A cluster of late-August surveys shows President Donald Trump’s job-approval rating hovering just below a majority nationwide. Rasmussen Reports’ daily tracking poll and a separate week-long sample each put support at 49%, matching the 49% who disapprove. An RMG Research survey of 3,000 registered voters taken Aug. 13-21 reported an identical 49%–48% split. Several polls point to widening demographic divergences. InsiderAdvantage measured approval at 57% among voters aged 18-39, while Rasmussen’s full-week crosstabs found 56% approval among those 30-39 and 53% among adults 65 and older. An InsiderAdvantage follow-up cited by Benzinga said baby-boomer approval inched up to 40% in August after slipping to 38% in June. Regional results are more polarized. A University of California–Berkeley poll released Aug. 22 put Trump’s approval at 29% within California, underscoring the state’s longstanding resistance. By contrast, Morning Consult’s July survey in Iowa showed the president essentially break-even at 48% approval and 49% disapproval. Despite the public figures, Trump asserted on Truth Social that his support is “in the 60s and even 70s,” and accused major television networks of downplaying favourable numbers. No contemporary independent poll supports those higher estimates. Methodologies vary—from Rasmussen’s five-day rolling telephone and online average to RMG’s mixed-mode sampling—but the latest data collectively suggest a president holding steady at roughly break-even approval nationally while gaining ground among both younger voters and baby boomers.
