Trump won the 2024 election just eight months ago. Yet, his approval ratings are already slipping.<\/p>\n
A recent Emerson College poll shows 45% approve of how Trump runs the U.S. Meanwhile, 46% disapprove, and 9% remain unsure. Notably, 45% believe the country is heading in the wrong direction.<\/p>\n
Similarly, a Quinnipiac University poll found only 38% of Americans approve of Trump\u2019s job performance\u2014his lowest rating in decades.<\/p>\n
With these numbers in mind, Trump supporters have taken to Reddit. They discussed what would make them stop backing the president\u2014or what already has.<\/p>\n

Another shared how they asked their father, a strong Trump supporter. The answer?<\/p>\n
\n\u201cIf cuts to Medicaid and Social Security happen, he\u2019ll lose faith in Trump.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
