Donald Trump, Approval Rating
Digest more
President Donald Trump repeatedly claimed during the 2024 presidential campaign that the United States had gone to “hell” under then-President Joe Biden. A new poll suggests the message may be backfiring.
Large majorities of the public want the Supreme Court to rule against Trump's tariffs and against his attempt to fire Lisa Cook from the Federal Reserve.
Control of Greenland is an unpopular issue for Trump. A recent Pew Research Center poll found that about 6 in 10 U.S. adults strongly or somewhat opposed the U.S. taking over Greenland, as Trump has proposed. Republicans were split on the issue: about 4 in 10 favored a takeover, but about one-third were opposed. About one-quarter were uncertain.
The poll found that 52% of voters approve of Trump’s handling of border security overall, which is up 1 point from 51% in December, but down from a record high of 57% approval in September. Currently, 44% approve of Trump’s overall job performance, while 56% disapprove. Those are the same ratings that the president received in December.
