Trump’s Job Approval Slips Among Republicans
- Occam tracks sentiment toward Donald Trump through multiple lenses, including traditional favorability and approval of how he’s handling his job as President.
- While Trump’s net favorability among Republicans remains near all-time highs (data available upon request), his job approval rating has declined significantly among the same group (see chart below).
- As someone highly attuned to how voters perceive his performance, Trump may place greater weight on job approval than favorability—especially as he pursues a hardline stance on tariffs.
- In a prior Chart of the Week (link here), we also noted a rise in Republican concern about a potential recession—suggesting broader economic anxiety may be influencing attitudes.
- Occam’s real-time data surfaces shifts in political sentiment faster than traditional indicators. Subscribe today to stay ahead of the curve.
