Only about half of Republicans say Trump has focused on the right priorities, AP-NORC poll finds

Here’s a 160-word summary of the article:

As Donald Trump enters the early months of his second term, Americans are deeply divided.

A new AP-NORC poll shows about 40% approve of his overall job performance, with immigration being his strongest issue at 46%. Many Republicans support Trump for following through on promises, but some question his foreign policy, especially regarding Ukraine. Democrats overwhelmingly disapprove, with many citing concerns over deportations and tariffs. Some, like Gabriel Antonucci, feel his second term has been more chaotic than expected. Despite some Republican dissatisfaction, about 8 in 10 still view him favorably. Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), led by adviser Elon Musk, is popular among conservatives for its spending cuts. However, approval on trade and the economy remains low, even among Republicans. While his base largely stands by him, others like Democrat Rahsaan Henderson see the coming years as a test of resistance. The political divide appears to be sharpening, with both hope and frustration shaping the national mood.
