Last week there was an AP/NORC poll that had Donald Trump's approval at 33%. That was a huge drop since March. Now there is a Reuters/Ipsos poll with Trump's approval at 34%. This is starting to get serious. If Trump's approval hits the Bush line (32% approval) and stays there, Republicans will probably lose the Senate as well as the House. The Texas Senate race could be the canary in the coal mine. Yesterday, a second Texas poll was released showing state Rep. James Talarico (D) beating Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) 40% to 33% and beating Ken Paxton 42% to 34%.
Of course, two recent presidential approval polls in the low 30s aren't the whole story. Here are Trump's 10 most recent approval polls:
| Pollster | Date | Approve | Disapprove | Net |

The average is more high 30s than low 30s, but as gas prices go up and hope for a quick resolution of the war in Iran goes down, the more recent polls may be a harbinger of what's next. (V)
