Update!
Given Gallups recent announcement to no longer track and publish approval ratings, I changing the criteria to be based on the NY Times:

Times also trends higher than Gallup so adjusting the target up 2 points.
Leaving the original description below for posterity:
—
This market resolves to true if Trump's approval rating during his second term falls below the lowest of any President since Nixon.
GW Bush had the lowest at 25%, so this resolves to true if at any point in his second term his approval drops to 24% or below
Resolution will be based on this Gallup data https://news.gallup.com/poll/203198/presidential-approval-ratings-donald-trump.aspx
Currently his approval rating is 36, down from 47 at the beginning of this second term.

Update 2026-02-12 (PST) (AI summary of creator comment): Resolution criteria has changed due to Gallup discontinuing presidential approval tracking:
Resolution will now be based on NYTimes polling data instead of Gallup
Target approval rating changed from 24% to 26%
Market resolves TRUE if Trump's approval rating falls to 26% or below at any point during his second term

@Tripping thanks … did not expect the resolution criteria to go offfline! (Was there a market on that?!)
@traders given this news I am changing the resolution criteria to be based on the NYTimes - current approve is 40%, so a bit higher than Gallup is 36% of today - so I will also split the difference and saw the target is now 26% rather than 24% - seem reasonable?
