Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. President Donald Trump's approval rating is negative in the majority of states in America, as the president celebrates six months in office. According to polling compiled by Civiqs, which compiled 39,770 responses in 50 states, Trump's approval rating is negative in 31 states and positive in 19 states. Using this data, Newsweek has created a map to show the president's approval rating in every state. Why It Matters Trump's popularity has fluctuated in the first few months of his administration. Policies in particular that have triggered discontent include cuts overseen by the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), Trump's immigration policies and tariffs policy. There was also opposition to his strikes on Iran and the administration's handling of the Jeffrey Epstein case. Other polls have suggested the One Big Beautiful Bill has not been met with widespread support. Map shows Donald Trump's approval rating in each state after six months. Map shows Donald Trump's approval rating in each state after six months. Civiq With it being six months since Trump was inaugurated for the second time, it is a good time to look back at how his presidency is being received by voters. Sustained negative polling will impact his standing and the Republican Party more broadly in the November 2026 midterms. What To Know Trump's highest approval rating is in Wyoming, where he has a net approval rating of +35 percent. He is also favored in West Virginia (+31 percent), Idaho (+25 percent) and Oklahoma (+23 percent). In other states, his approval rating is underwater. Hawaii is the state where Trump commands the least support. His approval rating there is net -52 percent. In Vermont, it is at -46 percent. Trump is even seeing discontent in his home state of Florida, where his net approval rating is -3 percent. Overall, across all states, the Civiqs polling found that 55 percent disapprove of the president while 41 percent approve of him. Nationally, other polls suggest Trump is failing to court the support of the majority of voters. A Tyson Group poll, conducted June 25-26 among 1,027 U.S. adults, showed Trump at 45 percent approval and 51 percent disapproval overall. However, according to polling by YouGov/The Economist, the president has a net approval rating of +80 from conservatives. This is similar to the levels it was at during the start of his second term. He is also gaining more traction with Hispanic voters, a crucial demographic who traditionally support Democratic candidates, a poll has shown. What People Are Saying Richard Johnson, a senior lecturer in U.S. politics and policy at Queen Mary University of London in the U.K., previously told Newsweek: "Trump's approval rating has been pretty steady in the mid-40s since April. While this is technically net negative, it shows the president has a high floor of support. It's still a bit higher than Biden's ceiling after the end of his presidential honeymoon. From September 2021, Joe Biden's Gallup approval rating was never higher than 45 percent, with a low of 37 percent. In these polarized times, presidents should not expect poll numbers much above 50 percent but they also are unlikely to go as low as they did when, for example, George Bush sunk to approval ratings only in the mid-20s during his second term. Trump is far away from that." What Happens Next Trump's approval rating is likely to fluctuate in line with national and global events as well as the impact of his policies.

New polls show how US feels about Trump now tax cut bill has passed. What about Mississippi?

President Donald Trump's approval rating dipped in two of the three polls taken since his signature tax cut and spending bill passed in Congress on July 3. The final version of the bill, signed into law July 4, emerged after nearly four days of wrangling among Senate Republicans, with the expansive cuts to Medicaid, along with decreases in funding to Medicare. The bill also extends the 2017 tax cuts while expanding the budget for immigration enforcement. Gallup polling shows that Trump's approval ratings at the six-month mark in both of his terms are lower than any other modern president at the same time in their administrations, at 38% and 40% for each term, respectively. The average since John F. Kennedy in 1961 is 52%, according to the polling firm. Here's a look at the national polls and averages released since the passage of Trump's bill.

About 2% were unsure. Civiqs polling on Trump goes back to Sept. 12, 2015. The site highlights key points in history to show how Mississippi residents felt about him at that time. Other than a brief time between election day 2022 and when Trump was criminally indicted in March 2023, he's maintained a favorable approval rating in the state.

Trump approval ratings collapse across America as July Fourth protests erupt in fury over economy, immigration, and sweeping social cuts

New polling data revealed a starkly divided political landscape under President Donald Trump 's administration. A national survey conducted by Civiqs, based on 35,929 respondents, showed that Trump's approval rating is net positive in just 21 states, while 29 states report a net negative perception of the president. Wyoming showed the highest support with a net approval of +44 percent, followed by West Virginia at +36 percent. On the other end of the spectrum, Hawaii reported a staggering –47 percent net approval and Maryland followed with –41 percent. Broader national trend These state-level numbers reflect a broader national trend. A YouGov/Economist poll conducted between June 20 and 23 found that 40 percent of Americans approved of Trump's performance, while 54 percent disapproved, resulting in a net rating of –14. A separate poll by the Tyson Group, conducted June 25 to 26, found a slightly narrower gap, with 45 percent approving and 51 percent disapproving, for a net of –6. While the president still maintains a strong base in many Republican-leaning states, his overall national approval has struggled to break into positive territory. Live Events The timing of the data is particularly significant on July 4 . Traditionally, a unifying celebration of American independence was marked this year by political tension and widespread protest. Demonstrations took place across the country as part of the 'Free America Weekend,' with large gatherings in cities such as Los Angeles, Houston, Tampa Bay, and New York City. The protests were driven by opposition to recent White House decisions, including deep cuts to public programs under the administration's 'One Big Beautiful Bill' and new restrictions on immigration and reproductive health access. Economy - A key issue Experts believe the economy remains the key issue shaping Trump's approval. Scott Lucas, a professor of international politics at University College Dublin, noted that economic uncertainty and tariffs have played a central role in pushing approval ratings down in many states. Richard Johnson, a senior lecturer in US politics at Queen Mary University of London, offered a broader view, saying that while Trump's numbers remain net negative, they reflect a relatively high 'floor' of support in an era of intense political polarization, higher, he noted, than the ceiling of his predecessor, Joe Biden, after 2021. As protests continue and more are planned, such as the 'Good Trouble Lives On' events on July 17 in honor of civil rights icon John Lewis, Trump's approval ratings will remain sensitive to economic trends, foreign policy decisions, and civil unrest.

