Trump approval rating
Ratings have remained largely stable in recent months, despite a decline since the start of his second term. Polling data from mid-September 2025 shows Donald Trump’s approval ratings ranging from 41% to 46% among major poll trackers, with an average net disapproval rating of 7 to 8 percentage points
Recent poll findings
Recent surveys conducted in early to mid-September 2025 reported the following approval percentages:
Reuters/Ipsos: 42% approval (Sept. 5–9)
The Economist/YouGov: 41% approval (Sept. 5–8)
Morning Consult: 45% approval (Sept. 6–8)
NBC News/Decision Desk: 43% approval (Sept. 7)
Decision Desk HQ Average: 46% approval (Sept. 6–9)
Key trends and analysis
Stable but negative: Aggregators show Trump’s net approval rating holding relatively steady around -7 or -8 percentage points in recent weeks, following a more significant decline earlier in the year.
Issues-based approval: Polls reveal mixed results on specific policy areas.Higher ratings are typically seen for handling border security and public safety.
Lower ratings are generally found for handling the economy, inflation, and healthcare.State-level differences: Approval ratings vary significantly across the U.S. In a September Morning Consult poll, Trump’s highest approval was in Wyoming (62%), while his lowest was in Vermont (31%).
Historical comparison: In a historical context, Trump’s approval ratings at this point in his second term are lower than the average for modern presidents during their first year in office.— Michael Novakhov (@mikenov) Sep 15, 2025

Killings and mental dissociation
it can be a risk factor for committing violence, and it is a common psychological response after a violent or traumatic act. This relationship is a significant topic in forensic psychiatry and can affect legal proceedings.Mental dissociation is linked to killings in two key ways:
Dissociation as a risk factor for homicide
Research shows that higher levels of dissociation are associated with increased violence across different populations. Long-term dissociative processes may make individuals more prone to violent behavior, including homicide.
Forensic experts have identified several “dissociative pathways” that may lead to homicide, including:
Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID): In some cases, the violence may be expressed through a specific, dissociated personality state (formerly known as “multiple personality disorder”).
Fantasy-driven violence: This involves violence connected to a fantasy world, often with some form of identity alteration.
Paroxysms of “dissociative rage”: This refers to sudden, violent outbursts in individuals who typically present as meek or polite. This is also called “overcontrolled hostility”.
Trauma-based emotional numbing: Dissociation can cause emotional numbing similar to that seen in some individuals with psychopathy, potentially lowering inhibitions against committing violence.
Dissociation as a response to killing
Dissociation can occur during or after a violent event as a psychological defense mechanism against severe trauma. This is especially true for violent crimes that are unplanned and committed in a heightened emotional state.
Common dissociative responses include:
Peritraumatic dissociation: The perpetrator may experience symptoms like depersonalization (feeling detached from one’s body) or derealization (feeling that the world is unreal) during the violent act.
Amnesia for the event: Offenders sometimes report partial or total amnesia for the crime. This is claimed in up to one-third of homicides. This “dissociative amnesia” can help a person mentally escape the horror of the event.
Guilt and moral injury: Among soldiers, killing in war is associated with mental health consequences such as post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), peritraumatic dissociation, guilt, and shame.
Legal and forensic implications
The presence of dissociation in an offender has significant legal and forensic implications:
Determining criminal responsibility: The legal system must grapple with how a dissociative state or a diagnosed disorder like DID affects an individual’s criminal responsibility.
Assessments are complex: The complexity lies in connecting the offender’s reported symptoms to specific clinical diagnoses and legal constructs, such as fitness to stand trial or diminished capacity.
System accountability: In cases of DID, while an “alter personality” may have committed the crime, the legal system generally holds the person accountable for the actions of their entire system.— Michael Novakhov (@mikenov) Sep 15, 2025
