His average economic approval also hits a new low (-13), and his tariffs are underwater by 30 points
This is a quick post to provide a single location to revisit Donald Trump’s approval rating as we get new polling in the wake of his “Liberation Day” tariff announcement. This post and the graphics within will be updated. As of April 14, 2025, at 8:54 p.m. ET, this page is no longer being updated. Go here for the latest Trump approval average.
As of today, 12 pollsters have published 13 new polls of Trump’s approval rating that were conducted entirely after the tariff announcement on April 2 (see table below). In both of these polls, Trump’s approval has dipped compared to the pollsters’ previous surveys. The average change in Trump’s net approval — the difference between the percentage of the country that approves of him minus the percentage that disapproves — is -6.0 across these surveys.
