A CNN/SSRS poll published this week shows that a slim majority of Americans (55 percent) approve of Trump's handling of the transition, while 45 percent disapprove. That number is among the lowest approval ratings for a president-elect's transition since at least 1993. Only one other presidential transition - Trump's first entry into the White House in 2017 - polled at a lower rating.
Indeed, according to the CNN/SSRS poll, only 37 percent of Americans say they feel more confident in Trump's ability to serve as president at the end of the transition period, while 53 percent say they have less confidence in him.
There are numerous reasons why Americans may be more concerned about a Trump presidency now than they were two months ago - including the people the president-elect has nominated to serve in his cabinet.
