Melania Trumps approval rating fell to 36 percent as critics cited her limited public role.
Dec. 31 2025, Published 7:33 p.m. ET
By multiple measures, Melania Trumps public standing continues to plummet. According to YouGov polling, her popularity stands at just 36 percent, with more Americans voicing their dislike for her than showing support 43 percent disapproved while only 18 percent described their views as neutral.
Melania Trumps approval rating fell to 36 percent, according to polling data.
This figure reflects a significant decline compared to recent first ladies and even from Trumps own standing when she departed the White House in 2021.
