A new national poll reveals a stark reality for the Trump administration: as the government shutdown fades from the headlines, the economic pain remains, and voters are placing the blame squarely at the President’s door.

With disapproval ratings hitting new highs and economic pessimism deepening across the board, the survey paints a picture of an electorate that is frustrated, financially squeezed, and increasingly disillusioned with its leaders in Washington.

This disconnect between the government and the governed is a warning sign for the health of our republic, testing the constitutional contract between elected officials and the people they serve.

Fake news media at it again! MAGA for life!

Cameron

So you're saying that you don't have morality or integrity? You approve of a 34 count felon, a constant liar, and a buddy to Epstein and Nutandyahoo? Who owes you and the rest of the people $7000 now ($5000 the promise from DOGE savings and $2000 from tariffs). Someone who hates your ancestors who fought Fascism in the 40's by making those against it "terrorists". I guess we were lied to about Hitler and Fascist Germany??? No but people who support Trump are basically crapping on all those veterans who fought WW2. Sad country full of government indoctrinees

Wynona

So you think it's ok to make up charges for prosecution, not allow testimony, and hand select the jury? I hope you are never falsely accused of a crime.

TR

Isn't that the pot calling the kettle black. That is EXACTLY what the Dems do to Trump constantly.

Pappy N

We are enjoying all the BS heaped on us by Biden for his 4 years and now being further dumped on with Obamacare from HIS reign. Trumps been in office less than a year, give him a chance. Get some treatment for your TDS, pull your head out of your behind and you will feel better about yourself

Dave

I think that all sane people have to give those with TDS a break since there isn't much air in their rectum for them to think logically, and with the crap that packs their ears at all times!

Daniel

You are an ignoant, brain washed idiot

Daniel

Absolutely right

Joseph

This veteran disagrees with you

Joeseff moma

You really need some serious mental help ! You belong in a nut house !

Glenda Ridge

I think we have been given false hope of a better life. I no longer believe it will happen.

Pamela

You do realize it takes time and some inconvience to change anything but especially with the hate and judicial system jumping in over reaching their positions a planned Saratoga of any attempts made by President Trump to improve our Countries Crisis any decision the BS over adding Ballroom no cost to We the People neither is a deranged ideology you support.
It's not just the President theCongress is the money managers which has our deficit $3.7 Triilion in debt. Civics obviously lacking in Academia.

Fang747

The nation's debt is about 14 trillion and it didn't get there by itself or under 1 president. The Biden administration almost doubled the national debt. USDebt.com study for yourself. It will clearly show the financial hit of Biden letting the illegals in. The cost of shutting down oil exploration and closing pipelines. The cost of the pallets of cash given to the middle east and Ukraine. Trump didn't do that but he is stuck trying to fix it.

Fang747

The US total debt is at 105 trillion and 38 trillion and spinning out of orbit. We can't afford political parties.

You are an anti-American communist liberal who hates America and her citizens!

You are either delusional, brainwashed, or misled. I cannot change your thinking, but I wish you would engage in research for enlightenment.

Geoffrey

This is a fake news poll to go with all the fake ideas many have of what our country is and is based upon. All one has to do is approve of Trumps agenda on screen 1/21 and no further questions/screens appear! It is all too painly obvious they have greatly cut back on civics classes in our school system which people in my group had to take from grades 7 through 12. Although I was a democrat most of my adult life, I have to say Ronald Reagan was correct when he said authoritarian government would enter in from leftist politics and what better way to assist in that effort by removing Civics from the curriculum. I am also amazed at so many basic definitions of words being changed by those on the left to use them as weapons against people they do not like, when the definitions most of us learned fit those individuals like a glove. But again, changing definitions has been yet but another tactic that the left has used repeatedly throughout history. I hate to see what kind of country these social media addicts will create for themselves.

Henry

Every president does good and bad. Trump is house cleaning and people dont like the truth nor their dirty laundry exposed. Its never easy doing the right thing, and yes he's made mistakes and will make more im sure but he's also the only one who's trying to put the USA back on track.

