Cracks may be forming on the issue once believed to be Donald Trump’s greatest strength, according to a poll released Monday measuring the president’s approval rating.

About 4 in 10 U.S. adults approve of Trump’s job performance, according to the new Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll.

In every issue surveyed in the poll, ranging from immigration to managing the federal government to the war in Ukraine, Americans have a more unfavorable view toward Trump’s handling of it than those with a favorable opinion.

The poll showed Trump’s job approval the greatest on immigration — an issue the president connected with the American people on that helped him recapture the White House in 2024.

The survey found 49% of respondents strongly or somewhat approve of how Trump is handling immigration compared to 50% who strongly or somewhat disapprove of his immigration policies.

The economy, which along with immigration helped propel Trump back into the White House, is now one of Trump’s weakest issues, the poll found.

Just 40% of respondents strongly or somewhat approve of the president’s handling of the economy compared to 58% who strongly or somewhat disapprove.

Trump fated the worst on an issue an issue that ties into the economy: trade negotiations with other countries.

Just 38% of respondents strongly or somewhat approve of the president’s stance on that issue while 60% of those polled strongly or somewhat disapprove.

Trump’s numbers on the economy pale in comparison to how Americans used to view him.

During his first term, the economy was an issue on which Americans frequently gave Trump good marks.

In October 2020, just before he lost reelection, an AP-NORC poll found that about half of U.S. adults approved of Trump’s handling of the economy, putting the rating far above his performance on race relations and the COVID-19 pandemic.

Now, Trump’s stewardship of the economy is being put to the test again — and the AP-NORC poll isn’t the only sign that his threats of tariffs are making everyday Americans nervous.

Consumer confidence has been falling over the past few months. Trump has argued that tariffs would bring more jobs in the auto industry to the U.S. and narrow the budget deficit, but prices on imported cars could also rise steeply if some of the costs of the taxes are passed along to consumers.
