It’s a funny old world, isn’t it? You listen to the chatter. You hear the endless nattering on the news. And sometimes, you’d think the sky was perpetually falling. Always gloom. Always doom. But then, you step outside. You talk to your neighbors. You get a feel for what real people are thinking. And often, it’s a whole different tune. A quiet confidence. A sense of things, maybe, just maybe, looking up.
Well, buckle up, because it seems a whole lot of Americans are feeling a change in the wind. A big one. New numbers are out. And they paint a picture that some just won’t want to see. Rasmussen Reports, a name many of you trust, dropped a bombshell. A full 50 percent of voters say America is finally on the right track. Yes, you read that right. Fifty percent.
This isn’t just a blip. This is historic.
From ‘The Post Millennial’ reporting on Rasmussen’s Mark Mitchell:
“In 20 years, the percent of people who say the U.S. is headed in the right direction has never been higher than today.”
Mark Mitchell himself, the pollster at Rasmussen, called it “Uncharted Territory.” He even said, “Never thought I would see it.” He’s been tracking this since 2006. So, he knows a thing or two.
Wait, It Gets Better
Let’s dig into that number a little. Among Republicans, a whopping 75 percent feel good about the nation’s direction. But get this. Nearly a third of Democrats, 31 percent, are also saying things are on the right track. And 45 percent of Independents agree. That’s quite the consensus brewing.
Remember just a short while ago? Under the previous Biden administration, that “right track” number was a dismal 31 percent. That’s a stunning 19-point jump. White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt put it plainly. “There is good news today,” she said. She pointed to record-high consumer confidence. And she highlighted this very poll. Leavitt noted the “stark contrast to what that same polling showed under the previous disastrous administration led by Joe Biden.” Ouch. But facts are facts.
The Optimism is Spreading
And it’s not just Rasmussen singing this tune. The RealClearPolitics average shows 44 percent of Americans now believe the country is on the right track. That’s the highest that average has been since 2009. So, the feeling is real. It’s growing.
President Trump’s own approval numbers are looking strong too. Rasmussen had him at 52 percent approval recently. The RealClearPolitics average? Up to 48 percent. And here’s a number that’ll make some heads spin: An InsiderAdvantage poll, reported by AMAC, showed President Trump with a 60 percent approval rating among Hispanic voters. Sixty percent! That’s a sea change, plain and simple.
Someone Tell The Usual Suspects
Now, you might be wondering why you’re not hearing this trumpeted from every rooftop by the usual media outlets. AMAC.us hit the nail on the head. They noted this polling “stands in stark contrast to the corporate media’s narrative that Trump is out of step with the American public.” Time and again, they paint him as fringe. The data, however, tells a very different story. A story of growing support.
It’s a clear sign that policies rooted in common sense and American values are resonating. Mark Mitchell, the Rasmussen pollster, even had a little advice for the GOP. “I don’t think the Republican Party understands the gravity of the gift which Trump has given them,” he stated. Then he added on X, “Don’t F it up, Republicans.” Sound advice, if you ask me. President Trump himself recently declared, “This is, indeed, THE GOLDEN AGE OF AMERICA!!!” Looks like half the country is starting to agree.
The message from the heartland seems clear. People are feeling a renewed sense of hope. They see a path forward. And they like the direction.
Key Takeaways:
- Record 50% of Americans say Trump has the nation on the right track—a historic high.
- This optimism marks a sharp Biden-era reversal, with Trump gaining broad support, including Hispanics.
- Public sentiment defies media narratives, strongly backing President Trump’s agenda for America.
