US President Donald Trump's approval rating has plummeted to near the lowest point of his political career, with cost of living concerns and the ongoing Iran conflict dragging him down, according to a recent Reuters/Ipsos poll.

Trump's Republicans suffered significant losses in the November 3 midterm elections, with Democrats securing major victories in both chambers of Congress.

The Iran war, launched by Trump in February, has significantly increased fuel prices, exacerbating household financial pressures.
