guest: that is an average of many polls, not just ipsos.took many across polling firms to get an idea of preapproval and where he stood in a relative sense and that is where he stood in a relative sense. we just got his actual approval numbers last night from our poll. we have him at 47%. what does that suggest? he goes into office in a better place than 2017. in 2017 it was 41%. we have to remember that he did not win the popular vote so there was some dissonance. he did not have the same consensus that he has today. he comes into the white house and into washington in a stronger place. historically speaking he has below average around 55%. that is the typical place a president starts and at the beginning in the first hundred days, he has below that but better than he was in 2017. host: typically approval ratings decline. there is a honeymoon period, and then after 100 days in office it goes down. what are we expecting for this administration? guest: presidents do not have a forever stamp and they decline fairly quickly. between 100 days a

reuters ipsos today finds that trump is. >> starting with a national approval rating. >> of 47%, and. >> for context sake, that. >> is historically. >> low for new presidents. most presidents. >> start over 50%. >> this is supposed. >> to be the. honeymoon period after all. >> right. >> you actually. >> expect that. >> the number. >> of people who. >> voted for them will continue. >> to be for them. >> but then you expect sort of other people who. >> didn't. >> vote for them or who didn't vote at all to. >> also come over to. >> their side. >> with all of. >> the momentum. >> and the positive press that they. >> get for the start. >> in donald trump's. >> case. >> it has been the opposite. he has fallen from the amount of support. >> that he had in the election, and what he had in the election was less than 50% anyway. >> again. >> most presidents. >> start over. >> 50% at the start of their term. joe biden, for example, at. >> the start of his presidency, he was. >> up at 55%. >> at this point. >> but trump is starting. >> with low approval numbers. >> and. >> you. >> know, he may. >

capitol in trump's name, the same new reuters ipsos polling shows that a large majority of the public, 58% of the public, disagrees with trump issuing this. this blanket pardon and commutation for everybody convicted of crimes related to january 6th. and we're going to talk more about that tonight as one of trump's january 6th violent felons, who he released yesterday, was then immediately rearrested today on gun charges. that's not a good look. we've also had another day of republicans just being fundamentally unable to answer questions about what trump did here and whether or not they really support it. republican house speaker mike johnson today earned laughter when he tried to say that he didn't want to talk about the pardons anymore. he didn't want to look back, didn't want to look back at those pardons from yesterday. he only wants to look forward. and then right after he said that, he announced that republicans are going to go back and re investigate all of january 6th all over again. house speaker mike johnson not able to get out of his own way, not able to figure out how to a

the axios ipsos poll found 56% of americans support deporting immigrants in the country illegally, but that support drops significantly when you add specifics. 34% support deportations that involve separating families or sending people to country other than their countries of origin and just 38% support using active duty military to find and detain undocumented immigrants. >>> up next, the fire that started last week in a monterey battery plant, coming up, the potential concerns surrounding the environment, including sea otters. >>> california receiving $22 million to assist in the transition to evs, how that money will help drivers thinking about making the switch. - i had health insurance before. (discouraged) so expensive. i mean, i'm helping my mom out, i don't have that kinda cash. - ugh, i know. but you can get financial help now through covered california. it's totally affordable. you'd be surprised. they've got this calculator thing that shows how much you'll pay. - for real? - yeah! what are you doing not having health insurance, man? - hey, i know, i know... - here, let me sh

the new reuters ipsos poll, taken monday and tuesday after trump's inauguration, shows the presidentproval rating. but his decision to issue a blanket pardon for virtually all the rioters who participated in the january 6th capitol attack does not appear as popular. 58% said trump should not pardon all people convicted of crimes on january 6th. joining us now, republican strategist and msnbc political analyst susan del percio, my friend in ipsos and reuters reporting on this poll. they note that trump's starting at 47% is actually low by historical standards. i've got a love hate relationship with polls, but what's your take on this honeymoon period? and could it already be over with these pardons? >> it very. >> well could. >> be. >> over, ali. >> and the thing i'm. looking for is the poll after his first 100 days. >> let's see what happens. >> or even after his first month in office. >> because. >> as you mentioned, we. have the january 6th pardons, which are definitely going to hurt him with independents and of course, democrats, maybe a few republicans. but i'm also looking to se

liz: roaders report ago poll and ipsos poll and moving towards 50% in approval ratings in four days and he's at 47% and higher than he was in that poll for his entire first term. and americans are more in line than ever before. >> promises made and prosperities democrat. no one should be surprised what was going on here and it president trump not kidding expander those in line with him wasn't kidding around ask we want to get this done and want to bring america back home. we want a strong america and exceptionalism and america doesn't follow, it leads. it's the light of the world. america creates and expands and produces and america is a great country and we want to restore that greatness and this last administration and almost always made you feel bad and we weren't in a good country and good people and getting weaker and things going right and the globalist world and no, we're not, we're exceptional and going to continue to be exceptional. that's what all of this is about. liz: the justice department is firing more than 100 dee fishes on the team and saying trump doesn't trust them to

