Mood in the USA
The Americans are so satisfied with Donald Trump’s work
Since January 20, 2025, Donald Trump has been president in the Oval Office for the second time. Regular surveys show how much approval and rejection he experiences at home.
One or more surveys on the question appear almost every day whether Trump does a good job in the eyes of the Americans or not. Not so easy to keep an overview. For a better overview, this regularly determines an average value from the latest surveys:

As already mentioned: new polls come out almost every day, some of the same opinion research institute. A question of all adults is only under registered voters (“Registered Voters”) or people who are classified as likely voters (“Likely voters”). The size of the samples also fluctuates, and there is always a statistical blurring. Some surveys are commissioned by media, some of the party -related organizations. The results of the individual surveys partly diverge with regard to the consent and rejection. The diagram below shows how big the scatter is in the survey results and how the trend was last:

The data show: After the inauguration, the approval values for Donald Trump have dropped quickly, but have since been around at the level achieved without major fluctuations. And when evaluating his work there were always quite close together. The above all seems to be a question of political perspective. Republican opinion researcher Frank Luntz, in the meantime, in the falling approval values, but believes that the basic way that Trump takes is positively rated. The American political scientist Jack A. Goldstone assumes that many Americans are having Trump badly that he experiment with drastic tariffs instead of reducing consumer prices as promised.
Another question is whether the president himself attaches a special meaning to the surveys. He does not have to face a re -election. According to the constitution, he should not strive for further term – even if he already flirted with it.
