According to the survey This is a weekly column rounds out three of the most important voting trends or data points you need to know. In addition to updating the database on past daily KOS reports, there will also be a check of the atmosphere of trends driving politics.
What about you, the Yemen War Plan?
It was a text chain asked around the world. On Monday, the Atlantic was the top editor. It was added by mistake With all the seriousness of the administration known to all that Trump administration officials are planning a highly sensitive military operation in Yemen.
“👊🇺🇸🔥” National Security Advisor Mike Waltz wrotein response to praise Vice President JD Vance for killing the “Top Missile Guy” of the Houthi Rebel Group.
After all, Americans are less on leaks, and more less.
Overall, 74% of US adults consider it a serious issue that Trump officials discussed sensitive war plans in uncategorized chats that include journalists. yougov. Only 13% don’t think that’s a problem.
This issue is primarily beyond partisanship. 90% of Democrats consider it a serious problem, as does 72% of independents. Even 60% of Republicans consider it a problem. Only 24% of Republicans who think they will text journalist-sensitive war plans are not so serious.
At the surface level, the violation recalls the 2015-16 “But Her Mail” scandal. As former President Barack Obama’s Secretary of State, Hillary Clinton used a private email server for official communications. It’s the FBI Cleaned her twice from criminal misconductRepublicans have denounced her on the issue. That’s coming I will rule the last day FBI Letters on the 2016 Presidential Election and Scandal It’s very likely She cost her the election and forced Donald Trump on all of us.
Given the harsh effects of the email scandal, you might expect it to be a big hit for Americans back then and perhaps beyond this week’s leak. If so, you’re wrong.
Early March 2015, a few days after the New York Times I broke the email storya Yougov poll 56% of Americans found that they consider her private email server to be a serious problem, but only 30% consider it “very serious.”
However, this poll has been invalidated. 1 month ago Clinton launched her presidential campaign. And before the “But Her Mail” scandal became a legendary (or nightmare). And when Yougov asked about it again in September 2022, 63% thought it was a serious problem, and 41% thought it was “very serious.”
But that’s still less than the response to the leaks of war plans.
This week’s leaked fiasco poll took place on Tuesday, a day after the first Atlantic story, with the outlet releasing a full transcript of chat on Wednesday. As the story develops and more people learn about it, the votes are very likely to move, but it’s hard to say in which direction.
Republicans, for example, were able to ease disapproval, as they did on January 6, 2021, about the riots. Three days after the attack, only 16% of Republicans approved the riot, yougov. By June 2022, 31% had been there. And now, denial of elections is essentially a prerequisite for Republican politicians.
In other words, don’t be surprised if you immediately see the worst Republicans who know they’re waving a flag with the words “👊🇺🇸🔥” written on them.

Elon Musk’s so-called government efficiency works on the wrong premise. Unlike the vision of Crony Capitalists of American small government, Americans believe it is important for the government to provide many services.
Data for Progress shows that an overwhelming 93% of voters want the government to offer social security-like benefits. It comes when the mask cut to the Social Security Agency has Basically, the system crashedI’m still out to pay (for now).
In fact, over 80% of Americans want the government to protect consumers from financial exploitation at the hands of banks, fully staffed in national parks and US forest services, and provide student loans to low-income Americans.
Musk and Trump cried out in each of those duties. In early February, the Trump administration set up the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau Stop workwhich will undoubtedly lead to more financial exploitation. Later that month they canned it Hundreds of national park workersthreatens business hours. And recently, they set it up Blasting the education departmentI’ll manage it Federal Student Loans.

Democrats think their party is downers.
The Democratic brand is in a rough place. New data from YouGov The majority of Democrats and democratic independences (58%) found that their party thought they hadn’t seen them at the moment. And 75% say the party isn’t challenging the GOP strong enough.
Only 54% of Democrats believe their party has a clear vision for the future. And their parties are looking for strong candidates (46%) and think they are good at conveying their message (45%). It has all of its trajectory since the party just lost its major elections and lacked an obvious leader for now. (Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are Mia, and Barack Obama is busy March Mudness Bracket. )
Don’t compare Republicans’ frustration with their party. They rate their party the least for respect for democratic norms and prioritizing the public interest over their own political interests. but, The lowest It’s meaningless low:60% of Republicans still give party parties in both regions.
What is the biggest gap between how partisans watch their parties? While 18% of Republicans believe their party lacks new leadership with fresh ideas, 62% of Democrats think their party is the same. The 44% point difference is undoubtedly for Democrats like Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer. It’s especially toxic After he fell into a Republican on the bill to fund the government.
