rival; just 36% thought Harris would do better. And even in March, after a couple of months in office, more Americans approved (48%) than disapproved (44%) of how Trump was actually handling immigration as president — in contrast to nearly every other issue. But that's no longer the case. Throughout 2025, Trump's disapproval rating on immigration has steadily risen — to 46% in April, then 48% in May — before jumping to 52% in June, amid the recent ICE raids. At the same time, the president's approval rating on immigration has fallen to 44%. In other words, what was a net positive issue for him (+4 points in March) is now a net negative (-8). Immigration isn't the only area where Trump has lost ground over the last month. Disapproval of how he's handling the cost of living (up from 59% to 63%) and trade and tariffs (from 57% to 60%) has also shot up. But the new Yahoo/YouGov poll suggests that ICE's ongoing crackdown may be having a bigger effect on the public. With workplace raids and 'roving patrols,' ICE has dramatically ramped up its efforts to apprehend and deport undocumented immigrants in recent weeks throughout major cities such as Los Angeles, Chicago and Seattle. The Trump administration claims its agents are targeting 'the worst of the worst — including gang members, murderers and rapists' who have 'reigned terror' on American communities. The Department of Homeland Security frequently puts out press releases publicizing the capture of these 'heinous criminals.' But on-the-ground reporting has revealed that ICE is also sweeping up otherwise law-abiding immigrants — and even some U.S. citizens — as it strives to meet the administration's new quota of 3,000 arrests a day, up from 1,000 previously, and kick-start what Trump has described as 'the largest domestic deportation operation in American history.' This shift has not proven to be popular, according to the Yahoo/YouGov survey. Far more Americans now say they disapprove (50%) than approve (36%) of the "large-scale deportation raids in Los Angeles and other cities," for instance. Among Latino Americans (who voted for Trump last November in record numbers) that gap is bigger: 62% disapprove to 19% approve. Even independents (who tend to swing elections one way or the other) disapprove (57%) rather than approve (32%) of Trump's ICE raids by a wide margin. Overall, a majority of Americans (51%) now think Trump has gone too far in "arresting and deporting immigrants" — a number that's ticked up 4 points since April. Fewer say his approach has been about right (26%) or that he hasn't gone far enough (15%). A full 55% of independents think Trump has gone too far. Public opinion appears to turn on who Trump is targeting for deportation. According to the Wall Street Journal, top White House aide Stephen Miller — the architect of Trump's immigration agenda — held a testy meeting in May at ICE headquarters, where he demanded that officers do 'what they needed to do' to make more arrests, including rounding up noncriminals in public places. Miller told agents they 'didn't need to develop target lists of immigrants suspected of being in the U.S. illegally, a long-standing practice,' the Journal reported. 'Instead, he directed them to target Home Depot, where day laborers typically gather for hire, or 7-Eleven convenience stores. Miller bet that he and a handful of agents could go out on the streets of Washington, D.C., and arrest 30 people right away.' When asked to choose which immigration approach they prefer, however, just a quarter of Americans (25%) say the federal government should follow Miller's blueprint and "round up and deport as many undocumented immigrants as possible, regardless of whether they've committed other crimes." Far more (61%) want to "deport undocumented immigrants who have committed crimes since arriving in the U.S., but create a pathway to citizenship for those who have otherwise obeyed the law." As a result, a greater number of Americans now think ICE is deporting "mostly the wrong people" (40%) rather than 'mostly the right people' (37%). Negative sentiment about arrests and deportations has tarnished ICE's image as well. Most Americans now see the agency unfavorably (52%) rather than favorably (39%), and the number who view it very unfavorably (40%) is nearly twice as large as the number who view it very favorably (23%). Reflecting this backlash, ICE gets overwhelmingly negative ratings from Democrats (8% favorable, 85% unfavorable), Latino-Americans (25% favorable, 67% unfavorable), African-Americans (11% favorable, 63% unfavorable) and adults between the ages of 18 and 29 (28% favorable, 61% unfavorable). Among white Americans, however, more see ICE favorably (48%) than unfavorably (45%). As for the protests against recent ICE raids by people in Los Angeles and elsewhere, more Americans approve (47%) than disapprove (40%). But that gap is smaller than the one between those who disapprove (again, 50%) and approve (36%) of the raids themselves, suggesting at least some Americans think the protests went too far. In line with that theory, a majority say the protests were either 'mostly violent' (26%) or 'about equally peaceful and violent' (28%) rather than 'mostly peaceful' (37%). Either way, Trump's response to the protests — sending 'nearly 5,000 armed troops to the city against the objections of state and local officials" — is just as unpopular as the raids themselves, with 50% of Americans saying they disapprove and just 38% saying they approve. __________________ The Yahoo News survey was conducted by YouGov using a nationally representative sample of 1,597 U.S. adults interviewed online from June 26 to 30, 2025. The sample was weighted according to gender, age, race, education, 2024 election turnout and presidential vote, party identification and current voter registration status. Demographic weighting targets come from the 2019 American Community Survey. Party identification is weighted to the estimated distribution at the time of the election (31% Democratic, 32% Republican). Respondents were selected from YouGov's opt-in panel to be representative of all U.S. adults. The margin of error is approximately 3.2%.

