The poll found that while 38% of Americans say Trump made progress toward solving major issues, an almost identical 37% say he exacerbated the country's major problems. Some 15% said he tried, but failed, to address the problems, while 10% said he did not address them at all.
When looking at his legacy along party lines, 77% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents said Trump made progress in addressing major issues, compared with only 7% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents.
On the other hand, 64% of Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents were among those who answered that Trump made the country's problems worse, an answer given by only 5% of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents.
Democrats and Democratic-leaning independents were also five times more likely (16%) to say that he did not address the country's major problems, an answer given by only a small minority of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents.
Along party lines, it seems that the democratic disapproval of Trump's legacy outweighs the Republican support for it. The poll found that 89% of Democratic or Democratic-leaning independents said Trump's performance was terrible (72%) or poor (17%), while only around 73% Republican and Republican-leaning independents said it was great (37%) or good (36%).
When compared to previous Pew Research polls, the poll shows very little movement in opinion compared to polls taken throughout his time in office.
