There is plenty of good news for Donald Trump in CBS’s latest poll. The president’s job approval rating is in positive territory. Most American adults think he’s delivering on the promises he made during the 2024 campaign. Respondents describe both Trump and his set piece policy preferences in positive terms.
There are also warning signs in this survey. Elon Musk is fast becoming a political liability for this administration. In addition, two-thirds of respondents say Trump isn’t devoting enough attention to his pledge to lower consumer prices, and the tariffs on places like Mexico, Canada, and Europe that the president has floated are deeply unpopular. Overall, however, the poll suggests that the ingredients for a sustainable pro-Trump political coalition are available to the president and his movement.
