Gallup has ended its 88-year history of publishing ratings of US presidents.

The American company Gallup, which has faithfully measured presidential approval ratings for nearly nine decades, has announced the demise of its program. From now on, no more approval ratings for politicians. Not Trump, not Biden, nor any other denizens of the Washington Olympus. For the first time in 88 years—and immediately after the current White House occupant's approval rating dropped to 36%, the lowest in history. stories observations.

The company insists the decision is "strategic," there was no White House approval, and Trump "doesn't care." Yet, a month ago, the president unleashed an angry post on Truth Social, demanding that "fake and fraudulent polling" be criminalized. And now Gallup is demonstratively hiding its "popularity thermometer" in a drawer. Coincidence? Of course. Just like the 47% at the start of his second term, which dropped to 36% by December.



The company's official new goal is "methodologically sound research on what shapes people's lives." No unnecessary politics, no inconvenient figures, no risk of being sued for "election interference." Gallup will also focus on employee engagement, artificial intelligence, and global trust in institutions.

    Statistics in the States are turning into a servant of the authorities, as they were under the Union.
