President Trump’s return speech to Congress got overwhelming approval from American viewers, despite Democrat criticism.
Key Facts:
- A CBS News/YouGov poll showed 76% approval for Trump’s congressional address.
- 68% called the speech “hopeful,” and majorities described it as “presidential” and “unifying.”
- Over two-thirds said Trump has a clear plan to address inflation.
- More than 75% supported Trump’s stance on immigration and cutting government waste.
- Over 75% backed Speaker Mike Johnson’s (R-LA) ordering the Sergeant at Arms to eject the unruly Rep.
The Rest of The Story
To the surprise of those in the media and on the left, this approval came from viewers across several issues, from inflation to border security.
Even Trump’s approach to sensitive international topics, such as Ukraine and Russia, found approval with nearly a quarter of the audience, despite heavy criticism in the mainstream media.
Interestingly, this approval came from viewers who were not overwhelmingly Republican.
Only 51 percent of those surveyed identified as Republicans.
While Democrats continue to embarrass themselves and throw tantrums on MSNBC and CNN, Americans who tuned in tonight approve of President Trump’s speech by an overwhelming +53% margin (!!)

Commentary
This disconnect highlights a broader issue for Democrats.
While Democrats label Trump’s address as divisive and controversial, the American people overwhelmingly disagree.
A stunning 76% approval rating is incredibly rare in today’s deeply divided nation.
When was the last time more than three-quarters of Americans agreed about anything?
This disconnect highlights a broader issue for Democrats: voters prefer practical solutions over political rhetoric.
Democrats ignore or downplay Trump’s key issues—such as inflation, government waste, and border security—at their own risk.
Instead of engaging with what Americans care about, Democrats criticize and label Trump’s speech as divisive.
This speech, however, clearly resonated with the public.
Trump’s speech last night was a grand slam home run, and there’s no other way to describe it.
According to a @CBSNews poll, it won viewer approval by a 76-23 margin.

Democrats’ ongoing inability to adjust their approach guarantees ongoing electoral struggles.
Many Americans will not mind seeing Democrats struggle if they continue their current course.
The Bottom Line
Americans overwhelmingly approved of Trump’s congressional address.
The speech demonstrated a sharp divide between Democrat lawmakers and the American people.
Trump’s direct approach resonates with voters seeking practical solutions.
Democrats who fail to align with these concerns may continue facing electoral losses.
