Voters give Trump higher marks on border security, but they disapprove of his handling of several key issues, according to a national NBC News poll.
Majorities of registered voters disapprove of how Donald Trump has handled the issues that defined the first months of a tumultuous midterm election year, as Democrats maintain an advantage in the battle for control of Congress, according to a new national NBC News poll.
Voters give Trump poor marks for his handling of immigration after his administration surged federal agents into the heart of American cities and immigration officers in Minnesota killed two U.S. citizens in January. They are down on his tariffs after the Supreme Court struck down his main tariff program in February and Trump later reimposed some of those levies.
And they don’t like his actions on Iran, with the U.S. now at war with the nation after Trump ordered strikes starting last weekend — strikes a majority say should not have happened.
And this is why the problems in America will not be easily solved. There won’t be a solution in the (if they happen) midterms. There won’t be a solution in the (if it happens) next election.
The problem of 40+% of the population supporting Trump remains. And it will remain, whether it’s the causes of it or the reality of it. And it will not simply fade away.
This large of a population supporting these policies is a crisis of catastrophic proportions.
