He cited lower courts blocking Trump policies, the Supreme Court’s recent decision to expedite a hearing on the legality of the president’s tariffs, Congress’ enactment of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act and Mr. Trump’s memorable sound bites as examples.
The Trump White House applauded the survey’s conclusions in a statement to The Washington Times.
