RumbleValidator · 2026-01-22T05:26:15+00:00

The latest polls show that despite the continued rise of the US stock market in early 2025, Trump's approval rating has plummeted to 37%, marking his lowest point in his second term. Support within the party has also dropped from 88% to 79%, mainly due to public dissatisfaction with tariff policies. Public trust in the Federal Reserve is higher, with 44% trusting its interest rate decisions, while only 18% trust the White House. Geopolitical uncertainties also influence public opinion, as the bull market's prosperity has not translated into political gains, with inflation pressures and diplomatic risks being the main driving factors.

【BlockBeats】The latest polling data reveals an interesting phenomenon: US stocks have continued to rise in early 2025, but Trump’s political support is rapidly declining. According to a joint survey by The Economist and YouGov, Trump’s current approval rating is only 37%, with an opposition rate of 57%, and a net support of -20%, marking his lowest point in his second term.

Even more concerning is the emergence of cracks within the Republican Party. Support within the party has plummeted from 88% to 79% in just one week, a significant drop. Public dissatisfaction is clearly directed at tariff policies. 69% of respondents directly stated that tariffs have increased their daily expenses, with rising prices being the biggest pain point. This stands in stark contrast to the stock market boom.

On the monetary policy front, public trust in the Federal Reserve is noticeably higher. 44% of voters trust Fed Chair Powell’s interest rate decisions, while only 18% trust the White House’s economic judgments, reflecting widespread market skepticism about administrative interference in monetary policy.

Geopolitical uncertainties are also dragging down public opinion. Whether it’s a tough stance on Greenland or military posturing regarding Venezuela, most voters oppose these actions. Analysts believe that the bull market has not translated into political gains, and inflation pressures along with diplomatic risks are becoming the core drivers behind the declining approval ratings.

The stock market went up, but the wallet got thinner—that's reality. The tariff policy is really impressive; support within the party dropped from 88% to 79%, what does that indicate? It shows that ordinary people are starting to vote with their feet.

The stock market is rising, but ordinary people's wallets are shrinking. This is outrageous. The issue of tariffs has really split the Republican Party, dropping from 88% to 79% in a week, shocking to see. The trust in Powell is actually more than twice that of the White House, indicating that people still have their doubts. 69% of people say tariffs are increasing daily expenses. This data doesn't lie; wallets will speak. Stock gains are causing public disillusionment—classic economic false prosperity, brother. Trump's net approval rating has dropped by 20%, showing that tariff policies are really hitting hard. The Federal Reserve's trust level is so high that it highlights some doubts about the White House's economic policies. Support dropping below 37% is still considered the lowest point; this start isn't very promising. The stock market is soaring, but people are worried about bills—magical realism. The Republican Party's support dropped from 88% to 79% in a week, backstabbing each other quickly, this division is happening fast.

The stock market rises while the White House falls, this contrast is really incredible haha Tariffs indeed hurt people's livelihoods, no wonder everyone in the party is shaking their heads Powell's trust level crushes the White House, data speaks for itself 37% approval rating, and it's only been a few days before collapsing like this? Within the Republican Party, a week drops 9 points, interesting Ordinary people really hate tariffs the most, their wallets will vote The Federal Reserve boosts confidence, the White House raises prices, it's a multiple-choice question Polls drop to a new low, indeed disappointing The stock market is self-indulgent, common folks are crying poverty, this is the current situation 79% support within the party is still bleeding, it will be even harder later

Stock market rises, people get poorer—that's pretty much the current situation haha Tariffs really drove people crazy, 69% say they can't afford to eat Intra-party conflicts within the Republican Party, now that's interesting, but it seems Trump still has hardcore supporters Is Powell more trusted than the White House? Laughing out loud, economists are more reliable than politicians US stocks are high, people are crying, can Web3 turn things around this time? The key is that -20% net support, it's hard to hold on
