31% of Americans say they trust what President Trump says about the coronavirus, while 51% trust Dr. Fauci, NBC News/SurveyMonkey weekly tracking poll says.

when it comes to wearing masks outside the home. Even though 68 percent of adults said they wear protective masks"every time" they leave their homes and may come into contact with other people, just 48 percent of Republicans and those who lean Republican said they wear them"every time." Democrats and Democratic leaners are far more likely to say they always wear masks when leaving home, with 85 percent saying so.

As the school year nears despite the unrelenting pandemic, schools are beginning to decide whether to hold in-person or remote instruction. Thirty-eight percent of adults report that their children's schooling will be conducted entirely online when schools reopen, and 25 percent say there will be a mixture of in-person and online instruction. Just 18 percent reported that their children will go to school"fully in-person."

The data come from a set of SurveyMonkey online polls conducted July 27-Aug. 2, 2020, among a national sample of 47,190 adults in the U.S. Respondents were selected from the more than 2 million people who take surveys on the SurveyMonkey platform each day. The modeled error estimate for this survey is plus or minus 1.0 percentage points.

Politics_PR What the heck are the 31% looking at or listening to?

Politics_PR An even greater number of American don’t trust msnbc. In fact , republicans and democrats alike recognize your corporate owners propaganda machine firing on all cylinders.

Politics_PR Who are the idiots that compose the 31%? Yikes.

That is absolutely terrifying 31%, ? I haven't heard him say one coherent, or truthful, thing about it. This is terrifying and they are likely gun owners also, they aren't intelligent enough to be, or be parents, or responsible for living things, or ingestible, or mechanical..

MSNBC cnn abc all fake news. Nobody trust FAuci

And no one trust what MSNBC says.

It should be 100% Fauci and 0% Trump. Fauci is an esteemed epidemiologist. Trump is a clueless criminal.

That 31% is such a pain to deal with because they're just like Drumf. You can't have a discussion with them because they're never wrong and it's their freedom of speech to do whatever they want.

Who took this poll? 😨

Y’all just trying to make Trump Mad 😂

31% of Americans are ignorant.

31% of Americans are idiots.

Republicans against science. Wow!

Almost a third of the country believes that lunatic? Public education in science (and civics, and math, and history etc) has failed BIG TIME... TrumpVirus

It's amazing that 31% are really that stupid. When will they wake up & realize tRUMP is killing them?

fakenews. ! nobody trust Fauci. ! nobody!

DStewart541 31% How are so many people SO stupid?!?!?!? How do you trust someone who can’t even SPELL science never mind understand it? 🤦‍♀️

Fauci is fraud. Tik tok Fauci.

That's 31% way too many.

Both numbers are absurd. My fellow citizens are cretins.

In 2020, 31% United States Citizens don't believe in science!

Note: The 31% that trust the president were actually found to have passed away in the mid 1850s.

So about 10 % of Americans support him and will vote for him, even though they don't trust him on coronavirus. Nuts!

Who the hell are these 31%? Disgraceful!

The story is only 51% trust the doctor? The other 49% don’t. They may not trust Trump due to politics.

Haha

SmokeyStafford what's wrong with those 31%?

So 31 percent are stupid

Lies lies lies

Bull shit 52 percent trust fauci!

0% believe MSLIE!

NOT - we are wide awake. NFL NBA MLB KingJames SteveKerr CNN SHAQ FauciFan There's a special place in hell for you. Keep kicking ass realDonaldTrump TuckerCarlson DiamondandSilk w_terrence DavidJHarrisJr dbongino

Fauci is not an epidemiologist. He never treated COVID patients. Why would anyone trust this phony?

Dr. Fauci should not be trusted. He has contradicted himself many times in regards to his advisement on COVID. He has a past of cheating and lying as well.

Who trusts Fauci?

Not if they watched

31% of those surveyed probably were Russians

Just goes to show ya the extent of the ignorance of the indoctrinated folks . Fauci invented the darn virus with his buddy gates . Research it .

Gee, Fauci isn't at 100%? wonder why

More fake polls ? Every body dislikes Faucii who in 2005 said HCQ works great with no mention of issues and now he says the opposite and the only proof he has are fake studies or articles where patients were given toxic doses or were treated far to late in the disease. Lies.

99.5% of the media tells the public to believe Fauci and not Trump. It appears you failed on both accounts.

The rest of the world has figured this out based in science. Maybe all these adults need to go back to school in the USA instead of the kids?

Hmmm nobody polled me😂

never trust these 31% of Americans

Where in God's name have those 31% idiots been living,under a freaking rock? Oh they watch FOX NEWS,so I think Fox News is just as guilty for all the deaths as is Trump and all the morons who voted for him.