now according to new ipsos survey, 66% of americans support deporting illegal aliens., there is less consensus on the method how to deport them but the general view is still overwhelmingly supportive of deportation. thus, all the resistance is left with are feeble attempts to frighten you into believing that your views are hateful and wrong. but trump's team now one of the executive orders may trigger federal investigations of sanctuary jurisdictions including denver, colorado. >> he lifts predictions on being able to conduct ice raids schools churches. we assume he is doing that for a reason. we will challenge that in court and try to get injunction to stop those practices. we think there are plenty of reasonable common sense ways violent criminals and we can support and collaborate on that. >> laura: okay. thank you. you are helping us with violent criminals now? of course, these blue state mayors have helped fuel the migrant gang activity by continuing with their sanctuary madness in the first place. 42,000 illegals arrived in denver just in 2023. now many of whom w

we see the polls coming in from pew, from the new york times, cnn, new york times, ipsos, 87% of theew york times poll say yes, deportations of criminal illegal aliens. president trump is saying you've got to shut the border now to all illegal crossings. how are minority black and hispanic groups reacting to that? >> well, i am black but i'm also an american negro, that makes me foundational to this country and the immigration story has absolutely nothing to do with me. we find it very offensive that people can choose to break laws in this country and then our government rewards them with our tax dollars. there's no sanctuary for any american that chooses to commit federal crimes but if you're an illegal alien that in the city of chicago and other sanctuary cities have ways to protect you from federal prosecution. it's not fair. we don't support it. we support the american people because we are american and we are very tired of the narrative that people like me are in some fight with foreigners against white americans because we are all non-white. that's over. it's one nation, underg

we just posed this question with our partners at ipsos, and there is wide support for quote unquote,ass deportations. when you just ask people, do you want to move large numbers of americans, of people who are in the united states without sort of the legal predicate to be here? people say, yes, half of democrats or almost half of democrats say yes. but when you start to drill down on how to do it, do you want to separate children and families in the interest of moving fast? do you want to use the u.s. military? do you want to use u.s. military funding that was targeted originally for military use? that support drops like by half or more and becomes essentially core base republican support. >> interesting. all right. we've got a lot more to talk about today. straight ahead celebrations in tel aviv. three israeli hostages united with their families as the gaza cease fire begins to take effect. plus, donald trump drafts his day one pardons for people convicted during the january 6th capitol attack and the president elect's immediate plans to reshape government policy around his sweeping

this is a poll just out from the new york times and ipsos. and you can see a very split country right here. 47% want to keep dei. the slight plurality though, well within the margin of error. 48%. but i'll tell you what this all this really looks like kate bolduan this looks a heck of a lot like the election results, right? where you have slightly more saying they want to end dei than people who want to keep it. but really, what we're dealing with here is a split country. but i don't think there's going to be major backlash against trump, because you can see again, slightly more want to die than keep it. >> if broad strokes you're talking about these are public institutions, what about private private business? >> yeah. so i find this question to be interesting because, you know, it has a timeline associated with it. there aren't a lot of questions, have timelines associated with it with the eye. so businesses die. it's important to know back in 2021. look at this. it was 68%, 68%. more than two thirds of the country. where were we by 2024? l

this is reuters ipsos. it's among adults. it was taken the first few days of this administration. look here. back in january 2017, donald trump became the first president in history to start his presidency with a net negative approval rating. look at where we are now in january 2025, considerably better at plus six points. that's up nine points to borrow a donald trump phrase. this is big league. this is a sign that the american people, at least initially, like what they're seeing. and so you see right here, more americans approve of donald trump's job than disapprove. and that is very much, very much unlike what we saw eight years ago. >> so compare the rating now to the entire first term. >> yeah. so it's not just that he's doing better than where he was doing eight years ago. it's that he's doing better than he ever did during his entire first administration. so i again. >> he never was he never was over plus three. >> he was never over plus three. the highest rating he ever his highest ever net approval rating was plus three in march of. >> your choice of photo is quite. >> he

we saw new york times, ipsos had a poll out yesterday. 80% of americans far more than support donald trump, support deportation of criminal aliens. immediately, 80% of americans. that's an incredible number. and so i think americans are going to see some of these. >> well, you you you read the new york times, i read the wall street journal and their polls also said that 70% don't want long term immigrants deported, don't want these dreamers deported. >> so he has to choose his targets carefully. >> yeah, but listen to to your point, david, there are a million, 1.6 million criminal aliens here adjudicated ready for deportation, probably another 500,000. so you've done this in the obama administration. that's almost that's over 2 million people ready to go to be deported. that's going to take a little bit of time. i just that's going to take a little bit of time and let's get at it, america, because that's what people want to see. >> i'm just trying to chime in before the ravens bills game. guys. >> let's go buffalo. >> so i disagree with you slightly about the fact that he has four ye

