Majority of Americans Say Trump Aggravating Racial Unrest: Poll

More than half of Americans—55 percent—said President Donald Trump is aggravating racial unrest across the country, with the majority saying his "law and order" campaign strategy is promoting the opposite.

Only one in 10 Americans said Trump's rhetoric in response to police shootings and racial protests has made the situation in the U.S. any better, according to a new ABC News/Ipsos poll. Even among the president's base Republican voters, fewer than one-third said Trump is helping to improve the country's debate over police brutality and racial disparities. About 80 percent of Democrats and a majority of independents said Trump is making U.S. racial unrest even worse, while 15 percent more U.S. adults—56 to 42—said they trust Biden more to "keep their families safe."

About 18 percent of white Americans without a college degree—a core demographic in Trump's base—said they believe the president is having a positive effect on racial protests.

Americans overwhelmingly view Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden as a neutral figure in the face of unprecedented division, with half saying Biden isn't having much impact either way. Illustrating the middle-of-the-road views Americans have of Biden, 54 percent of independents in the survey said Biden is not having much effect on racial unrest either way.
