Recent polling data throughout August 2025 presents a mixed picture of President Donald Trump's job approval ratings across the United States. Multiple polls conducted between mid and late August show approval ratings ranging from a high of 54% in some Insider Advantage surveys to lows around 43% in YouGov/Economist polls. Disapproval ratings generally range from 44% to 54%, with some variation depending on the polling organization and region. Notably, Trump’s approval rating in California has dropped to 29% according to a Berkeley poll. State-level polls indicate approval ratings of 50% in Georgia and Nevada, while Maryland shows a disapproval rate of 60%. Among younger voters aged 18-39, approval stands at 57%. Polls also reflect shifts in public opinion on specific issues such as immigration, foreign policy, the economy, tariffs, and inflation, with net approval ratings often negative on these topics. The generic ballot in several polls shows Democrats leading Republicans by margins ranging from 3 to 8 percentage points. Additionally, approval of Trump's meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin stands at 46% in the Economist/YouGov poll. Overall, the data illustrates fluctuating public sentiment toward Trump’s presidency with regional and demographic differences.
