Summary

A CBS News poll shows Donald Trump starts his transition with widespread approval from Republicans and net-positive ratings from Americans for his Cabinet picks, including Marco Rubio as Secretary of State.

Many expect his administration to lower grocery prices, a priority for voters amid lingering inflation concerns.

While Republicans are optimistic about the economy and America’s future, most Democrats remain apprehensive, though fewer feel motivated to oppose Trump compared to 2016.

The poll also highlights renewed GOP confidence in U.S. elections and a strong preference for increased presidential power for Trump this term.

      From this poll, a majority are optimistic on the economy and that Trump will bring down prices, and also favor his tariffs and deporting “all” immigrants here illegally. They seem to have no idea what they are even saying.
