According to political analyst Nate Silver, President Trump's approval rating has fallen to a new low since the start of his second term this month due to the ongoing unpopular war with Iran and soaring gasoline prices. He said, "The timing coincides very closely with gas prices and the resumption of the war with Iran." As the war approaches six months in, data from the American Automobile Association (AAA) shows that as of Friday morning, the average price of gasoline in the United States was about $4.11 per gallon, up from about $3.15 a year ago. According to average polling data from Decision Desk HQ, as of Friday morning, Trump's overall average approval rating was 40.6%, and his average disapproval rating was 57.5%. A Quinnipiac University survey shows that 60% of American voters oppose the war, the highest disapproval rate since the conflict began on February 28. Nearly three-quarters of Americans say they do not support sending US troops to Iran. An AP-NORC poll also shows that 64% of Americans believe the war is "not worth it." Of these, 87% of Democratic voters, 37% of Republican voters, and 68% of independent voters hold this view. (Jinshi)
