Donald Trump has officially started his term amid a challenging political landscape, marked by an incredibly low approval rating. Recent polls show Trump with an approval rating of just 34%, a stark contrast to previous incumbents. In comparison, President Biden began his tenure with a 57% approval rating while former President Barack Obama started at 67%. Trump’s situation seems particularly dire, with many political analysts describing the political climate as susceptible to immediate degradation. The American public’s disapproval resonates strongly against Trump’s recent policies and political maneuvers. CNN Political Analyst noted, ‘This polling is very much unlike what we saw 8 years ago.’ Furthermore, Trump faces backlash on multiple fronts – from foreign policy issues to domestic challenges, indicating the need for significant changes if he hopes to recuperate his standing. Fox News pointed out that prior to entering office, the Republican Party was already split regarding Trump’s support, raising concerns about his potential legislative maneuvers. The upcoming elections loom as an emotionally charged battleground, reminiscent of the divisions facing the country as a whole.
