The poll indicated that 52% of those surveyed expressed general disappointment with Trump's appointees, while 45% of respondents stated that they generally supported the candidates selected by the president, revealing a divide in public opinion on his choices.

Conducted among 1,000 adult US citizens from March 7-11, the poll took place before the scandalous leaks of a Signal chat involving Trump's senior administration officials, providing insight into public opinion prior to the controversy.

Conducted during Trump's first term in December 2016, the poll revealed that 44% of those sampled were dissatisfied with his team, while 43% expressed support for the candidates appointed by Trump, highlighting a closely divided public opinion.

Trump's approval ratings wane

Many polls are revealing a growing disapproval of the United States public of President Donald Trump, just 3 months into his presidency.

A SSRS poll conducted for CNN published on March 12 indicates that more than half of Americans express dissatisfaction with Donald Trump's handling of the economy, highlighting broader concerns about his economic agenda.

The survey revealed that 56% of respondents disapprove of Trump's economic management, while 61% expressed dissatisfaction with his tariff policies, with his approach to foreign affairs receiving 58% disapproval and 56% of Americans voicing disapproval of his handling of health care policy.

With 42% of CNN/SSRS poll respondents identifying it as their primary issue, the economy remains a top concern for Americans, surpassing other pressing matters such as:

  • The state of US democracy (19%)
  • Immigration (14%)
  • Health care (12%)
  • Foreign policy (3%)
  • Climate change (2%)

A Reuters survey published on March 8, on the other hand, showed a decline in approval ratings of Trump's handling of foreign policy, with 37% of respondents approving of Trump's actions, while a whopping 50% of the 1,174 respondents disapproved of the Trump administration's foreign policy.
