More Americans Now Say Congress Should Do What Trump Wants, Poll Finds
Thursday, January 10, 2019 at 03:01PM More American voters want Congress to follow President Donald Trump’s lead this year compared to last year, according to a survey released on Jan. 9 by Ramussen, one of the most accurate pollsters in predicting the outcome of the 2016 election.
In a survey gauging the views of likely U.S. voters about the year ahead, 41 percent said that Congress should do more of what Trump wants. That is a 12 percent increase compared to the same time last year, according to Rasmussen.
Meanwhile, the number of Americans who want Trump to do more of what Congress wants has decreased by 8 percent from last year to 48 percent. Twelve percent of the respondents were undecided.
On the day the poll was released, Trump’s re-election campaign manager, Brad Parscale, said the president’s overall job approval rating had reached the highest point since the campaign began tracking it.
