Few Voters Say Trump’s Second Term Has Made the Country Better, Poll Finds

A majority of voters said that Mr. Trump had focused on the wrong priorities and that they disapproved of his handling of top issues, but the president still enjoys strong support from Republicans.

78% of Republicans say the country is better off than it was a year ago. Now that is TDS.

It might as well read: "78% of Republicans endorse lawless authoritarianism".

The survey also revealed the extent to which Mr. Trump has polarized the nation into its furthest partisan corners, with more voters seeing him as on track to be historically bad or good than merely below or above average. Some 42 percent of voters said he was on track to be one of the worst presidents in American history — and 19 percent said he was headed to be one of the best.

But there is hope...

Overall, only 34 percent of independent voters, who tend to determine who wins elections, approve of the job that Mr. Trump is doing. And twice as many independent voters think the country is worse off now compared with a year ago than better, 52 percent to 24 percent.
