According to a recent Gallup poll, the Supreme Court's approval rating has dropped to 33%, a decrease of 6 percentage points from 39% in July 2025. This marks the lowest approval rating recorded in the 26 years Gallup has been polling this issue. Disapproval of the court has surged to 61%, up from 52% last September.
Notably, Republican approval has plummeted to 58%, down from 79% in September, indicating that recent rulings against the Trump administration, particularly regarding tariffs and birthright citizenship, have negatively affected Republican perceptions of the court.
While the court has made some rulings favorable to Trump, such as allowing presidential firings of independent agency members, the overall sentiment among Republicans has shifted. The poll surveyed 1,200 adults between July 1 and July 19, with a margin of error of 4 percentage points.
Approval ratings among Democrats and independents remained largely unchanged, with only 12% of Democrats and 35% of independents expressing approval. This trend reflects a broader dissatisfaction with the court, particularly since it has maintained a 6-3 conservative majority
