Quantus Insights, one of the most accurate polling firms of the 2024 presidential election, released a new survey Thursday that challenges recent polling from outlets like Quinnipiac, which showed President Trump with notably low approval ratings both overall and on key issues.
The poll, conducted from June 9 to 11 among 1,000 registered voters, measured Trump’s overall approval rating at 47.5 percent—a drop of 1.3 percentage points from the previous week. Meanwhile, 49.1 percent of respondents reported an unfavorable view of the former president, a 0.9 percent increase since June 5. “His base remains solid, but independents continue to show weak or conditional support,” Quantus Insights noted.
Trump’s immigration policies, including deportations, are well-received by the public. In a recent survey, 52 percent of respondents approved of the president’s immigration policies, while 46 percent disapproved. “The numbers suggest that while specific actions like deportation draw higher support, the broader label of “immigration policy” brings more hesitation,” Quantus said of the result.
Trump’s handling of the economy has slipped somewhat in the eyes of voters, however, with just 42 percent of respondents saying his economic vision is moving the country in the right direction. Registered voters were also asked about President Trump’s decision to deploy National Guard troops to Los Angeles in response to anti-ICE riots and attacks on federal agents. A majority—51 percent—said they supported the deployment, while 45 percent opposed it.
Republicans earned their strongest approval on issues such as immigration, crime, and the economy, while Democrats received higher marks on education and healthcare. “It’s one of his better-performing issues, signaling public frustration with disorder and broad backing for strong-handed response,” Quantus noted.
When it comes to overall approval of the two major political parties, the Republican Party holds a 42 percent approval rating, with 52 percent disapproving. The Democratic Party fared worse, with just 36 percent expressing approval and 58 percent disapproval.
Looking ahead to the 2026 midterm elections, Quantus Insights found the two parties deadlocked at 43 percent each on the generic congressional ballot. A significant portion of voters—14 percent—remain undecided.
