President Trump has been suffering a drop in economic approval as social concern for his tariff policy increases.
A survey published on Wednesday of Reuters/Ipsos revealed that only 37 % of Americans approve the management of the economy by Trump, a 5 -point decrease since their return to the Oval office.
It is the lowest figure on the subject in its two presidential mandates, said the pollster.
Almost 75 % of adults surveyed said they were worried about a recession. More than half of the respondents, 56%, said that the restructuring of the economy by Trump is “too erratic”, including approximately 1 in 4 Republican voters.

Likewise, two thirds of Americans said they were concerned about the impact of their commercial war on the stock market. In responding to the declaration “Trump’s actions could make my life difficult when I retire”, approximately 52 % of adults agreed, while 31 % said otherwise.
Trump has imposed a 125 % tariff to most Chinese products that enter the United States, in addition to the existing 20 %, as well as a 10 % fixed tariff to most of its foreign commercial partners.
Earlier this month, he suspended most of his highest “reciprocal” tariffs and also suggested that pekin imports could be reduced after negotiation. D
Economists have warned that Trump’s tariff chaos could cause greater inflation. JPMorgan Chase declared earlier this month that the probability of a recession remains at 60 %.
The Reuters/Ipsos survey was held from April 16 to 21 between 4 306 American adults. The margin of error was approximately 2 percentage points.