Democrats talk about the science, but don’t use it when it proves them wrong, schools open all over the world and not one case of student to teachers with Covit. Dems sent sick elderly back to nursing homes causing 35% of all deaths, but they blame Trump.

Another Democratically run poll.

Shameful that trust of Dr. Fauci is down to 51% — that stat was in the 60’s very recently. He’s falling victim to Trump character assassination techniques.

I trust Dr. Fauci and the other scientists any day over Donald Trump!

Sad. Should be 100% for the doctor and 0% for the game show host.

What is wrong with the 31%!

How is it really possible that 31% of Americans believe what realDonaldTrump says about COVID-19

I am totally amazed that we have 31% Who actually believe a man who would advise citizens to inject Clorox & cleaning fluids into their bodies. Cool side drinkers.

And the other 18%? Shows there is a stupendous amount if ignorance in America when the clown is considered smarter than a revered doctor. And Trump's professor's words' he's the dumbest goddam student I ever had' HOP hates education sadly.

We don’t trust FRAUDCI

Sheep FollowTheMoney

Κι έτσι πρέπει επιστημων γαρ

31% hardcore bigots standing firm with their Grand wizard. .

Dr Fauci works for the President 's Covid 19 task force. Sad that only 51% believe science.

31? Why so high?

Maybe because 150,000 is less than 0.0004% of the population, whereas almost 100% of the population is affected by the shutdown. It's not the plague they forecast.... (And I'm not minimizing 150k....it's we are used to 2-4 million a year without blinking)

Wondering, what could possibly be Dr. Fauci's motive for misleading the public. Must be difficult living every day believing someone is trying to get one over on you.

Hilarious. Not even all of his gullible 40% are with him.

31%

I trust Fauci! I don’t trust Trump with anything... BunkerBoyTrump

☹️😨31%.... who are these people 🤦‍♀️.... how many more are going to die on his watch?

What this poll show is that 31% of the population deserve the mess this country is in ....unfortunately , it effects the rest of the population as well

I trust Dr, Fauci and Laurie Garrett

31% Hillbilly's

I only trust Dr. Fauci! The other one said this would be over by the “April” miracle. It’s August already and I am still waiting.

31% is a very high figure of Dumb people.

Trump is NOT a specialist in infectious deseases though he obviously thinks he is in EVERYTHING! He is nothing but a jack of all trades, but a master of none!! He's not even a good golfer! The only thing he is possibly good at is.........RUNNING HIS MOUTH!

and 90% of Americans don't trust MSDNC FakeNews

Fake News, who told you will don’t trust him.

Well let’s see here....

Communist Group endorses Biden

31%?!!! Who in the F and where in the F are these idiots

Who created these polls? Kindergarteners?

Because of what Fauci said in this report in August 2005 NIH and what he is saying now is why I don't trust him but I trust Dr Scott Atlas - Hover Institute and Dr Harvey Risch - Yale.

The Producer of MSNBC calls MSNBC news a cancer.

Pathetic reflection of modern day America. How 31% believe a no nothing, willfully ignorant charlatan and only 51% believe a medical doctor with 40 years of non partisan commitment to public health! TRULY PATHETIC and EMBARRASSING!

I am astounded that the percentage of those who trust trump is that high. What’s wrong with those people? Does someone have to die of covid 19 right in front of them?

If you ever wondered who buys those stupid infomercial sales pitches it’s these 31%

Never even saw the targeted to TheDemocrats survey. But Dr Fauci hasn’t seen a patient in over 20 years & he’s simply an unelected Gov employee. Trump is advised by many - not just left leaning Dr Fauci.

Is it coincidence with the fact that 38% of Americans have low IQs

Well, you MSNBC & CNN should take a large part of the blame. Dr Fauci is a proven liar, constantly back peddling &changing his position. While MSM, like you spread falsehoods, statements out of context, mis-interpretations and just plain lies. Majority of your reporting is false

If you trust Trump then you put your life at risk!! We don't have Covid19 under control. Trump is doing absolutely nothing to slow the spread

31% of the dumbest M-fer's in the world.

31% of the nuts r still unmasked

I don’t trust a word the SOB says.

I’m shocked that 31% believe a word out of his mouth. If his lips are moving, he’s lying.

31% of the insane. wow

Who exactly are these pathetic, stupid 31%?

It's pathetic that 31% of the people believe anything that comes out of Trump's mouth.

How can so many people ,31% , be so damn stupid?

The scary part is the 31% who trust Trump! Wow!

Period!

