Democrats deeply unsatisfied with US direction under Trump: Poll
Share and Follow

() Nearly all Democrats are dissatisfied with the country’s direction under President Donald Trump, according to a new Gallup poll.

The survey shows Democrats’ satisfaction drastically decreased after Trump returned to office in January, while Republicans’ satisfaction rose.

Less than 1% of Democrats say they are satisfied compared to 76% of Republicans, marking a 75-point gap, the largest Gallup has ever recorded on this measure. By comparison, independents are closer to Democrats, with 25% satisfied.

Overall, 31% of Americans say they are satisfied with the direction of the country, up from 26% last October and more than the 22% average during Biden’s presidency. Still, that number has slipped from 38% in May, which was Trump’s highest mark of his second term.

Republicans were nearly as dissatisfied last July as Democrats are now, with only 1% of Republicans satisfied. Because more Democrats were then expressing satisfaction, though, the partisan gap was only 35 points, with just 36% of Democrats satisfied. Before this year, the difference between parties on this measure had exceeded 70 points just once, in October 2004, ahead of that year’s presidential election.