Tense meetings as rebel Republicans delay tax bill under pressure from Trump
Republican leaders in the US Congress delayed a key vote for hours on President Donald Trump's signature tax and spending bill on Wednesday as they scrambled to win over a group of rebels threatening to torpedo the centrepiece of the president's domestic agenda. Trump is seeking final approval in the House of Representatives for his Senate-passed 'One Big Beautiful Bill' - but faces opposition on all sides of his fractious party over provisions set to balloon the national debt while launching a historic assault on the social safety net. House Speaker Mike Johnson told lawmakers to return to their offices, holding open a series of afternoon procedural votes required before final approval for more than three hours after it was first called - with no sign of the stalemate breaking. Meanwhile, his lieutenants huddled in tense meetings with holdouts behind the scenes. 'We're going to get there tonight. We're working on it and very, very positive about our progress,' Johnson told reporters at the Capitol, according to Politico. Originally approved by the House in May, the bill squeezed through the Senate on Tuesday by a solitary vote but had to return to the lower chamber on Wednesday for a rubber stamp of the Senate's revisions. 'This bill is President Trump's agenda, and we are making it law,' Johnson said in a determined statement, projecting confidence that Republicans were 'ready to finish the job'. The package honours many of Trump's campaign promises, boosting military spending, funding a mass migrant deportation drive and committing $4.5 trillion to extend his first-term tax relief. But it is expected to pile an extra $3.4 trillion over a decade onto the country's fast-growing deficits, while forcing through the largest cuts to the Medicaid health insurance programme since its 1960s launch. Fiscal hawks in the House, meanwhile, are chafing over spending cuts that they say fall short of what they were promised by hundreds of billions of dollars. Johnson has to negotiate incredibly tight margins, and can likely only lose three lawmakers among more than two dozen who have declared themselves open to rejecting the bill. Lawmakers were hoping to return from recess early on Wednesday to begin voting straight away, although they have a cushion of two days before Trump's self-imposed 4 July deadline. The 887-page text only passed in the Senate after a flurry of tweaks that pulled the House-passed text further to the right. Republicans lost one conservative who was angry about adding to the country's $37 trillion debt burden and two moderates worried about almost $1 trillion in healthcare cuts. Some estimates put the total number of recipients set to lose their health insurance at 17 million, while scores of rural hospitals are expected to close. Meanwhile changes to federal nutrition assistance are set to strip millions of the poorest Americans of their access to the programme. Johnson will be banking on Trump leaning on waverers, as he has in the past to turn around contentious House votes that were headed for failure. The president has spent weeks cajoling Republicans torn between angering welfare recipients at home and incurring his wrath. Trump pressured House Republicans to get the bill over the line in a private White House meeting with several holdouts on Wednesday. 'Our Country will make a fortune this year, more than any of our competitors, but only if the Big, Beautiful Bill is PASSED!' he said in a Truth Social post. House Democrats have signalled that they plan to campaign on the bill to flip the chamber in the 2026 midterm elections, pointing to analyses showing that it represents a historic redistribution of wealth from the poorest Americans to the richest. 'Shame on Senate Republicans for passing this disgusting abomination,' House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries told reporters.

Watches of Switzerland Warns US Tariffs to Hit Margin This Year
Watches of Switzerland Group Plc 's profit margin will be hit by US import tariffs this year, as watchmakers raise prices and demand resellers absorb some of the pain in the key market. The UK-based luxury watch retailer expects its margin on earnings before interest and taxes to slip by as much as 100 basis points compared with the previous 12 months. That guidance also assumes the US maintains tariffs at 10% after President Donald Trump's July 9 deadline to conclude new trade deals.
