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 51%.
- A clear majority of American voters believe the goal of U.S. military involvement in the war between Israel and Iran should be limited to taking out the Iranian nuclear threat, rather than trying to topple the regime in Tehran.
- Voters are overwhelmingly concerned about America’s $37 trillion national debt, and few think the so-called “One Big Beautiful Bill” will address the problem.
- Nearly half of voters favor the policy of so-called “sanctuary” states, which restrict state and local officials from cooperating with federal immigration authorities.
- While a plurality of voters support the use of American air power and naval forces against Iran, only a third favor the deployment of U.S. ground troops.
- After two Minnesota lawmakers were shot by a gunman, a majority of voters say they expect further political violence in the months ahead.
- With many parts of the country experiencing a record heat wave, more Americans now think climate change is to blame.
- Perhaps not everybody in America wants to live in Florida, but it’s still at the top of the list.
- Forty-seven percent (47%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the country is heading in the right direction.