He is doing exactly what he should be doing. The demoraps and Biden/Harris nearly destroyed the USA – There are 20 million illegals in this country and they need to be deported = every one of them.

Lynn Benbrook

It's hard to correct screwups that occured under Obama and his dummy for 12 years in only one year !!

Raymonda Tasker

The problem lies in the American mindset. They expect immediate results. The economy can not change overnight!

CR SPRINGER

With the mess he was left with, he is doing the best job he can.

Mary

President Trump inherited a terrible mess from Biden. Couldn’t be rectified overnight. He’s on the right track, but it’s a looong journey.

Doris Eckhart

President Trump is doing everything in his power to help bring prices down he is doing is better for each and every American citizen.
God only knows where gas, egg, house, insurance, etc. prices would be if Harris would be our President. We all know that Biden was the puppet on the string and Harris and most likely Obama were running the USA into the ground with the open border policies and the reckless spending that they were doing to give illegal immigrants free housing, medical, food, etc

Blazeracer57

Obviously the people who claim that President Trump is a fascist, has absolutely no clue exactly what a fascist is. President Trump's approval rating is tanking because he is not sustaining his campaign promises. His billionaire buddies are doing just great, but the rest of us Joe blows citizens are working paycheck to paycheck. Barely making ends meet. When do we get a break? When does the middle and upper class get a break? We're paying for everybody.

He inherited a nightmare, the highest inflation in decades called Bionomics. Who would have thought there was golden eggs in a chicken. Bringing back preBiden era costs would be an historical first!

Rick

I continue to support Pres. Trump! I am disappointed that the economy hasn’t recovered yet but Roam wasn’t built in a day. Pres. Trump hasn’t been in office for a year and he’s not God. There isn’t any human being alive that could straighten out the government mess in this amount of time.

Donald J. Trump is doing Exactly what he was Elected to do. Return The government TO THE PEOPLE! Our Governors are Supposed To Serve The People, NOT THEMSELVES!

Retired Jarhead

Public displays of acute and debilitating TDS are tough to watch…or read. As an 80 year old retired Marine and veteran of Vietnam, I disagree with the writer regarding her comments on veterans.

I also pride myself in looking at more than fake media headlines and democrat propaganda for my news. The "34 felonies" were and idiotic and asinine attempt a political assassination by the left. There were no crimes and no justice in any of the proceedings. Trump is doing a great job for America.

A voice of reason. Thank you!

Give it some time to work out. Biden left a mess to clean up. Cannot clean up overnight

Can’t believe the price of groceries, DT needs to look at what we have to pay for ground meat!!!

As a retired individual with a fixed income, I am seeing less pressure from daily expenses. Trump and the GOP Congress have made some good moves that have lowered inflation and made life more enjoyable.

Pure Bullshit

Jeff

We live in a society that is addicted to 'immediate gratification'. It will take a little more than 10 months to remedy the damage done by the Biden-Sotero cabal.

Don OConnor

The liberal Dems caused the entire shutdown, but the liberal press did all they could to blame Trump. Free health for illegals, nonsense.

Kay Hall

Your survey is obviously spammed for b negative votes. Too bad your readers don't remember the damage done in the last four years.

I am sick of all the lies and the domestic foreign TERRORISTS behind the Terrorists democratic party of LIARA and I mean there middle name is lies along with the media and all the immigrants who have move here . They all hate our country Trump and the true American people who are the ones who deserve to be here. As for the younger generation since 9/11 they have been indoctrinated by the terrorist in our schools The Muslim and every other immigrant terrorist traitor . Our country is in DANGER.

Jane Mann

We now have the most corrupt, Congress and Supreme Court in this nation’s history.

Bob

keep up the good work Trump

robert green

there people living on 1100 dollars a month no food stamps pays out 900 in bills and need help

mark hamelink sr

I think Trump is doing a great job! The problem is the lying mainstream news is working overtime convincing folks otherwise.

