A new poll is shedding light on the distrust Americans feel towards the federal government and towards members of opposing political parties
Across party lines, over a quarter of voters – 28% – agreed that “it may be necessary at some point soon for citizens to take up arms against the government.” Thirty-seven percent of individuals in both parties who own a gun identified the same way. Just under half of all respondents said they felt “more and more […] like a stranger in my own country,” though the answers varied widely by political party: 69% of those who identified as “strong Republicans” and 65% of those who identified as “very conservative” saying they feel increasingly ostracized in the U.S. compared to just 38% of Democrats.
That evidence can be seen in the amount of Democrats and Republicans who believe their opposing party are “generally bullies who want to impose their political beliefs on those who disagree,” with 73% of Republicans agreeing and 74% of Democrats saying the same. Respondents from opposing parties had widely differing views on various cable news stations and social media platforms. Around 47% of total respondents said they believed CNN makes a “good faith effort” to report unbiased news, compared to 37% for Fox News and 22% for both Facebook and Instagram, though 52% of Americans across party lines said they frequently turned to Facebook as a source of news.
