About 3 in 10 are highly confident in Trump on Cabinet, spending or military oversight: AP-NORC poll
Americans may have elected Donald Trump to a second term in November, but that doesn’t mean they have high confidence in his ability to choose well-qualified people for his Cabinet or effectively manage government spending, the military and the White House.
Summary
An AP-NORC poll reveals low public confidence in President Trump’s ability to appoint qualified Cabinet members, manage spending, and oversee the military in his second term.
About 3 in 10 Americans express high confidence in these areas, while half are "not at all confident."
Republicans show more confidence (6 in 10), but it's less unanimous than Democrats' skepticism (three-quarters express doubt).
Independents remain divided, with most expressing low or moderate confidence in Trump’s leadership abilities across key responsibilities.
