Fox News Poll Shows Rising Economic Concerns and Declining Trump Approval

A recent Fox News national survey highlights growing economic concerns among American voters and declining approval ratings for former President Donald Trump. The poll shows that 58% of respondents identify the cost of living as their top economic worry, up from 50% in February, surpassing other concerns like government spending, jobs, and tariffs. Overall, 77% of voters rate the economy poorly, marking a steady increase from previous months. Personal finances are also under pressure, with 51% saying their family’s finances have worsened over the past two years. Trump’s approval on handling the economy has declined to 29%, down from 34% in April. Disapproval of his performance has reached 71%, including growing disapproval among Republicans and non-MAGA Republicans. Inflation ratings are particularly low, with only 24% approving of his handling, and border security ratings have slipped to a near-even split among voters. The survey also finds that gas prices are a major concern, with 86% viewing them as a problem, largely attributed to domestic factors and the ongoing Iran war. While two-thirds of voters believe the U.S. is winning the conflict, opposition to continued military involvement has grown to 60%. Younger voters and non-MAGA Republicans show significant skepticism toward Trump’s policies, with many believing they could hurt the country in the long run. Overall approval of Trump’s job performance stands at 39%, with 61% disapproving, indicating a broad shift in voter sentiment amid economic pressures.
