What They Told Us: Reviewing Last Week’s Key Polls
In surveys last week, this is what America told Rasmussen Reports:
- President Trump ended the polling week on Friday with a daily job approval of 51%.
- Six years after he first said it, most voters still agree with President Donald Trump’s harshest condemnation of the news media.
- By a 13-point margin, more voters approve than disapprove of President Donald’s Trump policy of removing transgender people from the U.S. military.
- Two-thirds of voters support President Donald Trump’s order that federal employees return to their offices, ending the work-from-home arrangements that have prevailed since the COVID-19 pandemic began nearly five years ago.
- An election integrity measure favored by President Donald Trump is also overwhelmingly popular with voters.
- After the Trump administration moved swiftly to put tariffs on foreign goods, voters are divided over the policy, but most agree that Donald Trump is more aggressive on trade issues than most of his predecessors.
- The Kansas City Chiefs are favored to beat the Philadelphia Eagles in Sunday’s Super Bowl, but many fans believe accusations that the NFL has been “rigging” the outcomes of games.
- In what may be an important signal of economic confidence, more Americans now expect stock prices to increase than at any time since 2018.
- Forty-six percent (46%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.
