President Donald Trump has suggested Republicans may lose the 2026 midterm elections despite his claims of creating "the greatest economy in history." While touting economic achievements, Trump faces declining approval ratings, with only 31% of Americans supporting his economic policies according to recent polls. Inflation, which initially slowed after Trump's return to office, has been rising since April, complicating his narrative of economic success.
