According to a recent poll conducted by the Associated Press and the NORC Center, about half of American adults have 'no confidence at all' in Trump's ability to select qualified candidates for cabinet and top executive positions, while only three in ten Americans are 'extremely confident' or 'very confident' in his appointments. It is expected that Republicans have more confidence in Trump than Democrats, but this is not an overwhelming majority. About two in ten Republicans indicate 'average confidence', while another two in ten Republicans express 'slight confidence' or 'no confidence at all'. Additionally, people's confidence levels in Trump's ability to manage government spending and execute other key presidential tasks are similarly aligned.
