Fewer Americans than ever approve of the job the Supreme Court is doing, according to new Gallup polling, a decline driven by a drop in Republicans’ approval over the last year. One-third of US adults approve of the job the high court is doing, down from 39% last year, while a record high of 61% disapprove. Fifty-eight percent of Republicans approve of the court, according to the poll, which was taken after the conclusion of the latest term. That’s down from the near-record 79% who approved of the court last September. The court’s recent rulings against Trump’s tariffs and his birthright citizenship order may have contributed to that softening in approval. Still, the 6-3 majority conservative court has more often ruled in favor of the president — even if, as liberal Justice Elena Kagan argued recently, the court is not a “rubber stamp” for Trump. |
