Trump gloats after ripping up world order - but many Americans are not impressed

Contributing sentiments towards policy:

88% : According to Trump, everything is going very smoothly.
54% : It is true that Trump won the popular vote and carried all seven of the battleground states last November.
47% : As Trump was speaking about restoring jobs, global markets were tanking for the second day in a row in response to his actions.
45% : With a cabinet consisting of largely MAGA loyalists and with the Republican Party now all but entirely in his grip, Trump has been able to put in place a series of hardline policies that have broken all precedent and led many to fear America is heading for a constitutional crisis.
36% : "Our country is on the verge of a comeback the likes of which the world has never witnessed, and perhaps will never witness again," Trump said.
30% : The truth of the matter is, 43 days into his presidency Trump is overseeing a series of actions that are highly divisive and controversial.
30% : Thousands of federal workers have been fired in a chaotic attack that has left many vital roles unfilled, Trump appears determined to break the Western alliance that has kept the peace - more or less - in Europe since the end of World War II, and he has sided with Russia and Vladimir Putin over Ukraine and its leader Volodymyr Zelensky.
30% : And while he claimed his actions had silenced "unelected bureaucrats", Trump apparently found no irony in the fact he has placed the world's richest man - the unelected Elon Musk - in charge of his so-called efficiency department.
27% : " Why then did Trump spend so much attacking Democrats - even though Republicans control the White House, Senate and House of Representatives - and in particular his predecessor, Joe Biden?
27% : A recent poll for PBS found as many as 56 per cent of people, including 65 per cent of independents, think Trump is rushing to make changes without considering their impact.
26% : Yet public polls suggest a different truth, suggesting a country in which many are scared and fearful and believe the economy is going to get worse and not better. Does Trump ever listen to such people and would it make any difference if he did?
