President Donald Trump Believes to “tell it as it is” during his Primetime address on Tuesday to a joint session of the congress.
“Tomorrow Night Will Big,” the president praised in a social media post on the eve of his first major speech for the congress during his second presidential administration.
From Trump it is expected to use the address – that Fox News would first report it, will get a theme, “the renewal of the American Dream” – to show his avalanche of activity during his first six weeks in the White House.
“Best opening month of every president in history,” Trump wrote in a social media post last week, showing his performance – Some of them are controversial – since his inauguration of January 20.

However, the last polls indicate that Americans are divided The job he has done so far.
Trump is 45% approval and 49% disapproval in one of those polls, according to a maristic university survey for PBS News and NPR. In addition, a CNN survey, also carried out last week, has carried out the president’s approval rating at 48%, with 52% disapproving.
However, Trump’s approval classifications were above water in others New polls, Including one for CBS News that was also in the field in recent days and was released this weekend.

Because the president is a polarizing and more than life -sized politician, it is no surprise that the latest polls indicate a huge partisan gap about Trump’s performance. The surveys bring to the attention that the vast majority of Democrats give the president down a big thumb, while Republicans overwhelmingly approve the work that he does in office.
While Americans are distributed over Trump’s performance, the approval classifications for his second term are an improvement in relation to The White House.

One reason – Trump nowadays enjoys solid republican support of Rots.
“He never had support at Democrats in the first government, but he also had some problems with Republicans,” noted Daron Shaw, Professor of Politics and President at the University of Texas.
Shaw, who serves as a member of the FOX News decision team and the Republican partner The Fox News surveyemphasized “That is an acute difference between 2017 and 2025. The party has fully solidified behind him.”
During his opening, Trump was moved six weeks ago in the White House with a flurry of executive orders and actions. His movements not only took some of his most important promises of campaign tracks, but also allowed the returning president to bend his executive muscles, quickly made his mark on the federal government, made major cuts on the federal workforce and also arrange some long -term complaints.

The best wildest moments from presidential speeches to the congress
“It has been a flood of the zone every day, often several times a day,” Lee Miringoff, director of the Marist Institute for Public Opinion, told FOX News Digital. “We just see a lot of things happening with little time for the public to digest. The net effect of all this is that there is a feeling of the audience, that some things move a little too fast.”
While an improvement compared to his first term, Trump’s approval classifications in his presidency are lower than all his recent predecessors in the White House.
Shaw noted that neither Trump nor Trump Former President Joe Biden “Started with overwhelming approval. This is not like the wedding travel period that we historically expect that presidents will enjoy … Historical, the other side gives you a little play space when you first come in. That just doesn’t happen anymore.”
The approval classification of Biden fluctuated in the low to the mid -1950s during the first six months of his single term as president, with his disapproval in the upper 30s to the low to mid -40s.
The numbers of Biden, however, fell in a negative area in the late summer and autumn of 2021, in the aftermath of his much criticized handling of the turbulent American exit from Afghanistan, And in the midst of rising inflation and an increase in migrants that cross the US along the southern border of the nation with Mexico.

The approval ratings of Biden remained under water for the rest of his presidency.
“He just got cracky and never recovered,” Shaw said about Biden.
An average of all most recent national polls indicates that Trump’s approval classifications are just 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.

“The honeymoon is over, and he actually rules, and that usually brings down figures,” said Veteran political scientist Wayne Lesperance, the President of New Hampshire based New England College, Fox News Digital told. “I expect that the numbers will continue to slide, because the changes in Washington really begin to influence people’s daily lives.”
Shaw noted that Trump’s “rating on the economy is around minus four, which is 25 points better than Biden. He is above water on immigration. His best issue is now crime. He is plus ten about crime.”
Shaw, however, emphasized that inflation, the issue that Trump helped back in the White House, remains crucial for the political fortunes of the president.
“If the prices remain high, he will have problems,” Shaw warned.
