President Donald Trump reportedly lost some support among Republican voters, according to a new YouGov/Economist poll.

The survey reported that 84% of respondents who voted for Trump in the 2024 presidential election approve his job performance during his second term, while 14% disapproved, totaling a +70 net approval rating. The number is, however, down from the +74 net approval rating the president had in August.

Trump is also reported to have -18 overall net approval rating with 39% of respondents approving his job performance and 57% saying they disapprove in the poll, which was conducted between October 31 and November 3 amid the ongoing government shutdown, the longest in American history.

On Monday (November 10), polling expert Nate Silver claimed that Trump's approval rating "has been in a free fall" in recent weeks in the latest edition of his Silver Bulletin Substack. Silver reported that Trump's net approval rating has consistently decreased since October 19, having been -7.5 at the time and dropping to -13 as of Monday, which was the lowest of any point during his second term in office.

"Donald Trump’s approval rating has been in a free fall since late October. His net approval rating in the Silver Bulletin average on October 19th was -7.5. But today, it’s down to -13.0. That’s the lowest it’s been during his second term. The share of Americans who strongly disapprove of Trump also hit a second term high of 45 percent yesterday," Silver wrote. "That means Trump is once again less popular than [former President] Joe Biden was at this point in his term (net approval rating of -13.0 vs. -8.3). But at the same time, Trump’s net approval rating is still about 5 points higher than it was on day 291 of his first term. Tuesday’s exit polls also indicate that Trump is well underwater in Virginia (-20 net approval rating) and New Jersey (-15)."

Trump's approval rating was also reported to have dropped several points in the past month in the latest Emerson College Polling survey released last Friday (November 7). The president was reported to have a 41% approval rating, which was a four-point decrease from 45% reported in the survey conducted in October, as well as a 49% disapproval rating, which was a 1% increase from October.

Rasmussen, which has been accused of leaning conservative but claims to be independent, had Trump at a 45% approval rating for several days during its daily poll. The president was at 45% between October 28 and November 3 before improving to 47% on November 4 and dropping to 46% last Wednesday (November 5).

Trump began his second of two non-consecutive terms with a 56% approval rating in the daily Rasmussen poll and was at 50% as recently as October 16. The recent Rasmussen poll results are significantly closer to several other national polls that have the president's approval rating within a range between 37% and 44%.
