One prediction market prices this story:

  • Will Trump's approval rating hit 35% in 2026? — the market puts it at 32%, closing 4 Jan 2027. The Yes outcome occurs if Nate Silver’s approval rating drops to 35% or lower at any point during 2026. The rating must come from Silver Bulletin’s green trend line, and only finalized data points count toward the result. Readers often mistake the linked news story for the official source or assume any poll below 35% triggers the outcome.

Odds are the market's probability that the outcome happens, updated every few minutes. They are information about what traders expect, not a forecast we make and not investment advice.
