US midterm elections: Trump approval rating falls to new low
With US President Donald Trump’s approval rating falling to a record low of 31%, Republicans are facing mounting concerns ahead of November’s midterm elections. Republicans are at risk of losing control of the House of Representatives, but how big could the Democrats’ gains be?
What the coverage shows
All four outlets focus on Trump’s approval rating reaching a new low and tie that to the midterm outlook. France 24 and Sky News foreground Republican election risk, while PBS NewsHour centers a discussion format with Tamara Keith and Carrie Dann and adds other political topics from the same segment. The Guardian US is the outlier, using the low approval rating to frame a question about whether small business confidence could help Trump, and it is the only one that highlights small business surveys.
