BREAKING: A new Economist/YouGov poll from January 2026 shows deep unease across the country, with 71% of Americans saying the United States feels “out of control” under President Donald Trump as his second year continues.

The dissatisfaction cuts across major issues like the economy and immigration, and even reaches parts of Trump’s own base. The image circulating alongside the poll shows Trump holding a red hat reading “GULF OF AMERICA – 47,” a nod to his controversial Executive Order 14172, which ordered federal agencies to rename U.S. Continental Shelf waters of the Gulf of Mexico as the “Gulf of America.”

The move, framed by the administration as a symbol of sovereignty and national pride, sparked international backlash—particularly from Mexico—while further fueling debate at home about leadership style, stability, and America’s direction.

A new Economist/YouGov poll released in January 2026 suggests a growing sense of unease among Americans as President Donald Trump enters his second year back in office. According to the survey, 71 percent of respondents say the country feels “out of control,” reflecting widespread dissatisfaction that cuts across party lines.

Concerns are most pronounced around the economy and immigration, two issues that have defined much of Trump’s agenda. While Republicans remain more supportive overall, the poll indicates noticeable erosion even within segments of Trump’s own base, with some voters expressing frustration over unpredictability and governance style.

The poll’s release coincides with renewed controversy surrounding Executive Order 14172, which directed federal agencies to rename U.S. Continental Shelf waters of the Gulf of Mexico as the “Gulf of America.” An image circulating alongside coverage of the poll shows Trump holding a red hat emblazoned with “GULF OF AMERICA – 47,” underscoring the administration’s emphasis on symbolism and nationalist messaging.

The move was framed by the White House as a statement of sovereignty and national pride, but it quickly sparked international backlash, particularly from Mexico, and reignited debate at home. Critics argue the decision reflects a focus on provocative gestures rather than substantive policy, while supporters see it as a bold assertion of American identity.

Together, the poll numbers and the ongoing controversy highlight a nation grappling with questions of leadership, stability, and direction as Trump’s second term continues.

Kaitlin Collins is a badass. A journalist that’s not afraid to ask pertinent questions and doesn’t allow crooked politicians to demean her. She is also a wonderful role model for young women and girls. That’s way more than we can say about anyone in the White House in 2026.
