One hundred days into his second term, President Donald Trump faces growing public skepticism at home.
According to a recent AP-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research survey of 1,260 adults, nearly twice as many Americans believe Trump is tackling the wrong priorities compared to those who think he's on the right track. Key findings:
- Over 50% rate his performance as poor or terrible.
- 16% call it average.
- 31% see it as great or good.
- 58% disapprove of his policies across economy, immigration, and foreign policy.
- 62% feel the country is heading in the wrong direction.
Only about 30% of respondents expressed surprise at his policy choices—suggesting many expected these early moves in his second term. For young global citizens and business enthusiasts, these figures highlight shifting domestic confidence that could ripple into international markets, trade talks, and global alliances.
As thought leaders and changemakers track these developments, the poll underscores a crucial question: How will a divided public mood shape the next phases of the administration? Stay tuned as we unpack what this means for policy debates at home and across borders.
