President Donald Trump's low approval ratings are "concerning," a polling expert has said. Speaking on the Politics War Room podcast with political strategist James Carville and journalist Al Hunt, Alexander Theodoridis, associate professor of political science at the University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMass Amherst) reacted to recent polling about the President and said Trump was facing "low and concerning approval numbers" Maintaining broad support will be of key importance when voters head to the midterm elections in November 2026, particularly in swing states where every vote matters. UMass Amherst, released a poll this week which found that Trump has an overall approval rating of net -20 points. This is six points lower than the pollster's April survey. Meanwhile, other polls have also painted a concerning picture. According to a YouGov polling for U.K. newspaper The Times, the proportion of people who disapprove of Trump's job performance has increased from 52 percent in April to 57 percent in July. Newsweek analysis also revealed that Trump's approval rating is positive in 18 of the states he won in the 2024 election, and negative in 13. "When polls move in the negative direction it suggests the public is losing confidence in the President to make the right decisions in their best interests. Presidents historically have read this has a good reason to change direction and respond to public sentiments. This is one of the levers of democracy."

I wouldn't expect any other opinions from Carvilles panel. He lives to criticize Trump. As for your list, it's the one you always claim whenever anyone suggest the left is full of BS. Clearly you don't believe in analyzing anything the left has f'd up over and over. BTW. Trump Russia collusion and Hunter laptop are Russian Disinformation are just two clear examples of "FAKE NEWS" and therefore "Leftist propaganda" based upon "Hatred of Trump". Naturally the lefties don't want to consider any comparisons of the deplorable Biden administration so they result to the childish claims you presented. Oh, and I'm rubber and you're glue, everything you say bounces off me and sticks to you.
 
From "MadMan".
Conservatism IS a social disease.

If that's true Liberalism is a death sentence.

Trump is currently underwater in polling with virtually every American demographic.

Now he has agreed to host an indicted War Criminal - Vladimir Puitin - on US soil.

Trump to Meet Putin in Alaska Next Friday for Ukraine Peace Talks

Trump says a Ukraine ceasefire deal is coming – along with a Putin summit at the end of next week – as his Aug. 8 deadline expires without meaningful progress towards peace from the Kremlin.

The only polling that really matters is the election. Last 20 years of politics should have taught you that much.
 
Despite what Trump may wish, I just don't see the Norwegian Nobel Committee awarding Trump its Peace Prize for 2025.

They usually avoid authoritarian thugs and the betrayer of allies. Trump is pretty much uniformly hated in Europe.

Is that why the Texas Republicans are gerrymandering in mid-decade?

Methinks they are also poll watching.

Par for the course with Trump... hosting criminals.
 
I'm pretty sure you realize the Nobel committee is notoriiously liberal. I mean they gave Obama the prize simply in hopes he'd do something.
Obama became the first U.S. president to be honored with the award in his initial year of presidency (at eight and a half months, following a nomination that occurred less than two weeks into his term). Was it that he managed to get elected? Or maybe something more liberal?