Robery

Hasnt even been in office 12 months really ? Find something else to yabber about this stuff is foolish

Fang747

The news is always biased. That sells click bait and news blogs. Yet lack8ng is the national attention of Trump securing 1 trillion in investments in the US from Saudie Arabia over next few years. I watched the live feed on utube where the announcement was made. That's just 1 country and 1 year in office.

Fang747

What's not being addressed is the unchecked insurance hikes under Medicare. An 2.8% cola doesn't cover the over inflated costs. This year the medicare part B will eat 80% of the cola raise. Other non medical 8nsurances will wipe out what's left. Digging in last years and the year before that allocation will be taxes, food, medicine, and basic necessities. Borrowing from social security is the US Treasury using bonds to secure those loans. Using these amounts for years before the bill comes due.

Paco

Experience: 25 years in executive leadership positions in Washinton, DC with politicians, military and civilian. Trumps agenda Topics are good. Bidens allowing millions of immigrants is a negative. Media/Congress should look into Why?
Trumps management/leadership style is dangerous. He carried over his private sector bullying from his wealth and successful business he directed. Those he insults personally will retaliate at the right time. It will happen in time
Caveat Emptor

Aline Keller

President Trump is pulling our Country from the brink of a financial disaster from the last four years under Biden and his handlers! I appreciate Trumps raw talk as he doesn't sugar coat his words when he speaks. We all know he's not doing this for money or fame…but to save our Country for generations to come!

At a Glance: The Voter Verdict

  • The Economy: A staggering 76% of voters view the economy negatively, worse than at the end of the Biden presidency.
  • The Blame: Voters blame President Trump over Joe Biden by a 2-to-1 margin for current economic conditions.
  • The Cost of Living: Large majorities say costs for groceries, utilities, healthcare, and housing have gone up this year.
  • The Shutdown Fallout: The recent government shutdown damaged the standing of both parties, with Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer seeing a massive drop in favorability.
  • The Constitutional Issue: A crisis of representation. With roughly 6 in 10 voters saying leaders in Washington “don’t care about people like them,” the fundamental link between the government and the people is fraying.

‘Hurt Rather Than Helped’

The most damaging finding for the White House is personal. By a 31-point margin, voters say President Trump’s economic policies have “hurt rather than helped” their families.

This is a dramatic reversal from his first term and mirrors the sentiment that plagued the end of the Biden presidency.

The pain is widespread. 85% of voters say grocery costs have risen this year, with 60% saying they increased “a lot.” Similar majorities report higher costs for utilities, healthcare, and housing.

Shoppers looking at high prices in a grocery store aisle

This economic anxiety has driven President Trump’s overall job approval down to 41%, with 58% disapproving – numbers not seen since the lowest points of his first term. Notably, disapproval has hit record highs among some of his core constituencies, including men and white voters without a college degree.

The Shutdown’s Political Toll

The recent government shutdown, while now over, has left deep political scars.

While Republicans hoped the standoff over spending would energize their base, the poll shows it was a political loser for everyone. Nearly two-thirds of voters disapproved of how the President, Congressional Republicans, and Congressional Democrats handled the crisis.

The biggest casualty appears to be Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, whose favorability has plummeted to a record low of 22%, with even Democrats souring on his leadership. This suggests that the public saw the shutdown not as a principled stand, but as a failure of governance.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer speaking

A Constitutional Crisis of Confidence

Perhaps the most alarming finding in the poll goes beyond partisan politics. It points to a systemic loss of faith in the institutions of government itself.

Two-thirds of voters express concern that Congress and the Supreme Court are failing in their constitutional duty to provide checks and balances, giving too much power to the President. Conversely, nearly half worry the judiciary is obstructing the President’s constitutional authority.

“The electorate believes the different branches of government are failing to live up to their constitutional obligations… This is not just about high prices; it’s about a loss of faith in the system itself.”

And in a damning verdict on the concept of representative democracy, roughly 60% of voters say that President Trump, Congressional Democrats, and Congressional Republicans simply “don’t care about people like them.”

This profound alienation is the true danger. When the people no longer believe their government represents their interests or respects the Constitution, the foundation of the republic begins to crack.
