Last year, President Donald Trump capitalized on widespread voter frustration regarding the economy, successfully securing key swing states that ultimately led to his victory for a second term in the White House. However, nearly 100 days into his renewed presidency, a growing chorus of voters seems less than impressed, expressing significant dissatisfaction with the way the president has managed critical economic issues such as inflation and tariffs.

According to the most recent Washington Post-Ipsos survey, which was conducted from April 18 through April 22, Trump's approval rating regarding economic management stands at a lowly 39%. This statistic is starkly contrasted by the 61% of adults who disapprove of his efforts on this crucial issue. Alarmingly, the survey revealed that 53% of respondents believe the economy has deteriorated since Trump resumed office, while only 21% feel it has improved.

Moreover, Trump finds himself in similarly unfavorable territory concerning his approach to tariffs. The survey indicated that a significant 64% of adults disapprove of his management in this area. Compounding this negative sentiment, when asked about the recent fluctuations in the stock market, a staggering 67% of adults disapproved of Trump's handling of the situation, with only 31% expressing approval.

In a separate CBS News/YouGov poll, conducted from April 23 to April 25, the disapproval rating of Trump's economic management climbed to 58%. Voters are particularly frustrated regarding inflationa topic Trump relentlessly criticized former President Joe Biden about during the campaign. This focus on inflation has not translated into voter support for Trump; about 62% of adults disapproved of his handling of the issue, while a notable 53% stated that the economy is worsening. Only 28% felt it was improving.

Adding to the picture, a recent New York Times/Siena College survey conducted in late April revealed that 50% of registered voters believe Trump has exacerbated the economic situation, while just 21% think he has made it better. Additionally, 27% of registered voters perceive the economy to be about the same as it was prior to Trumps return to the Oval Office.

Overall, the Times/Siena College survey painted a rather bleak picture for Trump, showing his job approval rating at 42%, with 54% of registered voters disapproving of his performance so far.

The growing dissatisfaction is not confined to voters alone. Democrats have vocally criticized Trump's trade strategy, arguing that he possesses excessive authority in setting tariff rates without the necessary oversight from Congress. Interestingly, Trump has not only faced opposition from the Democratic party; notable pushback has also come from within his own Republican ranks. A group of seven senators has aligned with Democrats on legislative efforts aimed at reining in Trumps tariff powers.

Trumps erratic trade policies have injected a considerable amount of uncertainty into the economy. Earlier this month, he imposed sweeping tariffs on several countries, only to announce a 90-day pause on many of those tariffs just days later. Despite this pause, his 10% baseline tariff remains in effect for most nations, along with steep tariffs on Chinese goods, which have ignited a trade war between the United States and China.

Experts in supply chain management and logistics have expressed concerns that if Trump persists with his confrontational trade strategies, American consumers could face higher prices and potentially experience shortages on store shelves.
