What They Told Us: Reviewing Last Week’s Key Polls

In surveys last week, this is what America told Rasmussen Reports:

  - President Trump ended the polling week on Friday with a daily job approval of 49%.

  - By more than a 3-to-1 margin, voters continue to favor an election integrity measure that President Donald Trump has openly advocated. 

  - A majority of voters think the Trump administration may be trying to conceal evidence of the president’s association with the late Jeffrey Epstein

  - Six months into President Donald Trump’s second term, the two major parties are almost evenly matched in terms of voters’ approval.

  - Voters are now slightly more satisfied with the job Congress is doing than they were two months ago. 

  - Many voters are discontented with America’s health care system, an issue that favors Democrats. 

  - The president earned a monthly job approval of 48% in July, two points down from July.

  - Despite widespread media attention to artificial intelligence (AI), most Americans have rarely or never used it, and fewer than a third of them expect AI to improve life for most people. 

  - Forty-four percent (44%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.
