Trump approval rating hits 33% amid Iran war and inflation

President Donald Trump’s approval rating has dropped to 33%, matching the lowest point of his presidency, according to a Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted in mid-August 2026. His disapproval rating has risen to 64%.

Key factors contributing to this decline include the ongoing military conflict in Iran and persistent economic pressures. The conflict has reportedly paralyzed one-fifth of global oil trade, contributing to elevated inflation, which stands at 3.4%. Public sentiment regarding the war is largely pessimistic, with 80% of Americans believing the involvement will be long-term.

Additionally, economic perceptions are shifting; for the first time in approximately a decade, more voters express a preference for Democrats to manage the economy (38%) over Republicans (35%). In Arkansas, a separate statewide poll shows Trump's disapproval at 53% compared to 46% approval.
