Research shows that weekly columns round up 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.
Americans don’t support imperialist Trump
President Donald Trump wants to buy – or Forced to take– Greenland, the Gaza Strip and the Panama Canal in Canada. “We own it,” Trump said. I said He contains details of all known trademark policies in Gaza (none).
But the Americans aren’t here for that.
a New polls Progress data shows that it is likely that voters are opposed to the US taking ownership of each location. Voters are approaching splitting on the Panama Canal (41% support, 46% disagree). It’s turned over For the Panamas at the end of 1999. But when it comes to other places it’s not even close. 62% are against the idea, while only 23% want the US to control Gaza.
And even the majority of Republican voters (52%) disagree with Trump’s deployment of US troops to take Gaza.
Of course, that doesn’t end with Trump’s territorial expansionism. On the first day of his new term he signed Presidential Order Renamed the Gulf of Mexico as “American Gulf” (and Another order Everything is to create “American Gulf Day” on February 9th Must do This is stupid).
a New polls From Marquette University Law School –The best one In the voting game, only 29% support Trump’s rebranding of American Bay brands, while a staggering 71% oppose it. 57% of Republicans support it (of course), but only 16% of independents and 4% of Democrats do so.
With such numbers, Trump really should have left his first plan.
Billionaires, Billionaires, Billionaires – You and I are passing by
Billionaire Elon Musk saved him First oval office address You know this last Tuesday, despite not being president. And there’s a strong chance that Tesla guys are paranoid about their appeal to the American people.
73% of voters believe that billionaires have an impact on the federal government too much. New polls From data for progress. That includes the majority of Democrats (80%), independent or third party voters (80%), and Republicans (63%).
As for Musk himself, he believes he has too much influence, not only does he do a strong majority of Democrats (79%) and independent and third-party voters (65%). Even one in three Republicans think so.
And it generally follows with public opinion about billionaires. New Votes From Yougov, 55% of Americans believe that the government should try to close the wealth gap between the wealthiest and the poorest Americans, but the government should not. I think only 22% are thinking.
Even Wild believes that 49% of Americans should “try to reduce the proportion of wealth” held by American billionaires. This phrasing is more fundamentally progressive as it focuses on Take away the money From Ultrarich, and unlike previous questions, it doesn’t mention any poor Americans at all. Still, even one in three Republicans still support this type of government action. Only 27% of Americans oppose it.
To be fair, many respondents assume that this type of wealth reduction will be used to benefit those with less money. (In other words, if Ultrarich’s wealth share drops, those who are less rich will see their share rise.)
But there’s also the possibility that Americans don’t like billionaires. Pay attention to musks.
Five years of Covid-19
Covid-19 claims Over 1.2 million Americans’ lives This is the first time since January 1, 2020, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. And while the pandemic has declined primarily as a health threat, the damage to American families continues to this day. Important new research By the Pew Research Center, reflecting five years of Covid-19.
About one in four Americans said the pandemic has cost them a lot, and nearly one in two has made a small amount. Compared to the general public, Americans under the age of 50 are very likely to say they have made a huge sacrifice to them, just like Hispanic Americans.
44% of Americans say they have almost recovered from the tolls the pandemic has taken on them, but one in four has recovered slightly, with 6% not recovering at all.
The pandemic has fueled partisan disparities from Republicans’ rage over basic health precautions such as masking and vaccinating rage in Trump. I refuse to take the pandemic seriously. Pew’s data reflects the growing division in 2020. For example, in March 2020, similar stakes of Democrats (74%) and Republicans (84%) said that the CDC did a good or good job managing the crisis. However, by January 2022, only 26% of Republicans had the same view, while Democrats had little change (69%).
So, according to the latest Pew data, it makes sense that 72% of Americans agree that the pandemic has left the country even further.
However, more than one in ten Americans are primarily due to the pandemic We united the nation (Yes, really), an additional 16% said it had no effect on either method. But these people (27% combined) could say that many of the same people who say the pandemic has not paid any sacrifices on them (25%).
Are there any updates?

Trump and co. Testing the waters of constitutional crisis. Don’t follow court orders In pursuit of suffocating the federal government, they may face a great public backlash for it. Fifty-seven percent of Americans believe that the judge’s order outweighs the president’s order, while only 21 percent think that they are against it. New yougov polls. (And yes, 21% of that are made up primarily of Republicans. Republicans certainly had different opinions when Democrats were scribbling orders in the White House.)

Since Democrat Kamala Harris Lost Last year’s presidential election, Many people wonder If she was once again, perhaps the 2026 governor race of California. The new Emerson College poll for the Hill and California politics are good news for her. 57% of California Democrats say they support her if she runs for governor. Her closest competitor? Former Congressman Katie Porter, a Whiteboard enthusiast Who sits at 9%?
Vibrator check
It’s been five years since Covid-19 hit public awareness, but three years have passed since Americans stopped worrying a lot about it. January 17, 2022 was the last time a more registered voter was worried about the outbreak of local Covid-19. civiqs data.
Strangely enough, the net level of concern was recently marked in May 2024 from the lowest point of -71% points. Currently it is -55 points. perhaps Fear around bird flu It has been more common concerning outbreaks. It could be cyclical as concerns rose even last winter.
