The narrative pushed by Democrats about President Donald Trump losing support is about as accurate as a weather forecast predicting a dusting of snow in a blizzard. The latest findings from a top pollster shed more light on the realities of public sentiment, confirming that Trump’s base remains as solid as concrete, despite the concerted efforts of the left to paint a different picture. Quantus Insights, a powerhouse in polling that has earned its stripes as the most precise in the lead-up to the 2024 election, shows that voters are still on board with Trump’s policies and departing from the dizzying antics of the Biden-Harris agenda.
A recent survey of 1,000 registered voters revealed that 51% of Americans approve of Trump’s job performance, while only 45% expressed discontent. When it comes to his handling of illegal immigration—a cornerstone of Trump’s campaign—things are even rosier, with a breathtaking 58% approval for the border enforcement efforts led by White House czar Tom Homan and Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem. The love for stronger immigration policies is resonating with the public, which is likely making the Democrats question their containment strategies (or lack thereof) regarding illegal immigration.
In a twist that would make any Hollywood scriptwriter envious, this support isn’t confined to just Republicans. The bipartisan backing for tougher immigration policies was on clear display with the passage of the Laken Riley Act, which makes it easier to detain and deport criminal illegal immigrants. Strangely enough, 46 Democrats opted to endorse the law, which can only make one wonder how many clenched jaws and squirming tempers were involved in that vote. Perhaps even they realize that voters want action, not just more hot air.
Turning to the economic front, it appears the president is still cruising along the high road of public opinion, with 49% expressing confidence in his leadership steering the nation toward a brighter financial future. The recent initiatives coming from the newly created U.S. Department of Government Efficiency, with advice from the likes of Elon Musk, have been snipping away at government waste faster than a pair of toddler scissors in the hands of an eager kindergartner. This success has led Trump to propose creative ideas like DOGE dividends for Americans, proving once again that his mind never wanders far from innovative solutions even amid tight fiscal flexing.

Compared to the bleak approval ratings of the Biden-Harris administration, Trump’s supporters are finding much to celebrate. Fully half of poll participants believe that the nation is on a more favorable trajectory since Trump took the reins last November. If he were to face off against the Democrat starlets of 2028, including the likes of Kamala Harris, things are looking promising for the Republican. Should the election occur with Harris, Trump still holds an edge with 52% preferring him over Harris’s 46%.
In the grander scheme of things, approval for the Democratic Party has sunk to an eye-watering low of 36%, leaving ambitious 2028 candidates like California Governor Gavin Newsom scrambling to maintain relevance. Newsom, no stranger to throwing his hat into the ring, recently unabashedly announced plans to start a podcast aimed at having frank talks with MAGA supporters. Meanwhile, Harris may be contemplating a memoir but faces a hard choice: try for the White House again or snatch the governor’s seat in California. The chaos and intrigue within the Democrat ranks offer little solace as they find themselves trying to stitch together a party bruised by disapproval and the undeniable charm of Trump’s resilience.
