  • 🚨NEW: Ahead of a possible shutdown of the federal government, Americans have more negative than positive views of President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance and top congressional leaders on both sides of the aisle. 58% of Americans have an unfavorable view of Trump, while 40% have a favorable view. 51% of Americans view Vance unfavorably, while 40% see him favorably. Another 8% say they have never heard of him. The top congressional leaders in both parties are not as well-known as the president and vice president.