you go back last month, just 14% of americans thought we were on the right track, according to ipsos reuters. look at that. the wrong track was 62%. look how much the right percentage is up this month since donald trump took office. it's up 23 points to 37%, pretty much right next. >> to that. >> wrong track number at 42%. still slightly more americans saying. >> we're on. >> the wrong track than the right track, but the right. >> track number. >> has gone through the roof. up to 37%. a 23 point jump since donald trump took office. >> so the bottom line is. >> this many more americans are saying that the country is on the right track right now. they're liking a lot more of what we're doing on immigration than just a month ago in the joe biden administration. they're liking a lot more what republicans and what donald trump are doing than what they thought of what joe biden and the democrats were doing. >> then i assume that the trend is the same. when you look specifically at donald trump on immigration. >> yeah, it's very similar. so take a look here. you know, job trump is doing on

. >> i mean, if you look at the polling from the new york times ipsos survey today, trump's plans on immigration, including mass deportations and especially deporting people who are violent criminals, is overwhelmingly popular. i mean, people want this. they voted for it. and there's no time like the present to get started on it. so i'm not surprised that this is going to be a big focus of day one. i'm not surprised that he has empowered his borders are homan to get started on this. this is the animating issue of donald trump when he started his campaign back in 2015. this is the issue that animates him. it largely animates the republican base. if he gets this right and he gets the economy right, he's going to have a great term. and so i'm glad to see him getting started right out of the gate. and you're going to see republicans on capitol hill overwhelmingly supportive of this. >> and paul scott mentions this new york times polling, which i think is important because most americans, as he's saying, 55% say they agree with deporting all immigrants who are here illegally, 63% say they

not just ipsos, but policy across the market, across polling firms. we wanted to get an idea about pre-approval, where he stood in a relative sense; that is, where trump stood in a relative sense. we just got his actual approval if numbers last night from our reuters p.o. we have -- poll, we have him at 47%. what does it suggest? trump goes into office his second time in a better place than in his first, in 2017. in 2017 it was 4 is % approval. we have to remember back then he did not win the popular vote, is so there was some dissonance there. he didn't have the same sort of consensus that he doesed the. he comes into the white house, into washington in a a stronger place. but historically speaking, he's below the average. the average is around 55% or is. that's the incall a place a president starts at the -- typical place a president starts. he is below that but better than he was in 2017. >> host: and typically approval ratings decline. there's a honeymoon if period. and of after 100 days in office, it goes down. so what are we expecting for this a

. >> host: ipsos neri but what you think of the scenario? >> guest: it's unlikely.he democrats in no that they're not going to have the speaker and the speakers most likely going to be a republican. and so their incentive rule is to sit back and let the republicans work this out themselves. that's not to says. if things didn't go very sideways that we wouldn't find some way of like working, you know, congress would findco some way to work together, the house wouldho come together and say what about a consensus speaker? we saw some of this discussion in october of 2023 where, when they were deadlocked in jim jordan was sort of that 200 or 191 votes and jeffrey was holdingje it 212, that that's wn democrats had the most say over it because it was apparent they were not going to move down from that. there was kind of this discussion. it didn't last very long. .. inconceivable, but it is unlikely. host: important thing to remember here is that being elected speaker -- you have to win the one vote. it is not really one vote. you need a durable political coalition that wi

a new reuters ipsos poll, taken monday and tuesday after trump's inauguration, shows the president with a 47% approval rating. >> but his. >> decision to issue a blanket pardon for virtually all the rioters who. participated in the january 6th capitol attack doesn't appear to be as popular, 58% said trump should not pardon all people convicted of crimes. on january 6th. we'll be following that and still ahead on morning joe, former dc metropolitan police officer michael fanone, who defended the capitol on january 6th and was attacked with a stun gun. that day, joins us next to react to president trump's blanket pardon for rioters. plus, president trump's pick for defense secretary pete hegseth is facing new allegations that could potentially complicate his confirmation. we'll have the latest from capitol hill. we're latest from capitol hill. we're back some people just know they could save hundreds on car insurance by checking allstate first. okay, let's get going. can everybody see that? like you know to check your desktop first, before sharing your screen. ahh...uhhh. no, that, uhhh.

but then ipsos. >> so a majority of people out there in the country want to reduce it, and a majorityople in parliament basically want to keep the. >> that was the other interesting thing that ipsos did. they also surveyed mps as well. right. and that the mps were the other way. around 49% of mps were for keeping immigration high and only 31% against. so it was a little bit of a difference in opinion between mps and the public, a bit like we had with brexit back in 2016 when most mps were against it, but the public were in favour. >> so essentially we've got this sort of elite minority that's more socially liberal, that's more socially liberal, that's more pro—immigration, which is not representing the more pro—immigration, which is not
