Trump’s polls are an improvement compared to his first term, when he started in negative territory and stayed there for his four -year term.
An average of all most recent national polls indicates that Trump’s approval classifications are slightly above water. However, Trump has seen his number that he had returned to the White House at the end of January, when an average of his polls indicated the president’s approval rating in the low 1950s and his disapproval in the mid -40s.
“A noticeable increase in dissatisfaction can be seen above the handling of President Trump of different issues: from Ukraine to the economy to the federal workforce,” ” Quinnipiac poll Analyst Tim Malloy emphasized in the release of the survey.

The president’s approval classification was under water in nine out of 10 songs that were tested in the Quinnipiac Survey, with his trade in China the only problem in which most respondents gave him a thumb.
And at the top of the heads of Americans, the economyTrump was 41%-54%.
It was the third survey that was held this month, after the CNN survey and a poll by Reuters/Ipsos, to spell problems for Trump about the economy, which was demonstrably the most important issue that increased in the presidential elections of last November.
In his handling of the federal workforce, the president was 40% approval and 55% rejection in the Quinnipiac Survey.
Game On: Early movements in the next race of the White House will start
Trump, through his recently founded Department of Government Efficiency (Doge), is on a mission to revise and reduce the federal government.
Trump called Elon MuskThe world’s richest person and the Chief Executive of Tesla and SpaceX, to steer the organization.
DOGE has implemented federal agencies and ejected what the White House argues was billions of wasteful federal editions. It has also taken a meat hook to the federal workforce, which results in a huge reduction in employees. The movements of DOGE have activated a whole series of lawsuits in response.
Sixty percent of voters who were interrogated in the poll, reject the way of musk and doge with employees who are employed by the federal government, with only 36% approval.
And the release of the survey adds that “54% of voters think that Elon Musk and Doge hurt the country, while 40% think they help the country.”

The CNN survey indicated that more than 6 out of 10 thought that the cutbacks would go too far by Doge and that important federal programs would be closed, with 37% that the cutbacks would not go far enough when eliminating fraud and waste in the government.
It is no surprise that there is a huge partisan gap in the latest polls when it comes to Trump and Doge.
Democrats, with a margin of 96% -2% in the Quinnipiac Survey, gave the president a thumb at the work he does in office, while the Republicans approved with a margin of 89% -9%. Independent voters rejected, 58%-36%.
There was also a large partisan gap about how Musk and Doge perform, with more than three -quarters of the Republicans approve and 96% of the Democrats and more than two -thirds of the rejecting independent.
