Opinions on most of Trump’s personal qualities also are negative, as American voters say:

55 – 40 percent that he is not honest;
55 – 42 percent that he does not have good leadership skills;
53 – 44 percent that he does not care about average Americans;
63 – 33 percent that he is not level-headed;
64 – 32 percent that he is a strong person;
58 – 38 percent that he is intelligent;
60 – 37 percent that he does not share their values.

Trump is doing more to unite the country, 36 percent of American voters say, while 58 percent say he is doing more to divide the nation.

A total of 38 percent of American voters think they can trust Trump to do what is right “almost all of the time” or “most of the time,” and 61 percent think they can trust Trump to do what is right “some of the time” or “hardly ever.”

In contrast, 58 percent of voters think they can trust U.S. courts to do what is right “almost all of the time” or “most of the time,” and 40 percent think they can trust the courts to do what is right “some of the time” or “hardly ever.”

American voters approve 59 – 38 percent of court actions blocking Trump’s executive order on immigration.

Looking at Trump’s immigration proposals, voters oppose:

49 – 43 percent “suspending immigration from ‘terror prone’ regions …;”
53 – 45 percent suspending for 90 days all travel to the U.S. by citizens from seven
Middle Eastern nations;
60 – 37 percent suspending for 120 days immigration of all refugees to the U.S. from any
nation;
68 – 27 percent suspending indefinitely all immigration to the U.S. of Syrian refugees

Voters disapprove 50 – 45 percent of the way the news media has covered Trump.

But voters disapprove 61 – 35 percent of the way Trump talks about the media.

And voters trust the media more than Trump 52 – 37 percent “to tell you the truth about important issues.”

“The media, so demonized by the Trump Administration, is actually a good deal more popular than President Trump,” Malloy said.

Voters approve 47 – 41 percent of the way Trump is handling the economy. Looking at his handling of other issues, voters:

Disapprove 56 – 36 percent of the way he is handling foreign policy;
44 percent approve of his handling of terrorism, as 49 percent disapprove;
Disapprove 58 – 40 percent of the way he is handling immigration issues.
