Poll: Trump's Favorability Drops Among Asian American Adults
A recent survey shows that people of Asian and Pacific Islander descent are starting to dislike Donald Trump more.
This is because they're worried about high prices and think his plans for tariffs (taxes on goods from other countries) will make things even more expensive.
Many feel the economy might get worse, and they're anxious about the cost of everyday items.
A lot of people in this group voted for other parties in the past.
Some of them think both major political parties have become too extreme.
People are worried about the tariffs and the economy's future.
A new poll indicates a decline in favorability towards Donald Trump among Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AAPI) adults.
Unfavorable opinions of Trump among AAPI adults rose to 71% in July, up from 60% in December, according to the poll.
Independent AAPI adults show a particularly negative shift in opinion, with about 70% holding unfavorable views.
Economic concerns, including expectations of rising costs due to tariffs, are cited as key factors in the shift.
About two-thirds of AAPI adults express concern about a potential US recession.
