Summary
Elon Musk’s job approval dropped to 41%—his lowest since joining the Trump administration—according to a Marquette Law School poll.
His favorability fell to 38%, while 58% disapproved of his work leading DOGE.
The decline follows backlash over Musk’s political involvement, including his $22 million support of Brad Schimel, who lost Wisconsin’s Supreme Court race.
Musk’s alignment with controversial Trump policies, such as calls to annex Canada, has further eroded public support.
Why would we have an approval rating for a non elected official?
I’m pretty sure any public figure can have an un/favorability rating. There’s no rule that says you can only poll the favorability of elected officials. Taylor Swift has a favorability rating.
