Donald Trump ran his 2024 campaign on a very simple promise: he was going to fix it all, and he alone had the power to do it. Fix immigration. Fix America’s standing in the world. And certainly, perhaps most importantly, fix the price of eggs. Fourteen months into his nightmarish second term, a new NBC poll has delivered America’s verdict on the promise, and it’s about as flattering as you’d expect.
The irony would be delectable to most people if it weren’t so expensive and critical to people’s livelihoods. The headline numbers are grim for the White House. Trump’s overall job approval sits at 44%, with 54% of voters disapproving of his performance.
