What They Told Us: Reviewing Last Week’s Key Polls - Week Ending March 23, 2024
In surveys last week, this is what America told Rasmussen Reports:
- President Biden ended the polling week with a daily job approval of 42%.
- Nearly half of voters say they’ve been personally hurt by President Joe Biden’s policies and, by an 11-point margin, think his economic policies are worse than former President Donald Trump’s.
- With less than eight months to go before election day, Republicans have a six-point lead in their battle to maintain their narrow House majority.
- President Joe Biden has expressed regret for calling a Venezuela-born murder suspect “illegal,” but most voters think that’s what such foreign law-breakers should be called.
- By a narrow margin, more voters think former President Donald Trump cares about people like them than say the same of President Joe Biden.
- After major news organizations distorted former President Donald Trump’s comments about a “bloodbath” for the auto industry, a majority of voters now agree with Trump that the news media are “the enemy of the people.”
- The Rasmussen Reports Immigration Index for March increased to 87.6, up more than points from 85.3 in February.
- Controversies about artificial intelligence (AI) keep making headlines, but fewer than one-in-five Americans think their job could be done by a robot.
- Thirty-three percent (33%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.
