CNN Poll: Americans doubt Trump is paying enough attention to the country’s most important problems
The survey also shows 65% say his policies hurt the economy and 67% say the Iran war is hurting the United States.
- On Wednesday, a CNN poll found 73% of Americans believe President Donald Trump ignores the country's most pressing problems, with his approval rating at 34%—matching his career low from January 6, 2021.
- Worsening public sentiment stems from the ongoing war in Iran and economic frustration, with 67% of Americans saying the conflict hurts the United States and only 28% approving of Trump's handling of the crisis.
- Beyond policy failures, disclosures revealed Trump earned over $2 billion in 2025, while recent surveys show just 25% approve of his inflation management and 21% approve of his gas price response.
- Political consequences loom as 42% of voters say they will cast ballots against Trump in midterms, compared to 22% for him, while Democrats maintain a competitive edge on the generic congressional ballot.
- Sustained disapproval reflects a significant decline since the U.S. launched attacks against Iran in February, as current polling mirrors the volatility Trump experienced in early 2021.
