[Trump's Approval Rating Drops to 37%, Republican Concerns Over Midterm Elections Intensify] BlockBeats News, September 26, according to a report by *The Wall Street Journal*, with about five weeks remaining until the U.S. midterm elections, Trump has predicted to those around him that Republicans will perform better than expected in November. However, Republican candidates, strategists, and lawmakers are increasingly worried about the election prospects. The latest poll by *The Wall Street Journal* shows that Trump's approval rating has dropped to 37%, marking the lowest level for a sitting president ahead of midterm elections since the survey began in 1990. The poll was conducted from September 16 to 21, surveying 1,500 registered voters, with a margin of error of ±2.5 percentage points. Among voters who supported Trump in 2024, 11% expressed regret over their vote; similarly, 11% of Republican voters who do not identify with the MAGA faction plan to support Democrats in the congressional elections. Recently, some Republican candidates in key states have publicly called for an end to the war with Iran or have distanced themselves from Trump's immigration and energy policies. Democrats only need to gain a few seats to reclaim the House of Representatives, while the Republican-controlled Senate is also considered a toss-up. Trump is currently focusing on approximately 35 highly competitive races and plans to support Republican candidates through virtual rallies and visits to swing states. [Original Link]
