Trump's actual U.S. approval rating in May 2026 polls ranges from 34% to 39%, not 25%. The 99% Israel figure is a boast Trump himself made, not a real polling result; an actual poll by the Jewish People Policy Institute found 73% of Israelis view him favorably. While it is directionally true that Trump is more popular in Israel than in the U.S., the specific figures cited are wrong.","claims":[{"claim":"Trump has a 99% approval rating in Israel","assessment":"False. This figure originates from Trump's own boast during a media interaction in May 2026, not from any actual poll. A February 2026 poll by the Israeli think tank Jewish People Policy Institute found that 73% of Israelis rate Trump favorably — high, but far from 99%."},{"claim":"Trump has a 25% approval rating in the United States","assessment":"False. Multiple May 2026 polls show Trump's U.S. approval rating between 34% and 39%: Quinnipiac (34%, May 14-18), AP-NORC (37%, May 14-18), Emerson College (39%, May 24-25), and YouGov (34%, May 22-26). The 25% figure significantly understates his actual polling."}],"caveats":"Approval ratings fluctuate over time and vary by pollster.
