President Donald Trump's approval rating has dropped to a new low in a recent American Research Group poll, with just 30% of Americans approving of his job performance as the 2026 midterm elections approach. The survey, conducted June 16"20 among 1,100 respondents (plus or minus 3 percentage points), found 66% disapprove of Trump, the highest disapproval and lowest approval ever recorded by the pollster during either of his presidencies.

Americans have also continued to sour on Trump's economy. According to the newest poll, only 26% of Americans approve of Trump's handling of the economy, while 70% disapproved.

Earlier this month, Trump brushed off concerns over the sharp increase in consumer prices across the United States, saying, "I love the inflation."

His comments were in response to a question about the Labor Department's latest consumer price index, which found prices were up 4.2% in May over the previous year. It was the first time inflation climbed above 4% since 2023, marking the largest increase in three years.

"No, I love it. The numbers were great. You know what I really love? I love the inflation. You know why?" Trump said on June 10. "Because as soon as this war is over ' you know, I can say it now, something you didn't know." (WTF?)

"It's the economy, stupid"
