Donald Trump’s polling numbers are “plummeting” according to his niece Mary Trump, and one result in particular will hurt him most of all.
The president is weathering a storm of GOP infighting, cost-of-living crisis, and the impending release of the Jeffrey Epstein files. Healthcare is proving to be a running sore too, with the Trump administration delaying their healthcare plan on Monday. Trump’s approval rating has slid in the last few months and, according to various pollsters, he’s not as popular as he once was.
But one polling result will affect the president most of all, with Mary Trump outlining how a Fox News poll paints a picture of steady decline for the public’s mood on the Trump administration.
She said, “Donald’s poll numbers are abysmal. He is polling horribly in multiple surveys across a wide range of audiences. I want to start with the numbers that hurt him the most, those of Fox State TV. Now, to be fair, Fox is an awful, awful media outlet, however, its polls are rock solid, which makes it even worse for Donald.”
Trump was handed a “negative” rating from his own political base on Fox News. On a poll for how people feel about their personal financial situation, 60% said they are in a “fair or poor” situation. It’s the same number of Americans who said their financial situation was “poor or fair” in March 2025.
The US economy also has people worried, according to the Fox News poll, with 76% of those polled saying the condition of the economy is “poor or fair”. A third poll on overall economic conditions had just 25% of people believe the nation’s economy was in good shape.
It’s not the first negative milestone Trump has hit this week either, with polls showing an average disapproval rating of 55%. Jordan King wrote, “A new poll by J.L. Partners, conducted between November 19 and 20 on 1,244 registered voters, found that 49 percent disapproved of Trump, while 41 percent approved.”
“The poll had a margin of error of +/- 3.2 percent. The pollster’s previous poll, conducted in mid-October, showed Trump with a 46 percent approval rating.” It means Trump’s approval rating is negative with every pollster for the first time in either of his two terms.
