Map Shows Donald Trump Approval Rating in America's Biggest Beef States
A Newsweek analysis examines the president's standing in the states that produce more than half of America's cattle inventory.
President Donald Trump's decision to allow more tariff-free imported beef has sparked controversy among cattle producers and local leaders in America's biggest beef states. However, new polling from Civiqs shows that the policy has not yet affected Trump's approval ratings in these states. The analysis compares Civiqs approval figures from August 21, when Trump announced the tariff waiver, with polling conducted six days later on August 27.
The data also looks back at Trump's approval rating on January 20, 2025, the first day of his second term, calculating net approval as approve minus disapprove.
