Trump's Foreign Trips Get Low Marks New Poll Shows

President Donald Trump’s summits in North Korea and Russia have received tepid support at home, with less than a third of Americans saying the trips were a success in an Economist/YouGov poll released Wednesday.

The June 12 meeting between Trump and North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un was successful 28 percent of respondents said, while 33 percent said it was unsuccessful and 39 percent said they were not sure.

Trump’s meeting with Putin received lower marks, with 23 percent calling it successful and 35 percent calling it unsuccessful. Only one in 10 Americans thought the U.S. got more out of the Putin summit than Russia did. Russia got more said 33 percent, while 26 percent called it a wash.

Republicans were markedly more supportive of Trump’s foreign trips than Democrats. Fifty-nine percent of Republicans called the Singapore summit a success, and 44 percent of Republicans saw success in the Helsinki meeting.

Where Trump not only gets to vacation, but gets to rake in extra money by paying for his and his support staff and security staying there. All that money gets funneled back into Trump's pockets.
