CNBC's latest economic poll shows that American public confidence in the economy has declined due to government shutdowns and rising inflation pressures, leading to a significant drop in Trump's economic approval ratings. The survey found that only 42% of respondents approved of his economic performance, while 55% disapproved, resulting in a net support rate of -13%, the lowest during his two terms. Overall approval also dropped to 44%, while disapproval rose to 52%. The survey found that 53% of respondents blamed the shutdown on the president and Republican Congress members, while only 37% pointed to Democrats. Meanwhile, Trump's approval rating on inflation and cost of living issues fell to 34%, a new low for his second term; support for his tariff policy also dropped to 41%. Analysts noted that dissatisfaction among independent voters has driven the overall decline in public opinion. Although Trump maintains a positive evaluation on southern border policies (+5), trust in him on economic, employment, and price issues has clearly weakened. About three-quarters of Americans believe prices are still "rising sharply," while only 32% expect the economy to improve next year, reflecting the public's widespread concerns about inflation and the impact of the shutdown.
