· World · The Independent, Fortune
Public frustration over rising prices and economic policy has pushed President Donald Trump's approval rating on the cost of living down to 17 percent, according to an Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research poll. Nearly two-thirds of US adults blame Trump's policies, including tariffs and foreign conflicts, for stubbornly high everyday expenses rather than external factors. The survey reveals that approximately 70 percent of Americans feel his management of living costs has been worse than expected. Overall, only about 30 percent of Americans approve of his presidential performance ahead of upcoming midterm elections that will decide control of Congress.
