Newsweek - Among Trump's Cabinet picks, the secretary of health and human services nominee, Robert F. Kennedy Jr, appeared to be one of the more divisive. Yet, he has the highest favorable rating among all adults at 46 percent, a Gallup survey found. His unfavorable rating is 38 percent, giving Kennedy a net favorable rating of plus 8. A total of 15 percent of respondents said they have no opinion of Kennedy.
The poll, conducted January 21-27 among 1,001 adults, has a margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
Marco Rubio, who was already confirmed as secretary of state when the poll was carried out, also has a net favorable score of plus 8 points, with 41 percent viewing him favorably and 33 percent unfavorably. More than a quarter (26 percent) of adults said they have not yet formed an opinion of the former Florida senator.
Tulsi Gabbard, Trump's nominee for director of national intelligence, has a narrow overall positive favorability rating among Americans. The survey shows 28 percent have a favorable view of the former Democratic representative, compared to 27 percent who have a negative view. The poll reveals that 46 percent of respondents say they do not have an opinion of Gabbard.
Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, who secured Senate confirmation on January 24 after Vice President JD Vance cast the deciding vote in a 50-50 split, has the lowest favorable score among Trump's Cabinet picks. The Gallup poll showed that 22 percent of Americans hold a positive view of the former Fox News host, compared to 29 percent who view him negatively, giving him an overall score of minus 7 points. Nearly half (49 percent) said they have no opinion of Hegseth.
