A new national survey suggests President Donald Trump is facing a steep drop in public support, even as he insists his second term is “running beautifully.” The latest CNN/SSRS poll, conducted October 27–30 among 1,245 adults, puts Trump’s approval rating at 37%, down sharply from 47% back in February—one of the lowest points of his presidency. Meanwhile, 63% of Americans say they disapprove of the job he’s doing.

The public mood isn’t any brighter when it comes to the state of the country. 68% of respondents say things in the U.S. are going “pretty badly” or “very badly,” pointing to rising prices and everyday costs as major drivers of frustration. Nearly half—47%—name the economy and cost of living as the nation’s most urgent problem. Another 26% are most concerned about the health of American democracy. And despite Trump’s relentless focus on border issues, only 10% identify immigration as their top concern.

A majority of Americans believe Trump’s policies are adding to these challenges. 61% say his decisions have made the economy worse, and 56% think he has weakened America’s standing around the world. Questions about presidential power are also growing louder: 61% of those polled say Trump has gone “too far” in using his authority.

These attitudes are shaping how voters are approaching the upcoming midterms. 41% say they plan to vote specifically to oppose Trump, while just 21% say their vote will be meant to support him.....
