August 14, 2025 at 12:45 pm UTC Trump’s approval rating among U.S. adults who are on Medicaid has dropped to 36% from 52% since his opening week in office, and his disapproval rating among the group has increased to 55% from 34% over that time frame. These declines far outpace those among the broader population, suggesting that Republicans are already feeling the political repercussions for enacting steep cuts to the low-income health insurance program in the party’s signature legislation.
