Poll: Trump struggles on immigration, prices and Iran as Democrats hold a midterm edge

Majorities of registered voters disapprove of how President Donald Trump has handled the issues that defined the first months of a tumultuous midterm election year, as Democrats maintain an advantage in the battle for control of Congress, according to a new national NBC News poll.

Voters give Trump poor marks for his handling of immigration after his administration surged federal agents into the heart of American cities and immigration officers in Minnesota killed two U.S. citizens in January. They are down on his tariffs after the Supreme Court struck down his main tariff program in February and Trump later reimposed some of those levies.

And they don’t like his actions on Iran, with the U.S. now at war with the nation after Trump ordered strikes starting last weekend — strikes a majority say should not have happened.

Meanwhile, voters continue to disapprove sharply of Trump’s handling of inflation and the cost of living, issues that were key to his 2024 victory and remain among Americans’ top concerns heading into the midterm elections.

…but like those on border security? And trust him more than the Democrats on both?



No wonder this country is fucked.
