A recent poll shows low confidence among U.S. adults in the Justice Department and FBI’s fairness during Trump’s second term
Even some Republicans are unsure about these agencies. It seems like Trump and his team have a lot of work to do to rebuild trust after all the criticism they’ve thrown at them. The poll also reveals that many folks have a negative view of some of Trump’s Cabinet picks, although a lot of people don’t really have an opinion on them yet.
One nominee, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., is still pretty popular among Republicans, even though he’s a bit controversial. He’s known for being skeptical about vaccines and comes from a famous political family. His confirmation hearings are still pending, though.
The poll highlights that many Americans are doubtful about the fairness of the Justice Department and the FBI. About half of the people surveyed said they’re not very confident in these agencies acting impartially. Even among Republicans, there’s a split in confidence levels.
It’s interesting to see how the public feels about Trump’s nominees. For example, only about 20% of Americans approve of Pete Hegseth as defense secretary. Many Republicans support him, but there’s still a lot of uncertainty.
Kennedy’s nomination is a bit of a mixed bag. While he’s got a solid fan base among Republicans, overall, people are still warming up to him. The poll shows that about 30% of adults approve of his nomination, but 40% disapprove.
This poll was conducted with a good sample size, so it gives a decent snapshot of public opinion. It’ll be interesting to see how things unfold as Trump’s administration takes shape.
