The poll surveying 1,625 U.S. adults from April 19-22 found 41% of respondents approved of Trump's job, compared to 54% who disapproved. That's down from the -10 net approval rating found in the prior week's poll by The Economist/YouGov.

Trump started off his term with higher approval ratings than those he received in his first term. But his approval ratings in April 2017 (first term) and April 2025 (second term) are the two lowest approval marks among any newly-elected president since 1953, historical data from Gallup shows.

 

President Joe Biden's approval ratings at this point in his presidency were positive by 11 percentage points, according to YouGov.

Elon MuskTesla CEO Elon Musk said he would soon be spending less time with the Trump administration after first-quarter earnings fell short of expectations.

Net income for the quarter was down 71% after a decline in vehicle deliveries, with Tesla battling growing competition from foreign brands, shifting trade policies and growing backlash to the brand after Musk aligned himself with the Trump administration.

"There are some challenges, and I expect that this year will be, there will probably be some unexpected bumps this year," Musk said during a Tuesday earnings call. "But I remain extremely optimistic about the future of the company."

The slump comes as Tesla, along with other automakers, adjust to auto tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump. In a Tuesday financial report, Tesla said “rapidly evolving trade policy” has impacted the global supply chain and the company’s cost structure.

john UliotJohn Ullyot, who resigned last week as chief Pentagon spokesperson, predicted that Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth will also be out of a job soon.

And he warned that even more “bombshell” stories about Hegseth and the Defense Department are about to drop.

“It’s been a month of total chaos at the Pentagon,” Ullyot, who has served in a number of roles within President Donald Trump’s orbit over the years, wrote in an opinion piece for Politico. “From leaks of sensitive operational plans to mass firings, the dysfunction is now a major distraction for the president — who deserves better from his senior leadership.”

Hegseth has been under fire after a series of reports that he repeatedly shared highly sensitive information outside official channels, especially via the Signal messaging app.

Harvard sues TrumpHarvard University sued the Trump administration on Monday after the federal government canceled billions of dollars in funding for the Ivy League school.

The lawsuit marks a significant — though expected — escalation in the battle between Harvard and President Trump after the nation’s oldest university rejected administration demands to eliminate diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives and change its admission and hiring practices, among other things.

In response, the Trump administration froze billions of dollars in funding, threatened the school’s tax-exemption status and said it could take away its ability to admit international students.
