Donald Trump on the Brink: US President Experiences Collapse - Can He Recover?

Donald Trump on the Brink: US President Experiences Collapse - Can He Recover? fka/news.de • 9 hrs. • 2 mins read Donald Trump has suffered a veritable collapse in his approval ratings. Current polls on US President Donald Trump currently speak a clear language: Americans are dissatisfied with their president. Yet it was only a few months ago that Donald Trump convincingly won the election against Kamala Harris and was sworn in as President of the United States for the second time in January. Donald Trump Completely Crashed But the decisions Donald Trump has made since then have met with rejection by a large portion of the population. For example, many US citizens disagree with the US President's aggressive tariff policy, which is clearly reflected in Trump's approval ratings. US President Donald Trump Suffers a Collapse In a recent poll conducted by the polling institute Civiqs between January 20 and May 8, the Republican has once again completely collapsed. One could even go so far as to say that Donald Trump has suffered a complete collapse. The US portal "Newsweek" is currently reporting on this. Donald Trump's Poll Ratings Dip into Negative Zones in Swing States The devastating result of the Civiqs poll: Donald Trump's approval rating is below zero percent in seven swing states (Pennsylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, and Nevada). This means that the US President has plummeted into negative territory. But the Civiqs poll not only showed that Donald Trump's approval rating has declined in the swing states that voted for him in the 2024 US election, but also that it is still below 50 percent even in some states where the president's approval rating is higher or equal to his disapproval rating. A disgrace. Donald Trump on the Brink - Approval Ratings a Warning Signal for the Republican Party The poll results should serve as a warning signal for the Republican Party. The approval ratings in the swing states, which are often decisive in elections, provide an indication of how voters might decide in the 2026 midterm elections. If they want to stay on track and return to the White House with the next Republican candidate, Republicans should perhaps change their strategy and sit down with Trump. Especially since he still seems to be obsessed with the idea of ​​becoming US president for a third time.