Trump's Approval Rating Hits Lowest Level in Weeks With Republican Pollster

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. The proportion of Americans who approve of President Donald Trump's performance in office has fallen to its lowest level since May 22, according to a new poll conducted by conservative-leaning pollster Rasmussen Reports. Newsweek has contacted the White House for comment via email on Saturday outside of regular office hours. Why It Matters Trump's approval rating is a key metric in recording how the American public views his presidency and is likely to have a significant impact on the November 2026 midterm elections where Democrats are hoping to overturn the Republican Party's narrow control over the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives. What To Know Rasmussen Reports is conducting daily opinion approval surveys for Trump, with 300 likely voters polled each day on what they think of the president's actions. These results are reported over a five-day rolling average basis, with the full 1,500 likely voter survey having a plus or minus 2.5 percent margin of error. No poll was conducted on Friday due to the Fourth of July holiday, with the most recent survey result being published on Thursday, July 3. In that poll, 49 percent of those surveyed approved of Trump's performance in office against 48 percent who disapproved. This gave Trump a net approval rating of +1, though the pollster noted that only 36 percent "strongly" approved while 41 percent "strongly" disapproved of Trump's performance. Trump's Thursday score of 49 percent was his lowest "total approval" figure from Rasmussen Reports' daily polling since May 22, when it also sat at 49 percent. The last time Trump's approval fell under this figure was on April 30, when it was 48 percent. Overall Trump's performance was worse on May 22 when 49 percent of voters also disapproved of his actions, giving him a net approval rating of zero. On April 30, 50 percent of voters disapproved of Trump's performance, giving him a net rating of -2. By contrast, Rasmussen Reports' polls found 52 percent of likely American voters approved of Trump's conduct on June 25 and 53 percent did on June 13. Rasmussen Reports has a track record of working for conservative politicians and causes and was described as "right-wing" and "more favorable for Republican candidates and issues" by The Washington Post, though the pollster insists its surveys are free and impartial. A recent survey by Civiqs, a rival pollster, found that out of 50 states sampled, Trump had a net positive approval rating in 21 and a net negative in 29. Civiqs received 35,929 responses for its survey. Nationally, a poll of 1,590 U.S. adults conducted by YouGov for The Economist between June 20 and 23 found Trump had a net approval rating of -14. A separate YouGov/Yahoo poll of 1,597 adults conducted over June 26 to 30 found Trump's net approval with Gen Z voters had fallen to -41 percentage points, a deterioration from -23 percentage points in May.

President Donald Trump speaking to journalists aboard Air Force One after departing Joint Base Andrews, Maryland on his way to Bedminster, New Jersey, on July 4. BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI/AFP/GETTY What People Are Saying Dafydd Townley, a U.S.-focused political scientist at the University of Portsmouth in the United Kingdom, told Newsweek: "The Big Beautiful Bill could prove costly to the Republican Party if the promised tax cut benefits are not felt universally. Concerns over Medicaid and the closure of rural hospitals are also unlikely to be welcomed but Republicans in close-fought districts." He added: "While there is likely to be some pushback against the incumbent party, the Republicans have a tiny majority in the House and will be determined to minimize this. If the House does flip to the Democrats in 2026, there will undoubtedly be two years of political stalemate as it's unlikely there will be any bipartisan collaboration, much like the last two years of the first Trump administration." What Happens Next? On Friday, Trump signed his "Big Beautiful Bill," a major taxation and spending package, into law. This includes tax cuts, increased funding for the military and border security and reduced spending on Medicare. It remains to be seen how this will impact the president's popularity.

Anything can impact a president's rating, such as legislation passed, actions and elections. According to ABC News, an approval rating doesn't just represent how well the administration is faring for the general public but could factor into the outcome of an upcoming election or how much they accomplish while in office. Presidential approval ratings were first conducted by the founder of the American Institute of Public Opinion, George Gallup, around 1935 to gauge public support for the president of the United States during their term. While Gallup has tracked presidential approval for 70 years, other organizations also conduct and release their own polls. Among them, Ipsos and Morning Consult. A historical analysis by Gallup shows Trump's approval ratings in June of his first years in office − both as the 45th and 47th presidents − are lower than any other modern president at the same time in their administrations. The average is 52%, according to the report. In the poll - conducted from June 2-19 - 40% approved of Trump's job performance. Here is how that compares to other presidents in June of their first year of their term, according to Gallup: Joe Biden (June 2021) - 56% approve Donald Trump (June 2017) - 38% approve Barack Obama (June 2009) - 61% approve George W.
