President Donald Trump has seen a decline in approval ratings since his January return to the White House, dropping from 52% to 44% by April 23, with disapproval peaking at 52%. Key events contributing to this decline include the implementation of tariffs on Canada, leading to retaliatory measures, and controversies surrounding leaked military plans by Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth. Trump’s comments on deportation processes have also drawn criticism, mainly from independent voters, despite maintaining strong support among Republicans.
