A recent poll indicates that U.S. President Donald Trump’s approval rating has declined following the prolonged conflict with Iran and rising energy costs. According to a survey conducted by the Associated Press and NORC research center, only 33% of respondents approve of his overall performance, down from 38% last month.<\/p>\n
In the economic realm, satisfaction with Trump’s performance has fallen to 30%. This figure reflects an 8% decrease since March and a 9% drop compared to February, falling below his previous low of 31% recorded in December. The economy had been a central theme of Trump’s 2024 election campaign.<\/p>\n
The report highlights that increased energy prices due to the Strait of Hormuz crisis have driven the highest consumer inflation rate in the U.S. in four years. The Strait of Hormuz is a critical oil transit route globally, and any disruption there can impact international energy markets.<\/p>\n
The conflict between the U.S. and Iran has now lasted over 53 days. Iran’s control over this strategic waterway has strained global oil supplies and significantly raised fuel prices, which analysts say have affected the economic wellbeing of American families and, consequently, public approval of the government.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
