Trump says he cares for Americans. They think he’s more focused on his wealth, an AP-NORC poll finds

Most Americans think Donald Trump is profiting off the presidency in unethical or illegal ways and is focused more on his wealth than helping people like them, a new AP-NORC poll finds...

6 in 10 U.S. adults believe he is either illegally profiting or doing something unethical but not illegal. Only about 2 in 10 think the Republican president is doing nothing wrong, while a similar share say they don’t know enough to say...

... Independents and Republicans are much less convinced than Democrats that Trump is breaking the law. Only about 3 in 10 independents and about 1 in 10 Republicans say he’s doing something illegal.

Garbage media hit piece. Expect this crap to be on the dying legacy media tonight.

"The AP-NORC poll of 2,140 adults was conducted Sept. 24-28..."

Garbage. This isn’t even an election poll. It’s the usual self-generated poll posing as another reason to launch a hit piece.

Never underestimate the dem voter base. They believe what the media tells them to believe. You only have to listen to their average voter. All Republicans are racist, they only care about the rich.... They spout the talking points like gospel.

Utterly ridiculous. After accumulating enough wealth that financial security is beyond worry it’s something only psychotic misers dwell on.

President Trump has more than enough for a few lifetimes of extravagant habit but chose to give the last years of his life to the nation that let him become that rich.

But as mentioned, too many Democrats have a disconnect with common sense.

This is the story the Democrats and the media have been peddling since Jan 2025. Trump first term he lost half his net worth. Obama and Biden became rich as politicians, Trump was rich and took a hit. Now, they want you to believe, like with the a Russian collusion and insurrection-both setups- that Trump is just profiting.

Let’s do a side by side
Obama=300k net worth before elected= 64 million when left office
About 32 time multiplied.
Trump= 6 billion=midway 2.5 billion= now 6-8 billion.
About 1.2 time multiplied.

Don’t even start me on Nancy Pelosi or Joe Biden, or Barney the communist.

B.S. article. President Trump is a patriot of the highest order, he loves America and he has our back. He’s trying to make a difference in the time he has left anyone who thinks that he wanted the presidency to make money is an idiot.

Sadly, there are all too many posters on Free Republic spreading their own versions of this nonsense.

Ahem... (you know who you are)

A great Pubbie activist I worked with 50 years ago described the phenomenon, “the masses are asses.”

Trump own behavior has caused this mess.

1. Trump is doing more INSIDE TRADING than all of Congress combined

President Donald Trump has completed roughly 28,700 securities trades—averaging 80 to 85 per market day—since the start of his second term in January 2025 through mid-2026, surpassing the approximately 22,200 collective transactions reported by all 535 members of Congress over a similar timeframe. [1, 2, 3]

2. Trump unlike any other President EVER REFUSES TO USE A BLIND TRIST

Donald Trump refused to establish a true blind trust, choosing instead to retain ownership of the Trump Organization and hand over its daily management to his adult sons (Donald Jr. and Eric) along with executive Allen Weisselberg. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]

Anyone care to tell us why Trump refuses to use a blind trust like all previous Presidents ?
