Is Trump doing better than Biden? Voters have changed their mind, new poll shows
Transparency shouldn't be controversial.
Full survey:
A month ago, voters told the Harvard CAPS/Harris Poll that President Donald Trump was doing a better job than his predecessor.
But in January, voters have changed their mind, with a majority saying that Trump has done a worse job as president than Joe Biden did, according to the latest survey.
51% of respondents said Trump is doing a worse job than Biden, while 49% said better (-2). In December 2025, it was Trump +6. In February 2025, it was Trump +16.
While Trump has blamed economic conditions on Biden, voters say the current president owns the economy.
More than half -- 53% -- of voters say the economy is worse now than it was under Biden, while 63% said the current state of the economy is mostly due to Trump rather than Biden -- an increase of 11%.
Is this a matter of short attention spans, or do voters value Biden's economy more than Trump's? What is fundamentally different between their two economies? In a few years, do you think public sentiment around Biden's presidency will change?
