With popularity around 47% began his second term in the White House, according to the Institute Ipsos on behalf of Reuters, which took place on Monday (20.01.2025) and Tuesday (21.01.2025). 47% of Donald Trump’s popularity, according to the first poll following his inauguration as 47th President of the United States, is however higher than it was during the longest of his previous presidential term (2017 – 2021). CORVERSE The poll also shows dissatisfaction with some of his first actions after taking office. 58% of respondents stated that Trump should not award thanks to convicts for the 6 July 2021 attack on the U.S. Capitol, while only 29% approved his interventions in the judicial system. More positive was the response to immigration management, where 46% approved Trump moves. Addressing illegal immigration is an issue that many Americans would like to be the top priority of the new government. About 58% of respondents agreed that the US should “dramaticly reduce the number of immigrants allowed to apply for asylum at the border”. CORVERSE Trump’s return to the White House is likely to cause turbulence in US relations with their partners. However, the results of the poll show little support for plans to impose high tariffs on imported products or for territorial expansion. Only 16% of respondents agreed with Trump’s idea that the US should buy Greenland from Denmark, while Copenhagen made it clear that the largest island in the world is not for sale.
