Summary
An AP-NORC poll reveals skepticism about Donald Trump’s ability to lower costs like groceries, housing, or healthcare in his first year, with only 2 in 10 Americans expressing strong confidence. Confidence is slightly higher for job creation (3 in 10).
Even among Republicans, less than half are very confident in his ability to address healthcare or food costs.
Health care remains a weak spot, with only 16% of Americans confident he can lower costs.
It takes a little while for mismanagement to negatively affect the economy and the recession to take hold. Patience. He’ll get there.
