Citizens in President Joe Biden’s (D) America are losing confidence in the United States military, according to a Gallup poll.
The report continued:
At 60%, confidence in the military was last this low in 1997, and it hasn’t been lower since 1988, when 58% were confident. From the late 1970s to the early 1980s — during the Cold War and amid threats to U.S. power, including the Iran hostage crisis — between 50% and 58% of Americans were confident in the military. Confidence generally improved during Ronald Reagan’s presidency in the 1980s. It then surged after the Gulf War victory and again after the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
Meanwhile, Republicans have been most likely to have confidence in the nation’s military over the past nearly 50 years. They currently feel that way, however, “the rate has declined by over 20 percentage points in three years, from 91% to 68%,” the Gallup poll stated.“While Democrats’ confidence rating did rise after President Joe Biden assumed office, those gains have disappeared in the past year,” the report noted.
More than half of American adults consider Memorial Day, which is for honoring those who have died while serving in the U.S. military, as one of the nation’s most important holidays. That percentage is up from 47 percent last year and is the highest percentage recorded since Rasmussen began asking about Memorial Day.
