Americans Happy with Economy

I've just dipped into the Harvard/Harris, and I'm happy with what I'm seeing.

70% think the U.S. economy is Very or Somewhat strong.
59% think the Russia Investigation is hurting the country.
56% approve of Trump's handling of the economy.
52% approve of Trump's State of the Union
36% say their personal financial situation is improving.

Only 9% strongly oppose ending the defense sequester. 21% somewhat oppose.
Only 11% strongly oppose Guantanamo. 16% somewhat oppose.

The polls asks a series of heard/seen and believe/don't believe question concerning developments in the Russia Investigation. After the questions, respondents are asked, do you think these developments are evidence of significant bias in the Trump-Russia probe or they are not evidence of significant bias. 60% think the developments are evidence of significant bias. 64% want to investigate the FISA Court. 80% think the FBI should had vetted the Steele dossier before using it in the FISA Court.

In terms of priorities, 33% of all respondents think the focus should be stimulating American jobs, which is good, because that's Trump's highest approval rating.

Top Five Most Important Issues
Health care......................................35%
Terrorism/National security............32%
Economy and Jobs..........................32%
Immigration....................................28%
National Debt and Deficit...............23%

56% want to renegotiate the Iran nuclear deal.
53% think Democrats don't want to solve DACA until after the midterms.
