A new USA TODAY/Suffolk University poll has found that 50 percent of Americans consider President Donald Trump to be a failure -- but his supporters are not buying it.
In fact, the poll not only shows that half the country thinks Trump had a failed presidency, but even bigger majorities are opposed to two high-profile actions he's reportedly considering taking in the waning days of his presidency.
"Americans overwhelmingly say issuing a preemptive pardon for himself would be an abuse of presidential power, and an even bigger majority, including most Republicans, say he should attend President-elect Joe Biden's inauguration to demonstrate the peaceful transfer of power," writes USA Today.
Despite this, Trump supporters are still in deep denial about the unpopularity of the man who lost the 2020 presidential election by more than 7 million votes.
Check out some reactions to the poll below.
The "glass half full" news media never miss a chance to attack the current president, and never will do so. Can't they even be kind to Mr. Trump at Christmastime? I guess that's just too much to ask. They're just plain evil. — James Banzer (@jjbanzer) December 24, 2020
With all Media hate, disrespect and intolerance for America? Trump is 'flying high' in Freedom's Breeze! The only failure would be failure to deal with America's Traitors in plain sight. — Brian A Russell (@britektire) December 24, 2020
And 79% of Americans see our media as traitors — President elect Louis Vigo, Phd (@louisvigo) December 24, 2020
I think he will be judged as one of the best. He saved us from Hillary. Talk about a mess, she would have been awful. I'm afraid that Ahab and Jezebel will be trouble. They are for ID politics They should choose people that are qualified, not b/c of skin or sexual preference. — Alpha Centauri (@edbailey1957) December 24, 2020
