Fox News anchor Bret Baier reportedly shared concerning results from a new poll regarding President Donald Trump’s approval ratings, marking 100 days into his second term.
During an episode of “Special Report,” Baier revealed that Trump’s current approval rating stands at 44%, placing him as the lowest-rated president in the history of the poll at this stage, just behind his first term’s 45%.
Baier discussed the poll’s findings with Fox News Chief Political Analyst Brit Hume, who noted that Trump is struggling in nearly all key issues.
While he enjoys majority approval regarding border issues, he is underwater on topics like immigration, the economy, and tariffs.
If you look at our new Fox News poll at 100 days job approval compared to other presidents, there you see the president at 44% and you see his first term at 45%.” – Bret Baier

Hume observed that the president’s foreign policy ratings are also low, highlighting concerns about ongoing issues such as the lack of resolution in Ukraine and Russia.
Hume explained that much of Trump’s agenda remains a work in progress, with no significant trade deals finalized and growing unease about his tariff policies.
He suggested that if Trump can successfully navigate these challenges, it could lead to an improvement in his approval ratings.
The discussion underlined the political pressures Trump faces as he tries to rally support amid ongoing economic and diplomatic hurdles.
Baier and Hume’s analysis provided a sobering assessment of Trump’s current political landscape, illustrating the complexities of governance and public perception in the early days of his second term.
As the political situation evolves, the implications of these poll results will be crucial for Trump’s strategies moving forward, particularly as he seeks to regain favor among a divided electorate.
