TRUMP’S APPROVAL AT 34%: THE MIDTERM POLITICAL LANDSCAPE IS SHIFTING

A new Financial Times and Focaldata poll puts Donald Trump’s approval rating at 34% with the survey of 2,275 registered voters conducted from October 2 to 4.

Economic concerns stand out. Only around one in five respondents approved of Trump’s handling of inflation while more than two-thirds said the US economy was heading in the wrong direction.

Meanwhile, Polymarket traders are pricing in a 91% chance of Democrats winning control of the House with roughly $15.4 million in market volume reported. That figure reflects prediction-market sentiment not a guaranteed election result.

The key factor to watch is whether dissatisfaction over prices and the economy translates into votes on November 3. Polls measure public opinion, while prediction markets reflect traders’ expectations. Neither can determine the outcome in advance.

Will economic frustration reshape Congress or can Republicans change the momentum before election day?
