President Donald Trump said his approval ratings are at their highest level yet, claiming Americans are supporting his administration because of its efforts to stop Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon. In a post on Truth Social, he said his ratings are even higher than on Election Day but did not cite a specific poll.
Recent surveys have shown mixed results. A Daily Mail/J.L. Partners poll placed Trump’s approval at 47%, while a McLaughlin & Associates poll found 50% approval among likely midterm voters. However, other national polls, including Reuters/Ipsos, reported lower approval ratings, reflecting differences in polling methods and the groups surveyed.
Trump continues to emphasize preventing Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons as a key foreign policy objective. With the 2026 midterm elections approaching, approval polls are expected to remain a major focus, though different surveys may produce different results depending on their methodology.
