The current narrative from the mainstream media suggests that Donald Trump’s latest poll numbers spell doom for his presidency, but a closer examination reveals they’re just playing a game of fantasy politics. Unsurprisingly, this is the same media apparatus that insisted the Biden-Harris economy was flourishing and Kamala Harris would dominate key swing states. Spoiler alert: those predictions went belly-up faster than a fish out of water. So what’s the real scoop on Trump’s standing with the American people?
According to a recent CBS/YouGov poll, the truth is more nuanced than the media wants to admit. While only 23% of Americans claim to be in a better financial position, an impressive 35% report no change—indicating some folks at least have a steady ship amid turbulent waters. Crucially, 38% of respondents recognize that it’s Biden’s policies leading us deeper into inflationary quicksand, while a mere 34% attempt the acrobatic feat of blaming Trump. Could it be that these blame-shifters are just part of the “Biden was a genius” fan club? Sounds likely.
For those who missed it, here’s what the media omits: 58% of Americans find themselves in the same or improved circumstances under current policies, a solid majority. One can bet it won’t get any airtime on CNN or MSNBC. Instead, they’d rather wallow in crisis narratives and pessimism.
Sure, Trump’s plan might take a bit of time to yield the promised harvest, though he may have been overly ambitious in claiming results from day one. But this gradual approach to recovery mirrors the strategy of Ronald Reagan, who faced similar short-term troubles yet delivered long-term success by prioritizing policies that fostered real economic growth. Manufacturing jobs are making a comeback, signaling a genuine shift toward American economic independence instead of lining the pockets of Wall Street tycoons.

When it comes to immigration—a hot-button issue—Trump is enjoying significant support as well. A solid 53% of Americans favor his tough stance on border security, with an even clearer 58% backing his deportation strategies. Remember when those policies were labeled “racist” and “extreme”? Clearly, it appears the average American isn’t buying the left’s sob story and understands the necessity of secure borders.
Despite the supposed doom and gloom, Trump’s overall approval sits at a surprisingly balanced 50-50—a far cry better than Biden’s numbers since mid-2021. Particularly after many reputable pollsters predicted the outcomes correctly during the last election, it’s difficult to ignore the rising tide of support for Trump’s America-first policies. If anything, the current polls may underreport his genuine backing. The Democrats? They’re still treading water, struggling with historically low approval ratings.
The clock is still ticking on Trump’s presidency, and there’s ample time for his policies to yield results that even the most cynical media outlets will find difficult to dismiss. Trump wields significant political clout to push forward reforms vital for America’s recovery, even if they ruffle the feathers of those who prioritize identity politics over genuine progress. Once again, it seems the Democrats’ worst fears are becoming a reality; Trump’s policies are indeed doing the trick, and the American populace is taking note. This scenario has left liberal strongholds scrambling, which might explain their frantic attempts to derail the narrative.
