Nationwide May Day Protests Surge Amid Declining Trump Approval Ratings

As Donald Trump approaches the landmark of his second term's 100 days, recent polling and an uprising of protests highlight intensifying dissatisfaction with his leadership. A Pew Research Center poll reveals only 40% of Americans endorse Trump's performance, a seven-point decrease since February. Furthermore, 59% disapprove of his tariff increases. The poll, conducted with 3,589 respondents from April 7-13, shows that 51% believe Trump overuses executive orders. Strong bipartisan sentiment exists, with 78% supporting the annulment of actions judged illegal by federal courts, rising to 88% if the Supreme Court concurs.
