BlockBeats News, April 19th: According to the latest CNBC All-America Economic Survey, U.S. President Donald Trump's handling of issues such as tariffs, inflation, and government spending has triggered widespread dissatisfaction. His economic approval rating has also dropped to the lowest level since taking office.
The survey shows that the economic optimism brought by Trump's reelection has now dissipated. The percentage of Americans who now believe the economy will worsen has reached the highest level since 2023, and there has been a significant pessimistic shift in views towards the U.S. stock market.
This survey of 1,000 Americans across the U.S. shows that 44% approve of Trump's overall presidency, while 51% disapprove, a slight improvement from his final approval rating when leaving office in 2020. However, in terms of the economy, the survey indicates that only 43% approve of his performance, while 55% disapprove. This marks the first time in CNBC's polls that Trump, as president, has a net negative economic approval rating.
