Before "Liberation Day" on April 2, 2025, polls generally showed Trump with approval ratings around 47-50% and disapproval slightly lower or equal, often giving him a net positive or neutral rating. For instance, early March polls had approval at about 49% and disapproval at 47%, with some variation across sources like Gallup and Morning Consult. Economic approval was mixed but leaned positive, reflecting optimism from his inauguration.
After "Liberation Day," when Trump announced sweeping tariffs, approval ratings dropped noticeably. Polls conducted entirely post-announcement show approval falling to 43-46% and disapproval rising to 50-54%. Specific declines include Navigator Research reporting a net approval drop from -2 to -9, Morning Consult from -3 to -6, and YouGov/Economist from -3 to -8. Economic approval took a harder hit, with Navigator noting a shift from +1 to -13, and tariffs faced strong disapproval, with 55-60% of respondents across polls like Marquette and YouGov viewing them as harmful. The average net approval drop across multiple polls is roughly 7 points, driven largely by economic concerns and market volatility following the tariff announcement.

Can you shorten that? I need it for a quick fact check.

These polls were selected for their proximity to the event and consistency in tracking public opinion. The averages (~47-50% to ~43-46% approval, ~47% to ~50-54% disapproval) reflect a synthesis of their findings, accounting for slight variations in methodology and timing. The net approval drop of ~7 points aligns with shifts reported across these sources, particularly tied to economic concerns post-tariffs.
