Most voters don’t think America is living in the “Golden Age” that President Donald Trump promised in his inaugural address, and nearly half say he’s doing a worse job than his predecessor.
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that 27% of Likely Voters believe this is “the Golden Age of America,” while 58% say it’s not and 15% are not sure. In January 2025, 52% of voters agreed with Trump’s declaration that “the Golden Age of America” was beginning. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
