en months into his second term, President Donald Trump continues to claim that everything is going “beautifully.” But while he paints a picture of prosperity and stability, the latest national surveys suggest many Americans feel quite the opposite.
A new CNN/SSRS poll, conducted between October 27 and 30 among 1,245 adults, offers a snapshot of a nation uneasy about its direction. The numbers reveal frustration over the economy, anxiety about democracy, and disapproval of the president’s approach to leadership
The Economy and Cost of Living Dominate Concerns
The poll found that 47% of respondents named the economy and cost of living as their top concern, more than any other issue. Inflation, high grocery prices, and rent costs continue to weigh heavily on households.
The state of U.S. democracy came second, cited by 26% of respondents — a sharp sign that Americans are increasingly worried about political division and government gridlock.
Surprisingly, despite Trump’s long-standing focus on immigration, only 10% of those surveyed identified it as their primary concern.Continue reading…

Another striking finding: 61% of Americans believe Trump has gone too far in using his presidential powers.
This view appears to stem from a series of controversial moves, including the use of executive orders, National Guard deployments, and military actions abroad taken without direct congressional approval.
The survey suggests that many voters are uneasy about the president’s tendency to act unilaterally — a sentiment that could influence the outcome of the upcoming midterm elections.
Midterms Could Be a Referendum on Trump
Looking ahead, the poll shows that Trump remains a polarizing figure on the ballot.
- 41% of voters say they plan to vote in the midterms to oppose Trump’s agenda.
- 21% say they’ll vote to support him.
- The rest say Trump’s presence in the White House won’t affect their vote either way.Continue reading…
- These numbers indicate that dissatisfaction with the president could shape congressional races, particularly in key battleground states where voters are frustrated with rising costs and political instability.
The President Dismisses the Polls
In true Trump fashion, the president has brushed off the findings, dismissing them as “fake” and accusing the media of bias.
“So many Fake Polls are being shown by the Radical Left Media, all slanted heavily toward Democrats,” Trump wrote on Truth Social, his social media platform. “In the Fair Polls, I have the Best Numbers I’ve ever had — and why shouldn’t I? I ended eight wars, created the greatest economy in our history, kept prices and taxes low, and am setting records for the future U.S.A. Fake News will never change, but as I look around the Oval Office, I remind myself — I’m still here.”
Despite his defiant tone, pollsters say the data points to a growing divide between the president’s perception of his success and how most Americans feel day to day.
