Hey there! Have you ever wondered how people feel about their leaders? In the United States, President Donald Trump’s approval rating has gone down as he reaches 100 days in office.
What’s an approval rating? π€ It’s like a big survey where grown-ups say if they think the president is doing a good job or not.
According to new polls by ABC, The Washington Post, and a company called Ipsos, only 39 out of every 100 people think President Trump is doing a good job. That’s fewer people than earlier this year!
Even more interesting, only about 21 out of 100 people feel strongly that he’s doing well, while 44 out of 100 feel strongly that he’s not.
Why are people worried? π A lot of people are concerned about the economy, which means the way money is earned and spent in the country. About 72 out of 100 people think President Trump’s plans might cause problems, like a recession (that’s when the economy slows down a lot).
Also, many people think prices are going up because of new tariffs. Tariffs are taxes on goods coming into the country, which can make things more expensive to buy.
Another poll by CNN showed similar results. It seems that fewer people approve of President Trump’s work compared to earlier months.
Why does this matter? π Knowing how people feel about their leader helps us understand what’s happening in a country. It shows us that many Americans are concerned about jobs, prices, and their own money.
Thanks for reading! What do you think about all this? Feel free to share with your friends! π
