“The amount of progress he has made over the first six months is unmatched,” said Taylor, a businesswoman in Iowa. She grades the first six months of President Donald Trump’s new term a nine out of 10.

“His slashing of government and putting incompetent people in charge is going to harm every aspect of American life,” is Malinconico’s take at six months.

Their polar opposite assessments highlight one big takeaway of a check-in with voters participating in CNN’s “All Over the Map” project: The black or white views of Trump that animated the 2024 campaign now carry over to how most voters view his presidency.
