The Trump Administration, January 2025

NPR/PBS News/Marist Poll

With days until President-elect Donald Trump takes the Oath of Office, Americans are divided about Trump’s proposed mass deportations of undocumented immigrants. However, more than six in ten Americans disapprove of Trump pardoning those convicted in the January 6, 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol. Americans also have high expectations for Trump on the economic front. While many Americans feel the current economy is not working well for them, residents nationally have grown more optimistic about the future of their own finances. In fact, the proportion of Americans with an optimistic view of their financial picture is the highest in over a decade. And as President Joe Biden prepares to leave office, he does so with a job approval rating in the low 40s and tarnished impressions of his legacy.
