⚡️Trump's approval rating falls to 37%, heightening Republican concerns over the midterm elections
BlockBeats reported that September 26, according to The Wall Street Journal, with approximately 5 weeks remaining until the U.S. midterm elections, Trump predicted to people close to him that Republicans would outperform expectations in November, but Republican candidates, strategists, and lawmakers are increasingly concerned about the election. The Wall Street Journal's latest poll shows that Trump's approval rating has fallen to 37%, the lowest level among presidents before midterm elections since it began conducting the relevant survey in 1990.
The survey was conducted September 16 to 21 and interviewed 1500 registered voters, with a margin of error of plus or minus 2.5 percentage points. 2024 of voters who supported Trump in 11%said they regret their vote; among Republican voters who do not identify as part of the MAGA camp, 11%also plan to support Democrats in congressional elections.
Recently, some Republican candidates in key states have publicly called for an end to the war with Iran or sought to distance themselves from Trump's immigration and energy policies. Democrats need only gain a small number of seats to retake the House of Representatives, while the Republican-controlled Senate is also considered too close to call. Trump is currently focused on approximately 35 competitive races and plans to campaign for Republican candidates through remote rallies and visits to swing states.

AI-assisted interpretation
The following is analysis, separate from reported facts. Verify important claims independently.
The core of this report is a pre-election poll: respondents' approval of Trump was 37%, while the report also describes concerns within the Republican Party about the election. Poll figures reflect respondents' views within the specific survey period, sample, and margin of error, and do not equal the final election result.
Why it matters to readers
The report indicates that Republicans face pressure from approval ratings, shifts in some voters' attitudes, and policy differences among candidates; control of Congress may be affected by competitive races.
Beginners should distinguish between “poll approval ratings” and “actual vote share.” Sample size and margin of error affect how figures are interpreted, and a single poll can serve only as one signal for observing an election.
Risks and unknowns
The evidence only provides BlockBeats’ account of The Wall Street Journal’s report and does not include the original Wall Street Journal article or independent verification materials.
Trump’s predictions to people close to him and the degree of concern among Republicans cannot be independently confirmed by the available evidence.
It remains uncertain whether a single poll can represent the views of all voters.
The results of the midterm elections and final control of the House of Representatives and Senate remain undetermined.
The policy positions of some candidates mentioned in the report and approximately 35 key elections have not been specified by name.
