Americans picked Democrats over Republicans as better stewards of the economy for the first time in nearly a decade in a Reuters/Ipsos poll, which also found their approval of President Donald Trump’s performance falling to 35%.
The finding, in a poll conducted Wednesday through yesterday, showed how Trump’s handling of the economy, including rising energy prices resulting from the Iran war, could weigh on his party’s chances in the November midterm elections that will determine control of Congress for the next two years.
Trump’s presidential approval rating fell to 35% from 37% in a prior Reuters/Ipsos poll last month, with the share of Americans who approve of his presidency within just one percentage point of the lowest level of his term.
