Trump disapproval rating reaches record high in new poll
President Trump's disapproval rating has reached 62% according to a Post-ABC-Ipsos poll, the highest of his two terms, while his approval rating stands at 37%. The decline is attributed to concerns over cost of living, inflation, and economic issues, as well as his handling of the Iran situation. The poll was released as midterm elections approach in six months.
