Musk's Approval Rating Falls Below Trump; Federal Cuts Controversial
A poll released last Friday shows that 35% of people approve of Musk's management of the "Department of Government Efficiency" (DOGE), while 57% disapprove, up from 49% in February having a negative view of Musk. The percentage of people approving of Musk's work has not changed significantly, with 34% approval two months ago. However, the poll found that Musk's popularity remains lower than Trump's. In this survey, Trump's approval rating is 39%, with a disapproval rate of 55%. After Tesla released dismal financial results for Q1 2025, Musk announced he would dedicate more time to company operations. The poll indicates that nearly 60% of people believe President Trump's efforts to downsize the federal government through layoffs have gone too far.
