President Donald Trump’s approval rating falls to 33%, the lowest level of his presidency, according to a four-day Reuters/Ipsos poll released after it concluded on Monday. The poll shows that 64% of respondents disapprove of his performance in the White House.
Several outlets attribute the change to public concern about the United States’ Iran-related situation. The Reuters/Ipsos results report that 80% of Americans expect US involvement in a war with Iran to last a long time. This comes as an interim US-Iran ceasefire expires, and Trump says he will not seek an extension of the deal.
Across the articles, the main emphasis is on the steep approval drop and its record low during his second term. While the outlet summaries vary slightly in wording and framing, they consistently cite the same approval and disapproval figures and the same view among Americans that Iran-related involvement will be prolonged.
