BOOM! Americans Trust Trump with Economy, Security — And Support Trump’s Muslim Ban

A clear majority of American voters trust Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton with the economy.

After the worst economic president in US history Americans are ready for a change and trust Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton.

51% of voters support Trump over Hillary Clinton (43% ) with the economy.

Americans also support Trump over Hillary Clinton to keep America safe.
Morning Consult reported:

A slim plurality of voters trust Donald Trump more than Hillary Clinton to keep America safe following the Orlando terror attack, according to a new Morning Consult poll.

The presumptive GOP nominee edges his Democratic counterpart, 41 percent to 37 percent, with more than one-fifth of voters saying they didn’t know or had no opinion. Trust for the candidates breaks cleanly along partisan lines: Republicans trust Trump over Clinton by a huge margin (80 percent to 8 percent), while Democrats trust Clinton over Trump similarly, 71 percent to 12 percent.

But among independents, almost four in 10 (38 percent) voters trust Trump, compared with 26 percent for the former secretary of State and first lady.

Men backed Trump over Clinton, 47 percent to 35 percent, while the Democratic nominee was slimly favored by women, 38 percent to 36 percent.

And Americans also support Donald Trump’s temporary Muslim ban. Americans are largely split on the idea. Almost half (48 percent) said they support a ban, 40 percent said they oppose
