A new survey shows that half of the Republicans do not believe that Trump has straight priorities

WASHINGTON (AP) – Many Americans do not agree with President Trump’s aggressive efforts to quickly age him, discover a new survey, and even Republicans are not convinced of an overwhelming majority that his attention was in the right place.

The Americans are likely to say nearThe Associated Press Nork Center for Public Affairs Research.

Moreover, about 4 of every 10 Americans say that Trump was a “terrible” president in his second term, and about 1 out of 10 says he is “poor”. On the contrary, about 3 out of 10 says it was “great or” well “, while just less than 2 out of 10 he says it was” average. “

Most of them were not shocked by the first 100 days of Trump. About 7 out of 10 adults in the United States says that the first few months of Trump’s second state were often what they expected, and about 3 out of 10 say that the actions of the Republican President were often not expected.

But this does not mean that they are happy with how these opening months go.

In reality,Democrats seem more greatWith the reality of Trump’s second term more than before the constitutional oath on January 20. About three quarters of Democrats says Trump focuses on wrong topics and is believed about 7 out of 10 that he was “terrible” president so far. This is an increase from January, when about 6 out of 10 expected to be “terrible”.

“It was one of the longest 100 days I had to sit in,” said Rahman Henderson, a Democrat from California.

“I think the next four years will be a test to see who can resist more than others and continue to challenge everything he is trying to do, because he challenges everything, including the Supreme Court,” henderson, 40, said.

Republicans are largely behind the president, but they are contradictory to what he chose to emphasize. About 7 out of 10 says he was at least a “good” president. But only about a half says he had often had the correct priorities so far, while about a quarter says it was about an equal mixture and that about 1 out of 10 said that Trump had often had wrong priorities.

“He is really doing the things he said he would do,” said Tanner Bergstrom, 29, a Republican of Minnesota. “He does not make a handful of promises and entering the office and nothing happens … I really like it. Even if some things that I do not agree with, what he did still do is he will do.”

It seems that those who were surprised by Trump’s first few months were preparing. People who say Trump’s actions were not what they expected – and most of them are Democrats and independents – are more likely to say that Trump was often the wrong priorities and that he was a poor or terrible president, compared to the people who often expected his actions.

About 4 out of 10 approves how Trump generally treats the presidency.The issue of immigration is a relative force.According to the survey, 46 % of adults correspond to his dealings with the case, which is slightly higher than his approval in general. But there are also indications of thisForeign policyandCommercial negotiationsAnd the economyIt can prove a problem because it aims to prove that his approach will benefit the country.

Trump’s approval of these issues is much lower than they are in immigration. About 4 out of 10 adults in the United States agree to how to deal with each of them. Republicans are unlikely to agree to Trump’s approach to trade and economics.

There are additional signals that some of Trump’s supporters may not feel overwhelmed to perform it yet. The share of the Republicans, who say it was at least a “good” president, has decreased about 10 percentage points since January. It has also grown more vulnerable to saying that Trump would be either “poor” or “terrible”, although only 16 % prescribe the first few months in this way.

Republican Stephanie Melnik, 45, from Tennessee, supports Trump’s handling of the presidency on a broader scale, but she said that she does not agree to his dealings with foreign affairs,Especially in the war in Ukraine. Melnyk migrated from Ukraine and said Trump “is trying to make a quick solution that will not last” and that Russian President Vladimir Putin “is not reliable.”

Melnyk, who voted in favor of Trump to his locations on immigration, said she hopes the president will remain in a text.

“It seems that it can be very concession, and it seems that my road or highway,” Melis said. “It is like, my shout. You are not 12.”

It is common, however, that the president’s position is at his best before he took office and the start of the ruling. Trump continues to obtain high approval from Republicans.

About 4 out of 10 Americans have a positive opinion in Trump, almost in line with his approval number. Among the Republicans, the number is about twice: about 8 out of 10 Republicans who have a positive vision for the president, and the same share agrees to how to deal with the presidency. About a third of us adults have a positive opinion from the Vice President JD Vance, including about 7 out of 10 Republicans.

These Republicans, who were specially fond of the efforts made to expand the size of the federal government led by the external billionaire of Chancellor Elon Musk and the Trump initiative to reduce costs, the Ministry of Government efficiency, known as Dog.

“Generally, I must say I am happy headed by Trump,” said Matthew Spencer, 30, a Republican of Texas. “I think the Ministry of Governmental efficiency has taken great steps to reduce our spending, and I also agree with the situation of America first. I agree on the policies that he set as much as protecting the borders and America that stands for itself again as definitions.”

“We are only three months, but so far, very good,” said Carlos Guevara, 46, who lives in Florida. Guevara, a Republican, said that Duji was “great success” and on the customs tariff, and although there may be short -term pain, “if that encourages companies to start manufacturing here … it will be washed over time.”

Democrats have a more cruel look at the economy than before Trump took office. The survey also found that the vast majority of Democrats believed to be “very far” from deportations and definitions.

Gabriel Antonucci, 26, a democratic, recently moved to South Carolina, said that the second period of Trump’s state is “absurd” than expected.

Antonucci said: “It really seems that he is doing his best to make wrong decisions,” Antonucci said. “Perhaps things will be worse in four years than they are now.”
