Most Americans say Trump Hasn’t Kept Campaign Promises

Americans are losing faith in US President Donald Trump’s ability to accomplish his campaign promises as he approaches 100 days in office, according to a new poll.

Just 25 percent of Americans believe that Trump “keeps his promises,” down from the 31 percent who thought so in early February, according to the TIME-SurveyMonkey poll conducted last week and released on Tuesday.

Press TVreported that only 26 percent of poll respondents believe Trump accomplished most or almost all of the things he said he would do in his first 100 days, the poll found, down from the 40 percent who expected that he would do so in a similar survey just after his inauguration.

 During the presidential campaign, Trump made a series of bold promises for his first 100 days in the White House, including passing tax reform, boosting infrastructure spending, imposing a travel ban and repealing the Affordable Care Act.

Some of the measures he vowed to accomplish have been stalled in Congress or blocked by federal courts.

“The online survey showed that Trump’s struggles in his first months in office have eroded confidence that he can get things done,” the Time magazine said in its report.

The poll also showed that Trump continues to struggle with his job approval. Only 47 percent in this survey approve of his job as president, while 52 percent disapprove.
