Opinion polling on the second Trump presidency

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This article summarizes the results of polls taken during the second presidency of Donald Trump which gather and analyze public opinion on his administration's performance and policies. At the time when Donald Trump began his second term, his approval rating was 47%,[3] the second lowest approval rating at the start of a presidential term in polling history, second only to his first term.

Trump's aggregated presidential approval ratings declined over the first year of his second term and remained consistently low overall.[1]
In a larger context, Trump's approval rating (Gallup polling) after the first year of his second term was the lowest of any president since before 1977.[2]

Throughout 2025 to 2026, Trump's approval rating has steadily declined to an average of 37 to 40%.[4][5] In August 2026, Trump was the second most unpopular president at this stage of his presidency in the history of polling going back to the 1940s (the worst being Richard Nixon just days before resigning the office.)[6]

The Pew Research Center's Spring 2025 Global Attitudes Survey was conducted January 8 to April 26, 2025, in a range of phone and in-person interviews among 28,333 people in 24 countries. The margins of error for each country average about 4 percentage points.[9]

A 2025 Pew Research Center study found that more than half in 19 of 24 countries surveyed said they lack confidence in Trump's leadership of world affairs, with views about Trump differing sharply along ideological and partisan lines.[10]
Among 24 surveyed countries, Trump's 2025 ratings trailed those of Joe Biden's 2024 ratings by an average of twelve percentage points in world affairs, though Trump fared better among right-wing populist parties in Europe.[11]
A 2026 survey of European respondents showed net negative views of Trump concerning world affairs.[12]
