Trump Approval, Handling Of Coronavirus As Biden Takes Office : NPR
As President Trump is set to leave the White House after a tumultuous and chaotic four years, having been the first president to ever be impeached twice and having his last year dominated by a worldwide pandemic, most Americans say he will go down as either below average or one of the worst presidents in U.S. history, according to an NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist survey.
The poll also found Americans are the most pessimistic they have been in decades about the direction of the country. But they have more favorable than unfavorable views of President-elect Joe Biden, how he's handled the transition and whether he will do more to unite than divide the country. As for Biden's inauguration, two-thirds believe it should be held as planned despite security concerns.
