Economic Gains Fail to Boost Approval for Trump and Milei Amid Social Discontent

Despite recent positive economic indicators in both the United States and Argentina, Presidents Donald Trump and Javier Milei are struggling with low approval ratings. Trump's economic approval is around 30%, with overall support at 37%, while Milei's popularity has declined since his election in October 2025. Recent data shows U.S. GDP growth of 1.6% year-on-year and a slight drop in unemployment to 7.8% in Argentina. However, inflation remains a concern, with U.S. inflation at 4.2% and Argentina's at 2%. The disconnect between improving economic metrics and public sentiment raises questions about the leaders' ability to regain support amid ongoing geopolitical tensions and domestic issues.
