WASHINGTON, D.C. (WKRC) - A new Gallup poll found that a record-low number of US adults are extremely proud to be American.
It shows just 38% say they are “extremely proud” to be American and 27% say they are “very proud,” for a total of 65% of adults expressing pride in the nation.
The amount of Americans who feel extremely proud is at a historical low, down from 42% in 2020. However, the 65% who expressed pride is up two points from its lowest rate, which was also recorded in 2020.
Another 22% in the most recent poll say they are “moderately proud” and 9% are “only a little proud,” while 4% are “not at all” proud.
According to the poll, extreme national pride has been trending downward since 2015, before which, the lowest rate was 55% in 2001.
