Recent Polls Are Highly Critical Surrounding Trump's 'One Big Beautiful Bill'

President Donald Trump currently seems disinterested in engaging Congress, often appearing like he would prefer not to engage with the legislative branch at all. Despite numerous attempts to consolidate power and the compliance of congressional Republicans, specific legislative actions still require congressional approval, notably the extension of his 2017 tax reductions. However, these efforts face significant opposition. Recent surveys reveal that Trump's proposed “One Big Beautiful Bill,” recently passed by the House, has garnered disapproval from approximately 55% of Americans, making it one of the least popular legislative initiatives in decades. Professor Chris Warshaw's analysis indicates this bill holds a 24-point disapproval rating. This contrasts starkly with several successful initiatives from President Biden, which maintained popular support. Voter sentiments indicate skepticism towards the bill, perceiving it as preferential to the wealthy, and opposition is particularly pronounced among independents and moderate Republicans. Given the current polling landscape, Republicans may need to reevaluate the political ramifications of pursuing this contentious legislation.
