Republican support for Trump drops sharply in latest polls ahead of midterms

New polling shows Donald Trump’s approval among Republicans falling sharply, with notable declines among non-MAGA voters.

A series of fresh polls reveal Donald Trump’s support among Republican voters is eroding, with overall approval now in the high-70s percent range and a sharp drop in those who strongly approve. The decline is especially pronounced among Republicans who do not identify with the MAGA movement, where approval has fallen to just above half and strong approval has dropped to less than half. Other recent surveys echo this pattern, showing multi-point declines over short periods.

The shift contrasts with historically higher approval levels during Trump’s first term. Analysts suggest the downturn may be linked to voter dissatisfaction with the economy and the ongoing conflict in Iran, which has also affected consumer sentiment among Republicans.

Why it matters

Falling Republican enthusiasm for Trump could reshape the GOP’s prospects in the upcoming midterm elections.
