Recent trump polls show President Donald Trump’s approval at 32% in a Reuters/Ipsos survey completed Sept. 21, marking a new low in that series of national polls.
The Reuters report said 32% of Americans approved of Trump’s job performance and that support among Republicans had slipped, with high living costs and concerns about the Iran war cited as factors in the poll’s analysis.
Two other national surveys released in September offered different snapshots. Marquette Law School’s national survey found 37% approval in early September, while an American Research Group poll reported a 29% approval reading later in the month, illustrating variation across pollsters.
Marquette’s poll was conducted Sept. 2–9 and reported a 63% disapproval; its release noted slipping support compared with July. The ARG result was reported by Newsweek as part of its September polling roundup.
Analysts and outlets covering the polls said the numbers reflect public unease about the economy and foreign policy; Reuters specifically connected the Reuters/Ipsos decline to worries about cost of living and the war with Iran.
Because different pollsters use distinct samples, question wording and field dates, individual trump polls can show a range of outcomes in the same month; aggregates and multi-poll averages are commonly used to smooth that variation.
For readers tracking the political and market implications, this cluster of September polls shows a downward trend in several major surveys even as exact levels vary by pollster.
