Trump's approval rating has fallen to its lowest level since his return.


According to a six-day survey, the public support rating of U.S. President Donald Trump has dropped to its lowest level since his return to the White House. Only 42% of Americans view his performance positively. This is one percentage point lower than during the previous survey and five points lower than on inauguration day, January 20.
At the beginning of his new presidential term, Trump frequently issued executive orders that significantly expanded his powers, particularly in controlling government agencies, universities, and law firms. These actions have raised concerns among the public.
57% of respondents expressed a negative opinion about cutting funding to universities due to the conflicts between the president and the policies of these educational institutions. 66% of those surveyed opposed the cancellation of 'inappropriate ideology' at the Smithsonian Institution.
The president also criticized higher education institutions for their inability to combat antisemitism and suspended federal funding, including to Harvard.
Most respondents (59%) believe that the U.S. is losing credibility on the international stage due to Trump's foreign policy and violations of the rule of law. 83% of respondents believe that the president should adhere to the decisions of the federal court, regardless of his personal views.
Three-quarters of Americans believe that Trump should not run for a third term according to the U.S. Constitution.
Despite the decline in ratings, Trump still has higher scores than his predecessor Joe Biden, Reuters reports.
According to new sociological studies, Trump's actions are supported by local politicians in various countries, from Mexico to Ukraine. Even French President Emmanuel Macron, who has faced criticism lately, has seen his popularity rise after American threats regarding the imposition of trade tariffs on Europe.
