Trumps Approval Ratings May Be About To Crater [View all]

First of all, the bombing of Iran is NOT popular. Initial polling:

CNN 44% Approve, 56% disapprove
CBS 44% Approve, 56% disapprove
YouGov 35% Approve, 53% disapprove
Ipsos 36% Approve, 45% disapprove
Quinnipiac 42% Approve, 51% disapprove

Then look at the recent polling on Trump's overall approval. Only Ipsos and YouGov polled anyone after the bombings took place and even for those, the vast majority of the polling was before the bombings.

Date Pollster Approve Disapprove
Jun 23 Ipsos 41% Approve, 57% Disapprove, -16% Net
Jun 23 YouGov 40% Approve, 54% Disapprove, -14% Net
Jun 20 American Research Group 38% Approve, 59% Disapprove, -21% Net
Jun 19 Gallup 40% Approve, 57% Disapprove, -17% Net

Once the events of the past week are factored in, I would expect the approval ratings to sink even further
