Donald Trump’s second term starts amid public skepticism, as a recent poll reveals his policies face mixed support. Nearly half of Americans view the President-elect unfavorably, and many oppose pardons for Jan. 6 offenders. Economic optimism is tempered by concerns over tariffs and the feasibility of his agenda. Nearly two-thirds of Americans oppose pardons for those convicted in the Jan. 6 Capitol attack, with opinions sharply divided along partisan lines. The public is also evenly split on mass deportation policies, reflecting deep polarization on immigration. Trump retains strong support from white evangelical Christians, rural residents, and non-college-educated white men.
