Trump's approval rating remains near historic lows, and most Americans expect oil prices to continue rising.

According to a poll conducted by Reuters/Ipsos completed on Monday, recent support for US President Trump has remained near the lowest level of his political career, with most Americans predicting that gasoline prices will continue to rise against the backdrop of the Iran war. Around 35% of respondents indicated approval of Trump's performance in the White House, unchanged from a previous Reuters/Ipsos poll conducted in mid-May. This figure is only slightly higher than his lowest approval rating during his current term - 34% in a poll conducted in April - and is close to his first term's lowest record of 33% set in December 2017. In recent months, Trump has faced widespread criticism for his decision to go to war with Iran, which has led to a sharp increase in gasoline prices. Although gasoline prices have slightly decreased in recent weeks as markets bet the conflict with Iran will end, the six-day poll showed that about 59% of respondents predict American gasoline prices will continue to rise in the next year, while only 17% believe prices will improve. The remaining respondents were unsure or believed prices would stay the same.
