The latest poll reveals a surprising trend: despite the chaos and noise from the left, more than half of voters still give President Trump respectable ratings as he navigates the turbulent waters of his first 100 days in office. Evidently, the resilience of Trump’s popularity, particularly among independent voters, is something the mainstream media seems eager to ignore.
Conducted by Harvard’s Center for American Political Studies along with The Harris Poll and HarrisX, the survey showcases that a solid 48% of registered voters believe Trump is precisely the leader America needs at this moment. Only 46% disapprove of his performance, and a mere 6% remain undecided or ambivalent. It seems a significant portion of the electorate is still on board with the agenda.
Trump’s immigration strategies are notably receiving acclaim, as a staggering 51% of participants approve of his tough stance on border control. Historically, he has been vocal about his plans for mass deportation—an idea that resonates with the American people more than the media would like to admit. A recent bilateral stance with El Salvador’s president against intervening on behalf of an alleged MS-13 member showcases Trump’s firm commitment to crime-free borders.
Moving beyond immigration, Trump continues to score high on reducing government spending, with half of those polled applauding his efforts. The involvement of figures like Elon Musk in facilitating government efficiency drills the point home: this administration is not just about talk but tangible action aimed at reducing financial waste.

On the economy, however, it appears the waters are more turbulent. The approval for Trump’s economic policies, while still hanging around the 43% mark, signals divisions. Nevertheless, a notable 49% of voters agree with his intent to “return America to its values.” Just think about it—more than half of Americans are aligned with a vision that emphasizes classic American values in the face of a rapidly changing societal landscape.
Polls indicate that while inflation remains a primary concern across party lines, a robust majority—three-fourths of respondents—supports the idea of deporting crime-committing illegal immigrants and tightening border security. It’s also worth highlighting that around half favor tariffs on goods from countries like China and Mexico. The evidence shows an electorate ready to back policies that prioritize American jobs and safety over globalist agendas.
Overall, these findings underscore a mixed bag of successes and challenges for Trump as he tackles the issues that matter most to voters. The backdrop of his second term reveals an administration that is not just trying to weather the storm but is actively engaged in shielding the American way of life from an influx of chaos—stemming largely from the policies of the previous administration.
