U.S. President Donald Trump reacts as he welcomes Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu

A new poll conducted by Fox News shows that President Donald Trump has the highest disapproval rating on record. The conservative network also found large majorities of respondents disapproved of his ability to lower prices for daily necessities.

On Wednesday, Fox News reported that just 41 percent of those polled approved of Trump's performance as president, with 58 percent disapproving. When separating out respondents by party, 86 percent of Republican respondents approved of Trump's presidency, though that figure is down from 92 percent in March.

Roughly 76 percent of American voters have a negative view of the economy. Only 18 percent of those surveyed thought inflation was either completely or mostly under control. And large majorities of poll respondents said that costs for basic needs had either increased by a little or by a lot. 85 percent said groceries had increased (60 percent saying grocery prices went up by "a lot") while 78 percent of those polled said the same of utilities.

When concerning healthcare costs, 67 percent of respondents told Fox News that they were paying more in 2025 compared to last year. 66 percent said the same of housing costs. 53 percent said gasoline prices were more costly now than in 2024. Inside Elections deputy editor Jacob Rubashkin said the results were "arguably the most worrisome poll of Trump's second term and potentially first term too."

"Absolutely catastrophic numbers for Donny," tweeted Zenith Polls founding partner Adam Carlson.

The latest Fox News polls suggests a sharp divide between Americans and Trump's consistent argument that prices have gone down under his administration. When a three-time Trump voter sent him a message through Fox News host Bret Baier earlier this month to "please do something" about the cost of living, the president defended his economy and insisted that costs under him were lower than under former President Joe Biden.

The Fox News survey marks the first national poll by the conservative network since this month's elections, which saw Republicans lose by significant margins in multiple states to Democratic candidates who largely ran on lowering prices.
