A new CNN poll cited by N12's Asaf Rozentzweig finds that only 34% of Americans approve of President Donald Trump's performance, matching his post-Capitol riot low. The survey shows 73% of Americans believe the president does not pay enough attention to the country's most important problems, and only about a quarter say the war against Iran was worth the cost in American lives and money.
The Zioneer reported earlier today on the same CNN poll, which shows President Donald Trump's approval rating at 34% — matching his post-Capitol riot low. The survey, reported by N12's Asaf Rozentzweig, underscores a broad erosion of public confidence: 73% of Americans say Trump does not devote enough attention to the country's most important problems, while only 27% think his priorities are correct.
On the Iran war, a key issue for the Israeli security establishment, only about a quarter of Americans say the conflict was worth the cost in lives and money — a figure that aligns with findings from recent Reuters/Ipsos and Fox News polls, as The Zioneer has previously reported. The poll also shows that 62% now say Trump is not an effective global leader, up from 54% at the start of his second term.
The findings come as the administration continues its 'maximum pressure' campaign against Iran, with inflation and fuel prices weighing on American households. The data is based on a single CNN poll cited by an Israeli journalist; no additional corroboration was available at the time of reporting.
