CGTN Poll: Trump’s approval rating plummets after 100 days in office
One hundred days into his second term, U.S. President Donald Trump and his “America First” policy are facing mounting challenges, according to new CGTN polls.
In February and April this year, CGTN conducted two global public opinion surveys involving 15,947 respondents from 38 countries.
Findings show a sharp decline in American public satisfaction with Trump’s governance. His tariff-centric approach and “America First” policy have triggered growing pessimism among respondents from both traditional U.S. allies and the Global South regarding future relations with the United States. The administration now faces a serious global trust deficit.
Global confidence in the U.S. declines
In the April survey, 48.9 percent of American respondents expressed dissatisfaction with Trump’s performance since taking office. Of those, 53.1 percent criticized his “reciprocal tariffs” policy for damaging the U.S. stock market, while 60.4 percent believed his domestic economic policies failed to control inflation and instead caused price increases. Meanwhile, 54 percent expressed serious concerns about his interest rate policies.
Discontent is also rising globally. Respondents from key U.S. allies expressed deep concern over strained ties with Washington. In France, Germany, Canada, Japan, and South Korea, more than 70 percent of respondents were pessimistic about their countries’ future relations with the U.S. Many cited the belief that the “America First” doctrine has made the U.S. less attentive to its allies. This sentiment was strongest in South Korea, where 87 percent strongly agreed, and over 70 percent in the UK, Germany, Canada, Australia, and Italy shared the view.
Likewise, confidence among Global South countries has rapidly declined. Of the 23 surveyed, 19 expressed pessimism about future ties with the U.S. In South Africa, Egypt, Peru, Indonesia, and Malaysia, optimism dropped by more than 20 percentage points.
Tariff bullying damages global public’s goodwill towards the U.S.
Both surveys found widespread opposition to U.S. tariff policy. Some 74.2 percent of global respondents believe the policy will seriously harm their countries’ economic development – a figure up 16.3 percentage points in just two months. Disapproval grew most in Saudi Arabia and Serbia, where negative views surged by 28.5 percentage points.
In Southeast Asia, countries like Vietnam, the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, and Malaysia – seen as “hard-hit areas” of U.S. tariffs – have shown growing resistance. Among respondents in these five countries, 60.2 percent believe “strengthening export controls and unilateral sanctions” harms their national development, up 15.5 percentage points from the previous survey. Meanwhile, 69.4 percent opposed “limiting investment by foreign technology enterprises” (up 14.3 percentage points), and 61.5 percent viewed U.S. “reducing dependence on foreign imports and supply chains” as detrimental to their countries (up 12.3 percentage points).
China’s firm countermeasures against U.S. tariffs received strong global backing. In 37 out of 38 countries surveyed, majorities supported China’s actions. Support among developing countries was especially strong – 13 countries, including Kenya, Egypt, Brazil, Kazakhstan, Nigeria, Malaysia, the UAE, and South Africa, saw support rates above 70 percent, with Kenya topping the list at 82.5 percent. Among developed countries, the UK led the G7 with a 70.5 percent support rate, followed by Canada (69.5 percent), Germany (66 percent), and France (65.5 percent).
The surveys were jointly conducted by CGTN and Renmin University of China via the Institute of International Communication in the New Era. Respondents included individuals from developed countries such as the U.S., the UK, France, and Japan, as well as from developing nations including Mexico, South Africa, and Malaysia.

Swell Realty and Swell Real Estate Co. Host Monthly Happy Hour Networking Events Supporting Local Charities
United States, 1st May 2025 — Swell Realty Co. and Swell Real Estate Co. have launched a new monthly happy hour series aimed at strengthening connections among real estate professionals while making a meaningful impact in the community. These events, which began in March, are open to all local real estate agents and feature a unique 50/50 raffle that benefits both attendees and charitable causes.
The happy hours are more than just networking opportunities—they’re community-driven gatherings where half of the raffle proceeds go to the winner, and the other half is donated to a local charity. “We wanted to create a space where agents from all brokerages could come together, build camaraderie, and also give back,” said Matt Langan, Owner of Swell Realty Co..
The initiative launched in March at VooDoo Brewing with great success. That month, the charity portion of the raffle was donated to support the families of two Virginia Beach police officers who tragically lost their lives in the line of duty. In April, the happy hour was held at Back Bay Farmhouse Brewery, where funds raised went to support homeless veterans through the Judeo Christian Outreach Center.
Swell Gives Back, founded in 2023 as the non profit entity of its parent company, Swell Real Estate Co., has also helped contribute.
Swell Gives Back’s principal mission is to help those neighbors in need and in the communities where Swell agents work and live.
Swell Gives Back’s primary source of donations come from the agents of Swell Realty and Swell Real Estate who graciously contribute portions of their commissions in an effort to help fund the organization’s charitable initiatives. These include but are not limited to: Toys for Tots, Salvation Army, local homeless shelters, shoes for local school kids, families of slain police officers and other worthy causes.
The next happy hour is scheduled for May 15th at Union Taco in Norfolk, continuing the company’s mission to uplift the community while fostering professional connections. Local agents are encouraged to attend, enjoy an evening of casual networking, and participate in the impactful raffle.
“Our vision is simple,” Langan added. “We want to build stronger ties within the real estate community while providing real help to those in need. Every ticket sold is a step toward both goals.”
The happy hour events reflect Swell Realty’s broader commitment to social responsibility and community engagement. By combining business networking with purposeful giving, the firm is setting a new standard for what it means to be a local industry leader.
For more information on upcoming events or to RSVP, contact Matt Langan directly at matt@sellwithswell.com.
