Donald Trump rode a poor economy back to the White House during his 2024 campaign, but seven months into his second term, most voters aren't seeing what they want.
The Center Square Voters' Voice Poll, conducted by Noble Predictive Insights, surveyed 2,565 registered voters from Oct. 2-6, 2025, via opt-in online panel and text-to-web cell phone messages. The poll found that 51% of voters disapproved or strongly disapproved of Trump's handling of the U.S. economy. About 47% of voters approve or strongly approve of Trump's handling of the economy. About 3% of voters said they weren't sure.
Republicans were more likely to view Trump's economic record favorably. About 80% of Republican voters said they approved of Trump's economy. However, Democrats and independents don't see it that way. Among Democrats, 83% disapprove. Among independents, 57% disapprove.
