Most American voters say the United States is worse off than it was a year ago and believe President Trump is focused on the wrong priorities, according to a new New York Times/Siena College poll.

In the survey, 49 percent of voters said the country is worse off than when Trump began his second term, compared with 32 percent who said it is better. A majority, 57 percent, said the president is focused on the wrong issues. Trump's overall job approval stood at 40 percent, while 56 percent disapproved. Only 42 percent of respondents described his first year in office as a success.
