Majority of Americans Approve of Trump's Transition Plans, Poll Shows

Recent polling indicates that Donald Trump has received significant approval for his presidential transition efforts, sparking discussions about potential cabinet appointments and public sentiments.


A CBS News/YouGov poll shows that 59% of Americans support Donald Trump's transition, with varying opinions on cabinet picks such as Marco Rubio. As Trump prepares for his presidency, the balance of approval and uncertainty reflects public hopes for effective leadership.


A recent poll conducted by CBS News/YouGov reveals that a majority of Americans view President-elect Donald Trump’s transition to the presidency favorably. The survey, which included 2,232 American adults and was carried out between November 19 and 22, indicates that 59 percent of respondents approve of Trump’s strategies and actions during this transitional phase, while 41 percent expressed disapproval.

The poll findings suggest that Trump’s approach to preparing for his administration has struck a chord with a notable segment of the population. Additionally, the survey examined public attitudes towards Trump’s potential cabinet selections, specifically highlighting Senator Marco Rubio (R-FL) as a prospective nominee for secretary of state.

Among those surveyed, 44 percent deemed Rubio’s nomination a "good choice," with a significant 75 percent of Trump voters supporting this viewpoint. In contrast, 25 percent of all respondents opposed Rubio’s candidacy for the position, including 5 percent of Trump’s voter base. Furthermore, 31 percent of participants admitted they hadn’t gathered enough information on the issue to form a clear opinion, a reflection of uncertainty echoed by 19 percent of Trump voters.

These results point to a blend of optimism and reservation among the public as Trump curates his administration. While his transition efforts have been favorably received, the considerable number of individuals expressing uncertainty highlights the necessity for greater transparency and communication from the president-elect regarding key decisions.

As the inauguration date approaches, Trump's capacity to sustain or enhance his approval ratings may hinge on his effectiveness in addressing public expectations and navigating critical issues, which will include major cabinet appointments and other high-stakes decisions.
