President Donald Trump is losing support from GOP voters, according to three right-leaning pollsters flagged by Newsweek.

As the magazine notes, "a TIPP Insights poll conducted for the League of American Workers, released Sunday, showed that 50 percent of registered voters disapprove of the job Trump is doing as president, compared with 43 percent who approve. This gives the Republican a net approval rating of minus 7 points."

Even Rasmussen Reports, one of the most consistently Trump-friendly pollsters, shows Trump's approval rating declining. “On Friday, the tracker showed that 50 percent of likely voters disapprove of Trump's job performance, while 48 percent approve.”

In a separate poll Rasmussen also showed “a majority of Americans (52 percent) disapprove of Trump's tariff plans, compared with 43 percent who approve.”

The outlet later also noted of a third pollster who showed the President’s approval rating is declining.

“Republican polling group RMG Research for the Napolitan News Service, shows Trump with a net approval rating of plus 1 point (49 percent approve, 48 percent disapprove).”

“This is the president's lowest net score in polling by Napolitan News and RMG Research this year.”

Newsweek noted all of the surveys were taken before the President placed a pause on his tariff plans.

In mid-febuary RMG Research showed the President had a plus-12 approval rating score (55 percent approve, 43 percent disapprove). Giving him an 11 point drop in the eyes of RMG research.

Political science professor and director of the Centre on U.S. Politics at University College London, Thomas Gift, told the outlet, "Trump has long built his brand on being a master dealmaker and a savvy businessman. However, the last several days have dealt a serious blow to that image."
