Summary
A new AP-NORC poll reveals that Americans' pride in the country's history, democracy, military, and global political influence has declined significantly since 2017. The drop is largely driven by Democrats who have become increasingly disenchanted since President Trump's election. A separate Gallup poll confirms overall pride in being American has fallen to a record low. Despite these declines, most U.S. adults still say being American is extremely or very important to their identity.
