More Americans now feel that former President Donald Trump's tenure should be regarded as a success, which is perhaps one of the more stunning revelations—at least according to the political rhetoric of Democrats and the mainstream media in recent years.

Americans view Biden's administration negatively, contrasting with positive opinions of Trump's presidency according to a recent Rasmussen Reports study. 58% see Biden as unsuccessful, with 40% labeling it a complete failure, while 56% praised Trump's performance.

These polls mostly elicited answers along political party lines, as one would anticipate. While the majority of Democrats felt that Biden's term has been largely favorable and that Trump's tenure in office has been terrible, the majority of Republicans considered that Trump's administration has been successful and Biden's presidency a catastrophe. The most illuminating finding concerned those who did not identify as either Democrats or Republicans. Of this group, 53% said that Trump's administration had been successful, compared to only 34% who said that Biden had been "successful so far."

When Trump was in power, most Americans relished the comparative normalcy of American life, despite the extreme and twisted world the Democrats are attempting to construct. For instance, most people are not fond of the many murders and carjackings that have afflicted the nation since January 20, 2021. In addition, the majority of people think that men should not be competing against women in sports, that affordable groceries are a good thing, that there should not be a record number of illegal immigrants entering the country, and that men should not be involved in foreign wars that do not endanger national security.

These survey findings do not really surprise me, objectively speaking. Things were going really well in the US till the COVID-19 outbreak ruined his administration. The economy was thriving, the stock market had reached all-time highs, illegal immigration was under control, Trump had kept many of his campaign promises, and the unemployment rate was steadily declining. Despite attempts to undermine Trump's leadership, many believed that all Americans, regardless of color, gender, or belief, were living in a prosperous period in the nation.
