As U.S. President Donald Trump marks his first 100 days in office, a recent poll from Pew Research sheds light on the demographics that support him the most.

It shows that Trump’s approval ratings are significantly higher among Christians compared to the religiously unaffiliated, highlighting the divide between religious groups in America.

Higher Approval Among Christians, Especially Evangelicals

Trump’s approval rating stands out notably among white evangelical Protestants, who gave him an overwhelming 72% approval.

Catholics, on the other hand, are more divided, with 42% of them expressing approval of the president.

Across all Christian denominations, the approval rate for Trump is more than 20 percentage points higher than among those who are religiously unaffiliated, where only 26% approved of his performance.

Differences Within Christian Groups

When broken down further, the survey reveals interesting splits within Christian communities.

While white evangelical Protestants were the most supportive, Black Protestants had the least approval of Trump, with only 10% supporting his presidency.

The poll also pointed out that white Catholics are more likely to approve of Trump (52%) compared to Hispanic Catholics, whose approval stands at a much lower 26%.

Methodology Behind the Poll

The Pew Research poll surveyed over 3,500 U.S. adults between April 7 and April 13, 2025, providing a clear snapshot of how different segments of the American population view the current president.

The survey’s results are particularly significant as they give insight into how Trump’s policies and actions resonate with religious Americans compared to those without religious affiliation.

As President Trump enters his second term, understanding the base of support among different religious groups will continue to play a critical role in shaping his political strategy and outreach efforts.
