President Trump’s policies are winning big with everyday Americans, and even some pollsters can’t hide their shock. A recent clip from Meet the Press showed NBC’s Steve Kornacki stunned as he explained how Trump’s agenda is dominating key issues like immigration, the economy, and government reform. Kornacki admitted that Trump’s tough stance on the border and plans to slash wasteful spending are resonating with voters across the political spectrum. This comes as new polls reveal skyrocketing approval numbers for the president, leaving Democrats scrambling to explain their collapsing support.
Trump’s border crackdown has become a major winner. Over 80% of Americans back his push to deport criminal illegal immigrants, and 76% support closing the border until security measures are fully in place. Even liberal-leaning polls show majority approval for his immigration policies, with voters tired of chaos and crime. The administration’s focus on protecting American jobs through tariffs and renegotiating trade deals also scores high, proving that working-class voters trust Trump to put America first.
Democrats thought their attacks on Trump would stick, but the numbers tell a different story. Trump’s overall approval rating has hit a record high, matching his all-time peak from his first term. Nearly half of Americans now say the country is headed in the right direction—a dramatic shift from the Biden era. Republicans are united behind Trump, with 90% supporting his agenda, while Democrats seem stuck in a spiral of negativity and far-left policies that most voters reject.
The economy is another area where Trump’s common-sense approach is paying off. Gas prices are dropping, groceries are getting cheaper, and jobs are coming back to states hit hard by Biden’s failures. Over 60% of Americans back Trump’s push for reciprocal tariffs to force other countries to play fair, and his plan to drill for American energy is winning support from even some moderate Democrats. This practical focus on kitchen-table issues is leaving Democrats with nothing to offer but complaints.
Elites in the media and Washington still don’t get it. Kornacki’s stunned reaction on live TV says it all—the bubble has burst. Trump’s message of law and order, fiscal responsibility, and putting Americans first is cutting through the noise. While coastal liberals mock his policies, heartland voters are cheering the return of jobs, safety, and common sense. The administration’s rapid-fire executive orders and deals with foreign leaders are proving that action beats talk every time.
The left’s obsession with identity politics is backfiring. Policies like keeping men out of women’s sports and recognizing only two genders have over two-thirds support nationwide. Even in blue states, parents are fed up with radical gender ideology in schools and want Trump’s push to protect kids. At the same time, 65% of voters agree with ending race-based hiring in government, showing most Americans want fairness, not divisive quotas.
Trump’s team is delivering results while Democrats spiral. Vice President JD Vance and Attorney General Pam Bondi are leading the charge to clean up government corruption and waste, with 77% of voters backing a full audit of federal spending. The administration’s moves to freeze foreign aid and renegotiate bad deals are also popular, proving that Trump’s “America First” playbook works. Every day, more voters see the contrast between Trump’s action and the left’s obstruction.
The 2024 election was no fluke—Trump’s momentum is growing. With strong support from independents, suburban moms, and even some traditional Democrats, his agenda has become the people’s agenda. The White House isn’t just winning the policy debate; it’s winning the cultural fight for common sense. As Democrats double down on open borders and big government, Trump is proving that leadership matters. The silent majority is finally being heard, and the Democrats’ radical playbook is collapsing in real time.