That 31% are literally stupid

Would that be the same 31% who comprise Trump's BIGLY dumbed down base? can't fix stupid...

I'm just going to go ahead and say what we're all thinking anyway - imagine what an amazing place the US would be if that 31% of Americans who trust Trump magically disappeared?

WTF is wrong with 31%

It's disturbing only 51% trust Fauci...

barely 50% trust the world’s most knowledgeable, experienced, and accomplished immunologist? this country is so fucked.

Is that 31% of the population out of their minds?

WTF is wrong with people? How is it still that f**king high? 🤦‍♂️

What percentage would inject disinfectant and what percentage in all likelihood would insert light bulbs up their ass. I’m going for the 31%, you know the criminally insane, wilfully ignorant and the aggressively stupid Trump supporter.

31% of Americans need to stop trusting the monster who doesn’t give a sh*t about them.

31% an entire 1/3 RD of the population trusts trump? I don’t find that good news I find that astonishing. That 1/3 of rot ruins the whole pot.

There are about 31% of people who participated in this poll/survey that are absolute idiots and bigots. 🤯🤦‍♂️

Republicans don't listen to the facts. They listen to the face and the mouth as well as the party. And God forbid they listen to a truth telling Democrat.

31% ?

Why we they EVER trust the president more than a medical professional? Wt's wrong with the 31%?

“I’m not sure why they don’t like me, I guess it’s my personality”. It’s literally your face, voice, and general existence. The presidency will never hold the same prestige, and Merica will have to work for decades to ever be exceptional again.

How the hell can this be partisan? Are Republicans more stupid in general?

Prolonged; hand-washing, mask-wearing, disinfecting everything - -may, or may not, help stop a *virus* ... ... but it WILL likely have an impact on our natural-immune-systems. Disease loves a poor immune-system. Might pharma companies benefit from a poor immune-system?

The party gap is astounding. 69% of Republicans trust Trump...

This country is fucked

The 31 percent are Trump supporters, that doesn't say much about America's confidence in him.

Some questions to ask and consider when analyzing political polls.

I don't believe you

He didn’t you ask who trusts Dr Birx!? I trust her most!

I’m worried about the 31% who trust Trump!

Cult... Exhibit 33462

Do you e have 31%

That’s frightening

Republicans are idiots

Science wins, that’s the takeaway.

There you go, the reason why you are where you are: that 31% of Americans.

Are y’all trying to get him fired?

Perhaps, all 31% belong to MAGA cult. They will never learn.

51% is extremely low. And part of the reason this virus is going out of control in the US now. What do these people need to take it seriously? A second opinion?

Sounds like a super reliable poll 😂😂

That’s his cult. They’ll truly lap up ANY flavor of BS he shovels, and happily beg for more.

I advise anyone not to trust any poll, ever 🤷‍♂️

31%? Anything is possible nowadays.

Stunned it's still that high for Trump and that low for Fauci. This is why we're losing to COVID.

Mental

31% is still a heck of a lot in my eyes considering what has truly actually happened and been said

K-12 schools and colleges can reopen, but safety should come first, Fauci says'The idea that this may be an exercise in futility I think is becoming increasingly real to me,' says drsanjaygupta as some schools make plans to bring kids back school. '...The numbers will go up.' drsanjaygupta Hi just wanted to know when you're going to start reporting on the Hollywood sex trafficking that's been happening drsanjaygupta CNN in a tie up with Global times of china and feeding china with false headlines. America should completely avoid liberals, communists and their eco system. Save America , do not become a stooge of china drsanjaygupta This country needed a strong central leader supported by a learned group of experts. This is what happens when the proverbial chain has a weak link, esp. when it is the chairman. If someone would say, DO NOT OPEN SCHOOLS YET they would receive Godlike status immediately.

Fauci says states seeing surge in COVID-19 cases should reconsider some lockdown measuresThe U.S. government's top infectious disease expert, Dr. Anthony Fauci, on Monday said states with high coronavirus case counts should reconsider imposing lockdown restrictions, emphasizing the need to get cases to a low baseline before the fall flu season. Dahhhhhh!!! at least this virus should be locked down. doesn't need to microscope to see it.

U.S. needs to get daily cases down to 10,000 before fall, Fauci saysThe US will need to bring its daily coronavirus case count down to 10,000 by September to gain some level of control over the pandemic before fall, Dr. Fauci says. That seems super unlikely LoL Ironically - in Australia, which Trump says is “out of control”, our equivalent of 10000 cases per day is 770 (based on population). We haven’t ever hit that, yet one state, Victoria, is at stage 4 due to a spike where we have 300-400 cases per day. USA is totally screwed.
